MOTOROLA
TS bit in TCSR is set and, if the TIE is set, an interrupt is generated.The counter is reload-
ed with the value contained by the TCR and the entire process is repeated until the timer
is disabled (TE=0). Each time the counter reaches 0, the TIO output pin will be toggled.
The INV bit determines the polarity of the TIO output. Figure 13 illustrates Timer Mode 2.

Timer Mode 4 (Pulse Width Measurement Mode)
Timer Mode 4 is defined by TC2-TC0 equal to 100.
In this mode, TIO acts as a gating signal for the DSP’s internal clock. With the timer en-
abled (TE=1), the counter is driven by a clock derived from the DSP’s internal clock
divided by two (CLK/2). The counter is loaded with 0 by the first transition occurring on the
TIO input pin and starts incrementing. When the first edge of opposite polarity occurs on
TIO, the counter stops, the TS bit in TCSR is set and, if TIE is set, an interrupt is gener-
ated. The contents of the counter is loaded into the TCR. The user’s program can read
the TCR, which now represents the widths of the TIO pulse. The process is repeated until
the timer is disabled (TE=0).The INV bit determines whether the counting is enabled when
TIO is high (INV=0) or when TIO is low (INV=1). Figure 14 illustrates Timer Mode 4 when
INV=0 and Figure 15 illustrates Timer Mode 4 with INV=1.
