Even if the TE bit is cleared to zero, the TF bit value
is held as

"1". Also, the /INT pin is not canceled.

The TF bit value is held until it is directly cleared to
zero.

When the TF bit is cleared to
zero, /INT is canceled.

The fixed-cycle timer function starts (the countdown starts) when the TE bit value changes

from

"0" to "1".

Before starting the fixed-cycle timer interrupt function each time, be sure to write a value

(preset value/Reg-0F[h]) as the timer's down counter value (when TE

=

"0").

Before starting the fixed-cycle timer interrupt function each time, be sure to write a value (preset value/Reg-0F[h])

as the timer's down counter value (when TE

=

"0").

(Note)

Note with caution that the preset value must be set or reset to enable correct operation.

Before entering operation settings, we recommend

first clearing the TE bit to "0"

and then clearing the TF and

TIE

bits to "0" in that order, so that all control-related bits are zero-cleared (=

set to operation stop mode) to prevent

hardware interrupts from occurring inadvertently while entering settings.




(1)

When the TE bit value is changed from "0" to 1", the fixed-cycle timer's countdown begins.

(2) A fixed-cycle timer interrupt event occurs when the down counter value goes from 01h to 00h during a

countdown in which the down counter's count value is decremented at each source clock cycle.

(3) When a fixed-cycle timer interrupt event occurs, the TF bit value is changed to "1".

(4) If the TIE bit = "1" when a fixed-cycle timer interrupt occurs, /TIRQ pin output goes low.

If the TIE bit = "0" when a fixed-cycle timer interrupt occurs, /TIRQ pin output remains Hi-Z.

(5) During the period when the TF bit value is "1" following the occurrence of an interrupt event, the TIE bit can be

set to switch the /INT pin to any status.

(6)

As long as the TE bit value remains “1", the operation sequence "countdown by timer's down counter

internal

event processing

loading of preset value

countdown…" is repeated regardless of the operation mode, etc.

However, this operation sequence has no effect unless the TF bit has been cleared to zero.

If the TE bit value remains "1" and only the TF bit is cleared to zero, (the fixed-cycle timer continues to

operate), note with caution that an interrupt event will occur the next time the counter value changes from
01h to 00h (the TF bit will become "1"

again and the /INT pin status will be

"L").

(6)

When the TF bit = "1" its value is retained until it is cleared to zero.

Even when the TE bit is cleared to zero, the TF bit value is retained as

"1" and the /INT pin status is not reset.

(7)

After the TF bit is cleared to zero, the /TIRQ pin is set to Hi-Z status regardless of the TIE bit's value.
