Section 10 Timer A
Timer A is an 8-bit timer with interval timing and real-time clock time-base functions. The clock
time-base function is available when a 32.768kHz crystal oscillator is connected. Figure 10-1
shows a block diagram of timer A.

Features
•
Timer A can be used as an interval timer or a clock time base.
•
An interrupt is requested when the counter overflows.
•
Any of eight clock signals can be output from pin TMOW: 32.768 kHz divided by 32, 16, 8, or
4 (1 kHz, 2 kHz, 4 kHz, 8 kHz), or the system clock divided by 32, 16, 8, or 4.
