MIR3: Power Down Length Count [15:8] (PDLC)

This register is used to determine the length of power down cycles. Before execution of the power down se- quence, the 80188 core must load the PDLC counter.

Upon execution of the power down sequence, the PDLC value will be counted down to zero and the power down cycle will end.

PDLC[15:8]

00h

Middle 8 bits of the length of the power down counter. The resolu-

 

 

 

tion of the power down length counter is in increments of PMX1/2

 

 

 

periods. The nominal PMX1/2 crystal value is 32.768 kHz, resulting

 

 

 

in a resolution of 31.25 μs.

MIR4: Power Down Length Count [22:16] (PDLC)

This register is used to determine the length of power down cycles. Before execution of the power down se- quence, the 80188 core must load the PDLC counter.

Upon execution of the power down sequence, the PDLC value will be counted down to zero and the power down cycle will end.

PERMAREST

0

When set to a 1, this bit prevents the normal termination of the

 

 

 

power down sequence, such that the PDLC and PUCT counts are

 

 

 

ignored, and the power down mode is only exited when the

 

 

 

PCMCIA PWRDWN bit is written with a 0, or when the SIR0

 

 

 

DISPWDN bit is written with a 1.

6:0

PDLC[22:16]

00h

Upper 7 bits of the length of the power down counter. The resolution

 

 

 

of the power down length counter is in increments of PMX1/2 peri-

ods. The nominal PMX1/2 crystal value is 32.768 kHz, resulting in a resolution of 31.25 μs.

MIR5: Free Count [7:0] (FCNT)

This register is a read-only register. Do not write to this register or unexpected consequences will result.

This register gives the value of the lowest byte of the free running count. The free running count is a 24-bit counter

that uses the PMX1/2 clock as its basis. The free run- ning count is reset only when the reset pin is asserted. Timer resolution is 31.25 μs when PMX1/2 has a fre- quency of 32.768 kHz.

MIR6: Free Count [15:8] (FCNT)

This register gives the value of the lowest byte of the free running count. The free running count is a 24-bit counter that uses the 32 kHz clock as its basis. The free running

count is reset only when the reset pin is asserted. Timer resolution is 31.25 μs when PMX1/2 has a frequency of 32.768 kHz.

This register gives the value of the lowest byte of the free running count. The free running count is a 24-bit counter that uses the 32 kHz clock as its basis. The free running

count is reset only when the reset pin is asserted. Timer resolution is 31.25 μs when PMX1/2 has a frequency of 32.768 kHz.
