4.3.3.3 Periodic Interrupt Timer Register (PITR)

The periodic interrupt timer register (PITR), shown in Figure4-40, is a read-only r egister that shows the

current value in the periodic interrupt down counter. The PITR counter is not affected by reads or writes

to it.

Bits Name Description
0–15 PITC Periodic interrupt timing count. Bits 0–15 are defined as the PITC, which contains the count for the
periodic timer. Setting PITC to 0xFFFF selects the maximum count period.
16–31 Reserved, should be cleared.
