Figure 5-2: Timer/Counter Auxiliary Mode Control register (TAMOD)

Mode 0

Putting either Timer into Mode 0 makes it look like an 8048 Timer, which is an 8-bit Counter with a divide-by-32 prescaler. Figure 5-4 shows Mode 0 operation.

In this mode, the Timer register is configured as a 13-bit register. As the count rolls over from all 1s to all 0s, it sets the Timer interrupt flag TFn. The count input is enabled to the Timer when TRn = 1. TRn is a control bit in the Special Function Register TCON (Figure 5-3).

The 13-bit register consists of all 8 bits of THn and the lower 5 bits of TLn. The upper 3 bits of TLn are indeterminate and should be ignored. Setting the run flag (TRn) does not clear the registers.

Mode 0 operation is the same for Timer 0 and Timer 1. See Figure 5-4.

Mode 1 is the same as Mode 0, except that all 16 bits of the timer register (THn and TLn) are used. See Figure 5-5.

Mode 2

Mode 2 configures the Timer register as an 8-bit Counter (TLn) with automatic reload, as shown in Figure 5-6. Overflow from TLn not only sets TFn, but also reloads TLn with the contents of THn, which must be preset by software. The reload leaves THn unchanged. Mode 2 operation is the same for Timer 0 and Timer 1.
