MULTIMEDIA TIMER I/O SPACE REGISTERS
TABLE 70 TMSTAT (RW/RO) - MULTIMEDIA TIMER STATUS REGISTER
MULTIMEDIA TIMER COUNT REGISTERS
There are three registers required to hold the timer value. These three registers can be read at different cycles, It is rec-
ommended that the least significant byte be read first for the most accuracy.
TABLE 71 TMCOUNT2 (RW/RO) - MULTIMEDIA TIMER COUNT REGISTER 2
2 FSTCLK RW Fast Clock Enable. When set, the timer counter will use the CCLK clock
instead of the 570 ns clock. This function will reduce the simulation and test
time of the device.
1 TMRRST RW Timer Reset. When set, this bit holds the multimedia timer in reset. The mul-
timedia timer is also reset by the system reset.
0 R RO Reserved. This bit returns a zero.

7:4 R RO Reserved. These bits return zeros.
3 TPLD RW Timer Preload Indicator. When set, this indicates the timer will start counting
from the values set in the timer count registers. When cleared, the timer will
start counting from zero or its last value when stopped
2 TRESUME RW Timer Resume. When set, the timer will resume counting at the next 570 ns
clock edge. When cleared, the timer will stop counting.
1 TMINT WC Timer Interrupt. When asserted, the multimedia timer has flagged an inter-
rupt when the timer has counted to zero. The timer will continue to count.
Writing a one to this bit will clear the interrupt.
0 TINTEN RW Timer Interrupt Enable. When set, the multimedia timer will generate an inter-
rupt.
