11.8.3 16-Bit Timer/Counter 3 Mode
The 16-bit timer/counter mode is selected by control register as shown in Figure 11.31.
The 16-bit timer have counter and data register. The counter register is increased by internal or external clock
input. Timer 3 can use the input clock with one of 2, 4, 8, 32, 128, 512 and 2048 prescaler division rates
(T3CK[2:0]).
A 16-bit timer/counter register T3CNT, T4CNT are incremented from 0000H to FFFFH until it matches T3DR,
T4DR and then cleared to 0000H. The match signal output generates the Timer 3 Interrupt (No timer 4 interrupt).
The clock source is selected from T3CK[2:0] and 16BIT bit must be set to ‘1’. Timer 3 is LSB 8-bit, the timer 4 is
MSB 8-bit.
The external clock (EC3) counts up the timer at the rising edge. If the EC3 is selected as a clock source by
T3CK[2:0], EC3 port should be set to the input port by P00IO bit.
