These registers select the timeout period for the timer interrupts.

PIT_LDVALn field descriptions
Field Description
TSV Timer Start Value
Sets the timer start value. The timer will count down until it reaches 0, then it will generate an interrupt and
load this register value again. Writing a new value to this register will not restart the timer; instead the
value will be loaded after the timer expires. To abort the current cycle and start a timer period with the new
value, the timer must be disabled and enabled again.
40.3.3 Current Timer Value Register (PIT_CVALn)
These registers indicate the current timer position.

Field Description
TVL Current Timer Value
Represents the current timer value, if the timer is enabled.
NOTE:
• If the timer is disabled, do not use this field as its value is unreliable.
• The timer uses a downcounter. The timer values are frozen in Debug mode if MCR[FRZ] is
set.
