Bits Field Description
15-0 TIM CPU-Timer Counter Registers (TIMH:TIM): The TIM register holds the low 16 bits of the current 32-bit count
of the timer. The TIMH register holds the high 16 bits of the current 32-bit count of the timer. The TIMH:TIM
decrements by one every (TDDRH:TDDR+1) clock cycles, where TDDRH:TDDR is the timer prescale divide-
down value. When the TIMH:TIM decrements to zero, the TIMH:TIM register is reloaded with the period
value contained in the PRDH:PRD registers. The timer interrupt (TINT) signal is generated.

Table 1-34. TIMERxPRD Register Field Descriptions
Bits Field Description
15-0 PRD CPU-Timer Period Registers (PRDH:PRD): The PRD register holds the low 16 bits of the 32-bit period. The
PRDH register holds the high 16 bits of the 32-bit period. When the TIMH:TIM decrements to zero, the
TIMH:TIM register is reloaded with the period value contained in the PRDH:PRD registers, at the start of
the next timer input clock cycle (the output of the prescaler). The PRDH:PRD contents are also loaded into
the TIMH:TIM when you set the timer reload bit (TRB) in the Timer Control Register (TCR).
