@ -7,8 +7,29 @@ allows measurement of time durations rather than cycles. If for
|
||||
example setting the prescaler to the clock frequency in Hertz, the
|
||||
timer will count seconds.
|
||||
|
||||
## API
|
||||
|
||||
The following addresses define the API for the timer:
|
||||
|
||||
```
|
||||
ADDR_CTRL: 0x08
|
||||
CTRL_START_BIT: 0
|
||||
CTRL_STOP_BIT: 1
|
||||
|
||||
ADDR_STATUS: 0x09
|
||||
STATUS_RUNNING_BIT: 0
|
||||
|
||||
ADDR_PRESCALER: 0x0a
|
||||
ADDR_TIMER: 0x0b
|
||||
```
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Details
|
||||
The core consists of the timer_core module (in timer_core.v) and a top
|
||||
level wrapper, timer (in timer.v). The top level wrapper implements
|
||||
the API, while the timer_core implements the actual timer
|
||||
functionality.
|
||||
|
||||
The timer counter and the prescaler counter are both 32 bits.
|
||||
When enabled the counter counts down one integer value per cycle.
