DSP5416时钟配制，片内定时器是一个软件可编程定时器，可以用来产生周期的中断信号。 定时器主要由 3 个寄存器所组成：定时器寄存器（TIM） 、定时器周期寄存器（PRD）和时器控制寄存器（TCR） 。这 3 个寄存器都有映象寄存器，它们在数据存储器中的地址分别24H、25H 和 26H。TIM 是一个递减计数器；PRD 中存放计数值；TCR 中有定时器的控制和状态位-DSP 5416 timer configuring,A timepiece, especially one used for measuring and signaling the end of time intervals, as on a stove.

Four registers that function as a single register. In hardware, it often represents a register. For example, the B box, the subscr ipt box. One register might contain status describing an error.A flag bit in the status register of the central processing unit, used to show a negative result from an arithmetic operation.Software running on the CPU must be able to read and write those controlling registers. However, the number of registers is severely limited, so registers are allocated by the compiler according to its needs. A register consisting of a flip flop which stores binary data.
