Intel386™ EX EMBEDDED PROCESSOR USER’S MANUAL

Therefore, the OUTn signals can drive external devices, generate interrupt
requests, initiate DMA transactions or combinations of the three.
Each counter operates independently. Six different counting modes are available and two count
formats: binary (16 bits) or BCD (4 decades). Each operating mode allows you to program the
counter with an initial count and to change this value “on the fly.” You can determine the count
and status of each counter without disturbing its current operation.
