— Clock frequency divider with multiplexer
– fxx divided by 512, 256, 64, 8 or 1, fxt, and T1CLK (External clock) for timer A
– fxx divided by 512, 256, 64, 8 or 1, and fxt for timer B
— 8-bit counter (TACNT, TBCNT), 8-bit comparator, and 8-bit reference data register (TADATA, TBDATA)
— Timer A have I/O pin for match output (TAOUT)
— Timer A match interrupt generation
— Timer A control register, TACON (page 0, BBH, read/write)
— Timer B match interrupt generation
— Timer B control register, TBCON (page 0, BAH, read/write)
