Timer Delay Calculation for XTAL

= 11.0592 MHz
(a) in hex
• (FFFF – YYXX + 1) × 1.085 s
• where YYXX are TH, TL initial values
respectively.
• Notice that values YYXX are in hex.

(b) in decimal
• Convert YYXX values of the TH, TL register to
decimal to get a NNNNN decimal number
• then (65536 – NNNNN) × 1.085 s
Program (1/3)
• square wave of 50% duty on P1.5
• Timer 0 is used

;each loop is a half clock


MOV TMOD,#01 ;Timer 0,mode 1(16-bit)
HERE: MOV TL0,#0F2H ;Timer value = FFF2H
MOV TH0,#0FFH
CPL P1.5
ACALL DELAY P1.5
SJMP HERE
50% 50%
whole clock
Program (2/3)
;generate delay using timer 0
DELAY:
SETB TR0 ;start the timer 0
AGAIN:JNB TF0,AGAIN
CLR TR0 ;stop timer 0
CLR TF0 ;clear timer 0 flag
RET

FFF2 FFF3 FFF4 FFFF 0000

TF0 = 0 TF0 = 0 TF0 = 0 TF0 = 0 TF0 = 1


Program (3/3)
Solution:
In the above program notice the following steps.
1. TMOD = 0000 0001 is loaded.
2. FFF2H is loaded into TH0 – TL0.
3. P1.5 is toggled for the high and low portions of the pulse.
4. The DELAY subroutine using the timer is called.
5. In the DELAY subroutine, timer 0 is started by the “SETB TR0”
instruction.
6. Timer 0 counts up with the passing of each clock, which is provided by the
crystal oscillator.
As the timer counts up, it goes through the states of FFF3, FFF4, FFF5, FFF6,
FFF7, FFF8, FFF9, FFFA, FFFB, FFFC, FFFFD, FFFE, FFFFH. One more
clock rolls it to 0, raising the timer flag (TF0 = 1). At that point, the JNB
instruction falls through.
7. Timer 0 is stopped by the instruction “CLR TR0”. The DELAY subroutine
ends, and the process is repeated.

Notice that to repeat the process, we must reload the TL and TH


registers, and start the timer again (in the main program).
Program (1/2)
• This program generates a square wave on pin P1.5 Using timer 1
• Find the frequency.(dont include the overhead of instruction delay)
• XTAL = 11.0592 MHz

MOV TMOD,#10H ;timer 1, mode 1


AGAIN:MOV TL1,#34H ;timer value=3476H
MOV TH1,#76H
SETB TR1 ;start
BACK: JNB TF1,BACK
CLR TR1 ;stop
CPL P1.5 ;next half clock
CLR TF1 ;clear timer flag 1
SJMP AGAIN ;reload timer1
Program (2/2)
Solution:
FFFFH – 7634H + 1 = 89CCH = 35276 clock
count
Half period = 35276 × 1.085 s = 38.274 ms
Whole period = 2 × 38.274 ms = 76.548 ms
Frequency = 1/ 76.548 ms = 13.064 Hz.

Note
Mode 1 is not auto reload then the program must
reload the TH1, TL1 register every timer overflow if we
want to have a continuous wave.
