Split
Timer
Mode
(mode 3)
Timer
mode "3"
is a
split-timer
mode.
When
Timer 0
is
placed
in mode
3, it
essentially
becomes
two
separate
8-bit
timers.
That is
to say,
Timer 0
is TL0
and
Timer 1
is TH0.
Both
timers
count
from 0
to 255
and
overflow
back to
0. All
the bits
that are
related
to Timer
1 will
now be
tied to
TH0.
