Appendix B: Register Details
Register (mpcore) Global_Timer_Control_Register
Register Global_Timer_Control_Register Details
Name Global_Timer_Control_Register
Relative Address 0x00000208
Absolute Address 0xF8F00208
Width 32 bits
Access Type rw
Reset Value 0x00000000
Description Global Timer Control Register
Field Name Bits Type Reset Value Description
reserved 31:16 rw 0x0 Reserved
Prescaler 15:8 rw 0x0 The prescaler modifies the clock period for the
decrementing event for the Counter
Register. The timer interval is calculated using the
following equation:
(PRESCALER_value+1)*(Load_value+1)*(CPU_3
x2x PERIOD)
reserved 7:4 rw 0x0 Reserved
3 rw 0x0 This bit is banked per Cortex-A9 processor.
1'b0: single shot mode.
When the counter reaches the comparator value,
sets the event flag. It is the responsibility
of software to update the comparator value to get
further events.
1'b1: auto increment mode.
Each time the counter reaches the comparator
value, the comparator register is
incremented with the auto-increment register, so
that further events can be set periodically
without any software updates.
IRQ_Enable 2 rw 0x0 This bit is banked per Cortex-A9 processor.
If set, the interrupt ID 27 is set as pending in the
Interrupt Distributor when the event flag
is set in the Timer Status Register.
