move.l #0x0000,D0;writing to the timer counter with any
move.l DO,TCN0 ;value resets it to zero
move.l #0xAFAF,DO ;set the timer0 reference to be
move.l #D0,TRR0 ;defined as 0xAFAF
The simple example below uses Timer0 to count time-out loops. A time-out occurs when the reference
value, 0xAFAF, is reached.

clr.l DO
clr.l D1
clr.l D2
move.l #0x0000,D0
move.l D0,TCN0
;reset the counter to 0x0000
move.b #0x03,D0
;writing ones to TER0[REF,CAP]
move.b D0,TER0
;clears the event flags
move.w TMR0,D0
;save the contents of TMR0 while setting
bset #0,D0
;the 0 bit. This enables timer 0 and starts counting
move.w D0,TMR0
;load the value back into the register, setting TMR0[RST]
T0_LOOP
move.b TER0,D1
;load TER0 and see if
btst #1,D1
;TER0[REF] has been set
beq T0_LOOP
addi.l #1,D2
;Increment D2
cmp.l #5,D2
;Did D2 reach 5? (i.e. timer ref has timed)
beq T0_FINISH
;If so, end timer0 example. Otherwise jump back.
move.b #0x02,D0
;writing one to TER0[REF] clears the event flag
move.b D0,TER0

Calculating Time-Out Values
determines time-out periods for various reference values:
Eqn. 21-1
When calculating time-out periods, add 1 to the prescaler to simplify calculating, because
DTMR
n
[PS] equals 0x00 yields a prescaler of 1, and DTMR
n
[PS] equals 0xFF yields a prescaler of 256.
For example, if a 66-MHz timer clock is divided by 16, DTMR
n
[PS] equals 0x7F, and the timer is
referenced at 0xFBC5 (64453 decimal), the time-out period is:
