Register Definitions
11.9.7.2 Global Timer Current Count Registers (GTCCRs)
The GTCRRs contain the current count for each of the four EPIC timers. Note that these
registers are read-only. The address offsets from EUMBBAR for the GTCCRs are
described in Table 11-12.
Figure 11-11 shows the bits of the GTCCRs.
Figure 11-11. Global Timer Current Count Register (GTCCR)
Table 11-13 describes the bit settings for the GTCCRs.
11.9.7.3 Global Timer Base Count Registers (GTBCRs)
The GTBCRs contain the base count for each of the four EPIC timers. This is the value
reloaded into the GTCCRs when they count down to zero. Note that these registers are
read/write. The address offsets from EUMBBAR for the GTBCRs are described in
Table 11-14.

Toggle. This bit toggles whenever the current count decrements to zero.
30–0
COUNT
All 0s
Current timer count. This 31-bit field is decremented while the GTBCR[CI] bit is
zero. When the timer counts down to zero, this field is reloaded from the base
count register, the toggle bit is inverted, and an interrupt is generated (provided it
is not masked).
