IMERS
There are two timers—Timer A and Timer B. Timer A is intended mainly for generating
the baud clock for the serial ports, a periodic clock for clocking parallel ports D and E, or
for generating periodic interrupts. Timer B can be used for the same functions, but it can-
not generate the baud clock. Timer B is more flexible when it can be used because the pro-
gram can read the time from a continuously running counter and events can be
programmed to occur at a specified future time.
Figure 11-1 shows a block diagram of Timers A and B.
