ABSTRACT:
A timer including a counter circuit that continuously provides an output of an iteratively increasing sequence of bits. The timer includes a timeout data circuit that forms a timeout data word from a specified time period and a first counter circuit output. A register is provided that stores the timeout data word at an address formed from a second counter circuit output. A comparison circuit is provided that compares each counter output with a timeout data word at the address formed from that counter output and provides a timeout signal when they are equal. This timer includes a constantly incrementing counter to address a register that includes a multiple of timeout condition specifications, and as a determination of when the timeout conditions stored in the register occur.
