programmable counter

    0.01 sec.
programmable counter [prō′gram·ə·bəl ′kau̇nt·ər]
(electronics)
A counter that divides an input frequency by a number which can be programmed into decades of synchronous down counters; these decades, with additional decoding and control logic, give the equivalent of a divide-by-Ncounter system, whereNcan be made equal to any number.

[ILLUSTRATION OMITTED] Sensors detect a spark's infrared radiation and automatically activate programmable counter measures: extinguishment, deluge, abort gates or automatic machinery shutdown.
Other peripherals include a 16-bit Programmable Counter Array (PCA), an 8-channel 10-bit resolution analog-to-digital converter, SPI and IrDA interfaces, six PWM (pulse-width modulated) channels, an I2C (Intelligent Interface Controller) master/slave bus controller, two standard UARTs (Universal Asynchronous Receiver/Transmitter), supervisory functions such as a watchdog timer and low-voltage detect, and up to 45 general-purpose I/O pins.
The CPU combined with the programmable counter array (PCA) also allows a customer to implement proprietary and custom interface protocols without requiring an ASIC.
