Ok so I have this project that I will have to count 1 Million cycles on a part. Unfortunately the ML1100 counters max preset is only 32767, by my math I will need a total of 31 counters! The test has to last 6 seconds, then I plan to use the timer done bit to count. While I have been testing using just 2 counters, what I have happening is that when T1 is done counting it is also allowing T2 to count at that same time. What needs to happen is when T1 finishes its count, T2 should not count until the next cycle complete.
Unless there is a better way to do this 1 Mil test and keep count of cycles complete than with 31 counters, I'm not sure of a good way to accomplish this with out that many counters. I will need a way to separate the counting between one counter being done and the next not counting until the following cycle complete. Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks
