Programmable timers can be used to count or time external events that drive the timer input pins. The MSP432E4 general-purpose timer module (GPTM) contains 16- or 32-bit GPTM blocks. Each 16- or 32-bit GPTM block provides two 16-bit timers or counters (referred to as Timer A and Timer B) that can be configured to operate independently as timers or event counters, or concatenated to operate as one 32-bit timer or one 32-bit real-time clock (RTC). Timers can also be used to trigger µDMA transfers.
