Abstract
A programmable counter/timer is responsive to signals on a data line for producing signals on one or more output lines and includes a counter connected to the data line, a comparator connected to said counter for producing a control signal when said counter reaches a stored preselected value, and a qualification unit connected to the comparator, the qualification unit having a register for storing a logic state. The qualification unit is responsive to the control signal and the stored logic state for generating a signal on selected output lines when the counter reaches the predetermined stored value.
