+title: VIA/Wondermedia VT8500 Timer
+
+description:
+ This is the timer block that is a standalone part of the system power
+ management controller on VIA/WonderMedia SoCs (VIA VT8500 and alike).
+ The hardware has a single 32-bit counter running at 3 MHz and four match
+ registers, each of which is associated with a dedicated match interrupt,
+ and the first of which can also serve as the system watchdog (if the
+ watchdog function is enabled, it will reset the system upon match instead
+ of triggering its respective interrupt)
