8051 timer for atmel at89c52 or At89s52

Timer 1 Example Program
=======================

This example program shows how to configure timer/counter 1 as an
8-bit timer.  An interrupt service routine (ISR) is invoked each
time the timer overflows (goes from 0xFF to 0x00).  Inside the
ISR, a variable called overflow_count is incremented by one.

To test this program...

1. Start the debugger.
2. Set a breakpoint on the 'overflow_count++' line in the ISR.
3. Run the program.

Each time the interrupt routine is invoked, the debugger will stop
running the program.  Position the cursor over 'overflow_count' to
see its current value.
