#84417 - Getting the timers value into decimal
I'm using the Atmel AT89C51CC02 with Keil IDE.

When an external event triggers an interrupt to stop the timer and i then store the values; how can i output the current time value to the screen in decimal format. i.e. if:

TH0 = 1F;
TL0 = FF;

This would correspond to 8191 in decimal (1x16^3 + 15x16^2 + 15x16^1 +15x16^0), which, if the timer runs at 12MHz would give me time of 8.2mS (rounded up) which i would like to display onto the screen.

Is there an easier way of doing it using C code instead of using Assembly? I always find programming the 8051 much easier using C!

I have looked in the code library but the example seems a little complicated for me? is there a simpler way?? any suggestions?
