9.7.5
Contention between Counter Clearing by Input Capture and Counter Increment
If an input capture signal and counter increment signal occur simultaneously, counter clearing by
the input capture signal takes priority and the counter is not incremented. The value before the
counter is cleared is transferred to TCORB. Figure 9.22 shows the timing in this case.
