source.
(2) If an underflow occurs, the content of the reload register is reloaded, and the count continues.
At this time, the timer Ai interrupt request bit goes to "1".
(3) If switching from an up count to a down count or vice versa while a count is in progress, the
switch takes effect from the next effective edge of the count source.
(4) Setting the count start flag to "0" causes the counter to hold its value and to stop.
(5) If an overflow occurs, the content of the reload register is reloaded, and the count continues.
At this time, the timer Ai interrupt request bit goes to "1".
