12.5 Counter States
The states of the counter are determined by the CNTE bit of the control register and
the internal Wait signal as follows:
CNTE = "0", Wait = "1": Stop state
CNTE = "1", Wait = "1": Wait state (start trigger wait state)
CNTE = "1", Wait = "0": Run state
Figure 12.5-1 is a state transition diagram.
