7.6.6 Countdown timer
The timer register is an 8-bit binary countdown timer. It is enabled and disabled via the
timer control register bit TE. The source clock for the timer is also selected by the timer
control register. Other timer properties such as interrupt generation are controlled via
control_status_2 register.
For accurate read back of the countdown value, the I2C-bus clock (SCL) must be
operating at a frequency of at least twice the selected timer clock.
