Down counting mode
In this mode, the counter counts down continuously from the counter reload value, which is
defined in the TIMERx_CAR register, in a count-down direction. Once the counter reaches 0,
the counter restarts to count again from the counter reload value. If the repetition counter is
set, the update event will be generated after (TIME1) times of underflow.
Otherwise, the update event is generated each time when counter underflows. The counting
direction bit DIR in the TIMERx_CTL0 register should be set to 1 for the down-counting mode.
When the update event is set by the UPG bit in the TIMERx_SWEVG register, the counter
value will be initialized to the counter reload value and an update event will be generated.
If the UPDIS bit in TIMERx_CTL0 register is set, the update event is disabled.
When an update event occurs, all the registers (repetition counter register, auto reload
register, prescaler register) are updated.
Figure 15-6. Timing chart of down counting mode, PSC=0/1
and
chart of down counting mode, change TIMERx_CAR ongoing
show some examples of
the counter behavior in different clock frequencies when TIMERx_CAR = 0x63.
