Counter n Internal Output and Counter n TC Signals
Counter n TC is an internal signal that asserts when the counter value is 0.
The Counter n Internal Output signal changes in response to Counter n TC.
The two software-selectable output options are pulse on TC and toggle
output polarity on TC. The output polarity is software-selectable for both
options.

You can route Counter n Internal Output to any PFI <4..7> or PFI <12..15>
