27.4.1.2 Debug mode
In Debug mode the timers will be frozen. This is intended to aid software development, allowing the
developer to halt the processor, investigate the current state of the system (for example, the timer values)
and then continue the operation.
27.4.2 Interrupts
All of the timers support interrupt generation. Refer to the MCU specification for related vector addresses
and priorities.
Timer interrupts can be disabled by setting the TIE bits to zero. The timer interrupt flags (TIF) are set to 1
when a timeout occurs on the associated timer, and are cleared to 0 by writing a 1 to that TIF bit.
