<Count clock-dependent delay>
• Because the timer operates synchronously with the count clock, there is a count clock-dependent delay
from when the timer is enabled till when it actually starts operating. In operation mode where the F/F output
is inverted when the timer is enabled, there is also a count clock-dependent delay before the F/F output is
inverted.
