10.4 12-bit Interval Timer Operation
10.4.1 12-bit interval timer operation timing
The count value specified for the ITCMP11 to ITCMP0 bits is used as an interval to operate an 12-bit interval timer
that repeatedly generates interrupt requests (INTIT).
When the RINTE bit is set to 1, the 12-bit counter starts counting.
When the 12-bit counter value matches the value specified for the ITCMP11 to ITCMP0 bits, the 12-bit counter value
is cleared to 0, counting continues, and an interrupt request signal (INTIT) is generated at the same time.
The basic operation of the 12-bit interval timer is as follows.

Counting starts at the rising edge of the first cycle of
the count clock signal after the RINTE bit is set to 1.
