Figure 17-12 shows the count sequence close to TOP in various modes. When using phase and frequency correct
PWM mode the OCRnx Register is updated at BOTTOM. The timing diagrams will be the same, but TOP should
be replaced by BOTTOM, TOP-1 by BOTTOM+1 and so on. The same renaming applies for modes that set the
TOVn Flag at BOTTOM.

Figure 17-13 shows the same timing data, but with the prescaler enabled.
