10.3.2 Compare Match Timing
Setting of Compare Match Flags A and B (CMFA, CMFB): The CMFA and CMFB flags in
TCSR are set to 1 by a compare match signal generated when the TCOR and TCNT values match.
The compare match signal is generated at the last state in which the match is true, just before the
timer counter is updated.
Therefore, when TCOR and TCNT match, the compare match signal is not generated until the
next incrementation clock input. Figure 10.4 shows this timing.
