• COUNTFLAG
Returns 1 if timer counted to 0 since last time this was read.
• CLKSOURCE
Indicates the clock source:
0: MCK/8
1: MCK
• TICKINT
Enables SysTick exception request:
0: counting down to zero does not assert the SysTick exception request
1: counting down to zero to asserts the SysTick exception request.
Software can use COUNTFLAG to determine if SysTick has ever counted to zero.
• ENABLE
Enables the counter:
0: counter disabled
1: counter enabled.
When ENABLE is set to 1, the counter loads the RELOAD value from the LOAD register and then counts down. On reach-
ing 0, it sets the COUNTFLAG to 1 and optionally asserts the SysTick depending on the value of TICKINT. It then loads the
RELOAD value again, and begins counting.
