Note: When the real-time clock time base function is selected as the internal clock of TCA in
active mode or sleep mode, the internal clock is not synchronous with the system clock, so
it is synchronized by a synchronizing circuit. This may result in a maximum error of 1/φ (s) in
the count cycle.
9.2.5 Application Note
When bit 0 (TACKSTP) of the clock stop register 1 (CKSTPR1) is cleared to 0, bit 3 (TMA3) of
the timer mode register A (TMA) cannot be rewritten.
Set bit 0 (TACKSTP) of the clock stop register 1 (CKSTPR1) to 1 before rewriting bit 3 (TMA3)
of the timer mode register A (TMA).
