External clock
The external clock (where available) is selected if CC0 = 1 and CC1 = 1 in the CR2 register.
The status of the EXEDG bit in the CR2 register determines the type of level transition on
the external clock pin EXTCLK that will trigger the free running counter.
The counter is synchronized with the falling edge of the internal CPU clock.
A minimum of four falling edges of the CPU clock must occur between two consecutive
active edges of the external clock; thus the external clock frequency must be less than a
quarter of the CPU clock frequency.

The MCU is in reset state when the internal reset signal is high, when it is low the MCU is
running.
