Figure 51 shows the count sequence close to TOP in various modes. When using phase
and frequency correct PWM mode the OCR1x 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 TOV1 flag at
BOTTOM.
