+       Values 1 - 14 use a counter that decrements every cycle to generate a
+       timestamp on underflow. The reload value for the counter is 2 raised to
+       the power of timestamp interval - 1. If the value is 1 then the reload
+       value is 1, if the value is 11 then the reload value is 1024 etc.
+
+       Setting the minimum interval (15) will disable the counter generated
+       timestamps, freeing the counter resource, leaving only ones emitted when
+       a SYNC packet is generated for every 4096 bytes of trace.
