NOTE 1: ts-s = time from 1st start pulse in one frame to next start pulse in the next frame.
NOTE 2: Start pulse can start anywhere in the 4.5 ms frame. The stop pulse will follow at the correct time.
The ts-s is not consistent. The user does not have the 4.5 ms frame as a reference. The user must
use the watchdog timeout during the pause frame to “sync up”. The watchdog timer should be reset
on both the start and stop pulse.
NOTE: Although the timebase is generated with a crystal oscillator, the times shown are NOT exact times.
Also, the initial pulse within a window of the frame does not start at the beginning of the window. See
Section 3.1: Synchronizing with a Watchdog Timer and footnote 3 for more information.
