26.13.10 Period
The RTC.PERL and RTC.PERH register pair represents the 16-bit value,
RTC.PER. The low byte [7:0] (suffix L) is accessible at the
original offset. The high byte [15:8] (suffix H) can be accessed at offset +
0x01.
Important: Due to the
synchronization between the RTC clock and main clock domains, there is a latency of
two RTC clock cycles from updating the register until this has an effect. The
application software must check that the PERBUSY flag in the RTC.STATUS register is
cleared before writing to this register.

Bits 15:8 – PER[15:8] Period High Byte
These bits hold the MSB of the 16-bit Period register.
Bits 7:0 – PER[7:0] Period Low Byte
These bits hold the LSB of the 16-bit Period register.
