I found out that it is the following.
Timer and RTC prescaler behavior by TASKS_CLEAR is different,
When TASKS_CLEAR is executed at TIMER, the TIMER counter is cleared,
The prescaler counter is not cleared</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Thu, 05 Jan 2017 07:46:06 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/18796/regarding-rtc-of-nrf51822" /><item><title>RE: Regarding RTC of nRF51822</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/72596?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Thu, 05 Jan 2017 07:46:06 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:8914c95d-8bde-4ae5-afbf-e24bfa3a91b4</guid><dc:creator>Shinya Sakaida</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;Dear RK&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Timer and RTC prescaler behavior by TASKS_CLEAR is different in real machine
I am checking it, but how?
I confirmed it by synchronizing the RTC between two nRF51822.
Corresponding to the time until execution of TASKS_CLEAR after interrupt
The two are out of synchronization.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best Regards

In neither the TIMER nor the RTC does the TASK_CLEAR affect the PRESCALER in any way, only the counter is cleared, the PRESCALER is left at same exact value you set it to. The only way to change the PRESCALER is to stop the RTC, write the register, and start it up again.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are seeing different behaviour, you have a bug.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
