There should not be any delay, if you set CC[2] to 10000, timer will count 9998→9999→0→1...

Sorry for my mistake.

If I use NRF_TIMER3->EVENTS_COMPARE[2] to trigger TASKS_CLEAR, will the timer resets to 0 instantly without any delay? Or is there any method to eliminate that delay?

Hi,

EEP should point to an event, such as NRF_TIMER3->EVENTS_COMPARE[2].
Use of shortcut is preferable but the behavior should be the same - the timer resets just hitting CC[2].
