 Imagine someone trying to extend the RTC timer from 24bit to 32bit, the developer has to keep an extra byte and increment the overflow on overflow event.

&lt;p&gt;Thanks for your feedback, I have forwarded it to our development team and they will take this into account on any future refactoring of the driver. Regarding OVERFLOW and COMPARE events, from software perspective they occur at the same time (by the time irq handler is executed both will be set), but we haven&amp;#39;t check the exact timing of the hardware events.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Best regards,&lt;/p&gt;
