Any PFI pin can externally input the GPCTR1_SOURCE signal, which is
available as an output on the PFI3/GPCTR1_SOURCE pin.

As an output, the GPCTR1_SOURCE monitors the actual clock connected
to general-purpose counter 1, even if the source clock is being externally
generated by another PFI. This output is set to high-impedance at startup.

The maximum allowed frequency is 20 MHz, with a minimum pulse width
of 10 ns high or low. There is no minimum frequency limitation.

As an input, the GPCTR1_GATE signal is configured in edge-detection
mode. You can select any PFI pin as the source for GPCTR1_GATE and
configure the polarity selection for either rising or falling edge. You can use
the gate signal in a variety of different applications to perform such actions
as starting and stopping the counter, generating interrupts, saving the
counter contents, and so on.
