Bit 2:0 – CS32:30 - Clock Select
The three clock select bits select the clock source to be used by the Timer/Counter3
according to the following table. If external pin modes are used for the Timer/Counter3,
transitions on the T3 pin will clock the counter even if the pin is configured as an output.
This feature allows software control of the counting.

Bit 7 – FOC3A - Force Output Compare for Channel A
The FOC3A bit is only active when the WGM33:0 bits specify a non-PWM mode. When
writing a logical one to the FOC3A bit, an immediate compare match is forced on the
waveform generation unit. The OC3A output is changed according to its COM3A1:0 bits
setting. Note that the FOC3A bits are implemented as strobes. Therefore it is the value
present in the COM3A1:0 bits that determine the effect of the forced compare. A
FOC3A strobe will not generate any interrupt nor will it clear the timer in Clear Timer on
Compare Match (CTC) mode using OCR3A as TOP. The FOC3A bits are always read
as zero.
