2.2.1 TSR and CER

Time Sync Router (TSR) routes sync signals from each of the interfaces or subsystem components to one of multiple destinations. It serves as the back-plane for the time sync interconnect. There is a set of control registers that software can use to setup sync signals routing statically. CER is the similar to the TSR, but only connects timer compare events and capture events.
