*Single TIMER tIFS Trx SW switching*

Type: ``bool``

Help
====

.. code-block:: none

    Implement the tIFS Trx SW switch with the same TIMER
    instance, as the one used for BLE event timing. Requires
    SW switching be enabled. Using a single TIMER:
    (+) frees up one TIMER instance
    (+) removes jitter for HCTO implementation
    (-) introduces drifting to the absolute time inside BLE
    events, that increases linearly with the number of
    packets exchanged in the event
    (-) makes it impossible to use most of the pre-programmed
    PPI channels for the controller, resulting in 4 channels
    less left for other uses
