A jet engine afterburner is an extended exhaust section containing extra fuel injectors.

In one-shot mode the comparator fires an interrupt once when the main counter reaches the value stored in the comparator's register, while in the periodic mode the interrupts are generated at specified intervals. Comparators can be driven by the operating system, e.g. to provide one timer per CPU for scheduling, or by applications.
