The Elapsed Time Counter (ETC) registers are not buffered for reading. If a 250ms tick occurs while data is being read out, the result can be a combination of old and new values. This can occur at the byte level (giving a time in the future) or the individual bit level (giving a time in the past). We catch both these cases by reading until we get two equal or consecutive values. After five unsuccessful attempts we give up.
