It is possible, but it's a bad idea because non-standard values can |
| 7 |
result in driver breakage. Some code assumes specific timer |
| 8 |
granularities (100Hz = 10ms, 250Hz = 4ms, etc). This usually happens |
| 9 |
with values above 1000Hz, so it might be possible to experiment with |
| 10 |
non-standard sub-1000Hz values. |

But why do you want a custom value anyway? |
