Timer Example

The Timer Example demonstrate the use of the Timer peripherals. The timers are used to toggle pin 8 (LED 0) every 100ms. This example replaces the less accurate busy delay in blinky example with a more accurate hardware timer based delay.

The application starts with configuring the GPIO. The LED is toggled and the application waits for Timer0 to reach the capture/compare (CC[0]) value. This is done for all three timers in order.

Setup

LED assignments:

  • LED 0 is toggled every 100ms.

Testing

The Timer Example Application can be tested as follows:

  1. Compile and program the application.
  2. Observe that LED 0 toggles every 100ms.
