// MSP-FET430P140 Demo - Timer_A, Toggle P1.1/TA0, Up Mode, DCO SMCLK
//
// Description: Toggle P1.1 using hardware TA0 output. Timer_A is configured
// for up mode with CCR0 defining period, TA0 also output on P1.1. In this
// example, CCR0 is loaded with 500-1 and TA0 will toggle P1.1 at TACLK/500.
// Thus the output frequency on P1.1 will be the TACLK/1000. No CPU or
// software resources required.
// As coded with TACLK = SMCLK, P1.1 output frequency is ~800000/1000.
// SMCLK = MCLK = TACLK = default DCO ~800kHz
