6.2.4 Example Board for the Timer Examples
The Timer example can be run on Curiosity Nano boards, such as the dsPIC33CK64MC105. In the image below, the circled LED on the Curiosity Nano is toggled according to the set timer period. An LED on the Curiosity Nano Explorer will flash alongside as it is wired up to the dsPIC LED.
All three Timer examples were tested using the hardware setup presented below.
