1.6 CORETIMER Periodic Interrupt

This example application shows how to use the CoreTimer to generate periodic interrupts.

Description

This example application configures the CoreTimer Peripheral Library to generate periodic interrupts. The application registers a periodic timeout callback. It toggles an LED every time the callback is triggered.
