AVR128DA48 LED Blink Using Timer Interrupt Code Example

This repository provides an Atmel Studio solution with a bare metal code example for an LED blink driven by a timer overflow interrupt (Timer/Counter Type A). This example demonstrates a simple toggling of a LED connected to the PC6 (on-board user LED) with an on/off cycle period of 1 second implemented through the use of an interrupt generated by the overflow of TCA0. The on-board user LED on the development board will toggle each 500 milliseconds.

Summary

This example represents a basic LED toggling application. The toggling is implemented using the built-in delay function and the on-board LED of the AVR128DA48 Curiosity Nano is toggled every 500 milliseconds.
