know how to config registers bcsctl1,2 and dcoctl to set clocks know how to config low power modes know how to config interrupts, desc all steps of handling an interrupt know interrupt nesting, interrupt selective masking to generate a some kind of clock dcoctl 01100000 0x60 bcsctl1 00100100 0x24 bcsctl2 10000000 0x80 mclk 840khz:must come from dco smclk 420khz:can be pulled from dco w/ divider aclk 32khz: DCO: network of resistors and caps that can be played with so that you can get a variable frequency signal out of it lots of talk about power consumption
