Hi Eric, Thanks for your answer.
On telosb(MSP430,cc2420) platform, SFD pin of CC2420 is configured to TimerB1 capture pin, which is hardware connection! SFD pin can be used to capture the moment when a packet arriving. I need a 1MHz source for SFD. This is the reason I change the clock source of TimerB1. Is that easy to exchange the source of TimerA and TimerB?
