CCS/MSP430G2553: Configuring GPIO pin functions (PxSEL & PxSEL2)

Part Number: MSP430G2553

Tool/software: Code Composer Studio

Hello,

I am only begining with the MSP430g2553, and microcontrollers in general, so this is probably a very dumb question, but i got really stuck...so i thank you in advance for reding my post.

I wanted to configure pin number 3, to be Out0, (output compare) of Timer0_A. As i see in the datasheet, this pin is multiplexed, and can do  6 "things":

P1.1/TA0.0/UCA0RXD/UCA0SOMI/A1/CA1.

However, on the datasheet page 329, i understand in order to select from these 6 options i only have two bits (P1SEL and P1SEL2) (P1 in this case).

I am missing something because two bits only allow for 4 options, and i have 6.

Thank you once again,

Joan Marc Riera
