Basically this mode lets you take a snapshot of the timer value on a external event (pin change).</SPAN><BR /><SPAN> </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>You will need to have a digital input signal, signalling if there is, or if there is no ultrasound received.

More information on this can be found in the user manual, chapter 21. Then you can reset the timer value to 0, start the timer and enable the ultrasound transceiver. After this you will only have to wait for the capture interrupt and read the capture value.</SPAN><BR /><SPAN> </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>Regards,</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 16 Jun 2016 01:04:51 GMT lpcware 2016-06-16T01:04:51Z timer in LPC1769 https://community.nxp.com/t5/LPCXpresso-IDE/timer-in-LPC1769/m-p/569714#M19834 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><STRONG>Content originally posted in LPCWare by koceila882 on Tue Apr 17 11:03:47 MST 2012</STRONG><BR /><SPAN>hello friends</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>I want to use a timer to count a time between an ultrasound transceiver and ultrasound receiver?</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>How can I use timer in this application ?</SPAN><BR /><SPAN>thank you</SPAN></BODY></HTML> Thu, 16 Jun 2016 01:04:51 GMT https://community.nxp.com/t5/LPCXpresso-IDE/timer-in-LPC1769/m-p/569714#M19834 lpcware 2016-06-16T01:04:51Z Re: timer in LPC1769 https://community.nxp.com/t5/LPCXpresso-IDE/timer-in-LPC1769/m-p/569715#M19835 <HTML><HEAD></HEAD><BODY><STRONG>Content originally posted in LPCWare by NXP_Europe on Tue Apr 17 23:45:35 MST 2012</STRONG><BR /><SPAN>Hi,</SPAN><BR /><SPAN> </SPAN><BR /><SPAN>You are probably interested in the capture mode.
