kl43z timer issue

[kennethgraakjær]

Hi

I'm trying to do a bare bones timer setup on the frdm kl43z board.

In my source I have:

#include "fsl_device_registers.h"

int main() {

     TPM2_SC |= TPM_SC_PS(0x7);    // prescaler at 128.

     /* other stuff */

}

However when I encounter the above line in debug mode it triggers the default interrupt handler. This is the same for all timers TPM0 - 2.

Any ideas as to what I'm missing?

Hello Kenneth Graakjaer:

Have you enabled the clock gate for TPM2?

This must be done before configuring any TPM2 register. The line of code would be this:

SIM_SCGC6 |= SIM_SCGC6_TPM2_MASK;

This applies to any peripheral; before accesing the registers you have to enable the clock gates.

Worked like a charm! Thank you.

I had the clock source in SIM_SOPT2 confused with the clock gate.
