Hello Mahesh

If you are using MCUXpresso and the SWD tool, basically there is no HALT button, there is  PAUSE and STOP if the debug it is in STOP the register are in last state that the Software provide, this means the MCU it is not running neither the peripherals all clocks are out.

Regards,

Sol

Hi, I have the same question as OP.  But your response isn't clear.

I'm trying to debug my code which uses the CTIMER to interrupt on compare match.  But it seems like the timer is still counting in the background if I pause or hit a break-point.

On Kinetis, the timer pauses when the program is paused.  Can we do that on LPC804's CTimer also?
