Hi folks... could anyboady tell me if it is possible to use an input capture pin to trigger a timer without code? I would like to use the capture pin to generate a pulse on a mat output pin (using PWM maybe) onlye configuring timer and without interrupt routine.
Thanks

A timer capture pin can increment the timer counter value, or latch the current timer counter value to the capture register. It cannot start the timer. You would indeed need an piece of interrupt code, handle the capture interrupt and start the timer to generate a single PWM pulse.
