LPC1114 weird problem in Timer/UART

Hello,

I got a weird problem when using timers and uart.

My uart works fine, but if i initialize a timer32 the uart doesn't work!

Also, I'm using the FreeRTOS.

Anyone here already got this problem? :confused:

Thank you anyway!

Hi,

I seem to have found what was creating the problem for me, hopefully it helps someone else: I was not clearing the interrupt when entering the timer IRQ. In the end, something like:

void TIMER32_0_IRQHandler (void)
{
Chip_TIMER_ClearMatch(LPC_TIMER32_0,MATCH_NUM);
// ETC
}

In some driver modules it seems that it is not necessary to clear the interrupt but in the case of the timer it needs to be forced.

Regards

Hi all,

I've just ran into this exact same problem; either the UART interrupts, or the timer (depending on whether the timer is disabled or enabled respectively), but not both.

Has anyone managed to figure out why this is happening or how to solve it?

Thanks!

If you are using the LPCOpen v1.03 release with the 32-bit timer 1 peripheral, you might want to look at this tracker issue related to a software bug...

I'm using the code provided by NXP in LPCXpresso (Examples).

Checked my code and the UART clock seens ok to me.

Still trying fix it out, thanks for your support.

Check the code you use to turn on the clock for your timer. It may by mistake turn off the UART clock.
