Hello, 

I would like to make 1 us period with timer 2 of STM8L051F3.

currently I checked that 1 ms is correct, if trying to use under 1 ms (like 100 us or 10 us), the period is not correct....

I measured the period with GPIO(LED).....

please help to let me know whether can make 1 us period with timer 2 or not..

and if has another solution, please help to provide the example with detailed information...

thankful for your support in advance,

thanks.

For practicalities sake you aren't going to be able to interrupt at 1 MHz (1us)

You can set a prescaler on the TIM to get the 16-bit portion to clock at 1 MHz, and then you can observe ticks of the counter.

and I am using 3 timer (2/3/4), so sometimes I need to set the priority of each timer,

I don't know the method, please help to let me know it with example.

and I wonder whether STM8L051F3 can support float calculation or not, please help to let me know the fact...

when trying to do 'printf('test %f \r\n', 0.12345);' in code, I can see only '%f' output... why ?

it is float support issue or printf library compile issue ?

thankful for your support in advance,

thanks.

'

why ?'

you may find it helpful to read your compiler manual.

yes, if you can run that chip at 100s of Mhz.

Hello, Dhenry,

I give up it, instead I make another solution, currently I can control the gpio pin what I want,

thanks.
