Hello, 

The RM says that CAN1 has 16 bit free running timer, can we use this to Tx CAN message at desired interval ? if possible ,  how to set the desired time period ? or should is use any timer peripheral for my use case? 

I am using STM32F446RE nucleo board 

Thanks in advance

what page in the reference manual are you on ?

I think they are suggesting that you can use one of the 17 timers you have...

I use a periodic worker thread to check if I have TxMsgs waiting and if any TxFIFO is available.
