ADC is triggered by timer

 Helllooooooooo,

I want to use the configured timer as a trigger for the A/D converter. I have to set up an interrupt service routine (that will be called when new data is ready to be read) to read the data and fill an array variable with the values. When the array is full, deactivate the conversions. The timer works properly but the ADC does not convert anything. I am very new in this chip. Could you please guide me?

 /* ///Timer setup./// */

static void timer2_setup ( void ) 

{

  /* Enable the TIMER2 interrupt. */

  nvic_enable_irq(NVIC_TIM2_IRQ);

  /* Set STM32 to 48 MHz. */

   /* End timer value. */

I don't know what part you're using, or the library, but it all looks rather tortured.

You'd probably want to tell the ADC you're going to be triggering, and set the TIM trigger to be something (Update?).

You don't want to be interrupting on the TIM IRQ, and reconfiguring/starting the ADC, this can be done by correctly configuring the TIM/ADC and then interrupting on the ADC's EOC, or using DMA.

Using C++ syntax probably won't help you, and allocating buffers as local/auto variable also won't help, especially if you try using DMA.
