Using external clock for adc triggered

I'd suppose you could connect TIMx_CHx pins in input capture mode, and use those, or check the configuration options for EXTI line mappings.

Here's at tip, when testing new ideas keep the code very simple, when you've proved the method integrate it back into your more complicated structure.

GPIO_PinAFConfig(GPIOB, GPIO_PinSource12, GPIO_AF_TIM4); // Needs to be GPIOD for PD12

Thanks Clive

Please Help clive. I need it badly

I don't know what misake I am doing please help me anybody

I don't have the time to wade through your code. I can however demonstrate clocking an ADC from an external source.
