Generation of odd freq with Timer Peripheral

Hi ,

I want to generate signal equal to 2.048MHz for audio codec IC which need to be very precise .

Right now I have configured TIM8 CHN3 with per-scaler = 0 and period = 40 and timer peripheral clock is around 84 MHz .

With this nearest value that I have got around 2048780 Hz.

Prescaler = 0 and Period = 40 => 84 MHz / (40+1) = 2048780 Hz

Prescaler = 0 and Period = 41 => 84 MHz / (41+1) = 2000000 Hz

Prescaler = 0 and Period = 39 => 84 MHz / (39+1) = 2100000 Hz

Is there any other-method in this scenario ?  Please let me know

Correct. The TIM uses two integer dividers.

You'd get specific numbers by using crystals, and pll settings, to achieve the desired starting point. ie you'd use an 8.192 MHz crystal, not a 8.0 MHz one. You'd clock the APB/TIM at 81.92 MHz, not 84 MHz, etc.

Look also at the I2S PLL also, and what you can do with the three factors there.

Thanks clive1 . Using PLLI2S_N , PLLI2S_R  and and with Mco2 prescaler , I am able to generate .
