GetTick() in LL Driver

Hello,

Normally we use HAL_GetTick() in HAL driver.

I want to use GetTick() in STM32 LL driver. 

How to get and use GetTick() in STM32 LL driver?

You can use both HAL and LL together in a project.

Or you could just look at how HAL_GetTick() works (the source is provided), and implement that yourself ...

A complex system that works is invariably found to have evolved from a simple system that worked.A complex system designed from scratch never works and cannot be patched up to make it work.
