Question

LSE and HSE on MCO1

I use STM32F4

I set MCO1 to PLL Clock and set output prescaler to 5 and I have 6MHz on my MCO1. There is no problem in it, But when I enable LSE with HSE together, I have no signal on MCO1 pin. Code:

RCC_OscInitStruct.OscillatorType = RCC_OSCILLATORTYPE_HSE|RCC_OSCILLATORTYPE_LSE;
RCC_OscInitStruct.HSEState = RCC_HSE_ON;
RCC_OscInitStruct.LSEState = RCC_LSE_ON;
RCC_OscInitStruct.PLL.PLLState = RCC_PLL_ON;
RCC_OscInitStruct.PLL.PLLSource = RCC_PLLSOURCE_HSE;
RCC_OscInitStruct.PLL.PLLM = 25;
RCC_OscInitStruct.PLL.PLLN = 336;
RCC_OscInitStruct.PLL.PLLP = RCC_PLLP_DIV2;
RCC_OscInitStruct.PLL.PLLQ = 7;
HAL_RCC_OscConfig(&RCC_OscInitStruct);
HAL_RCC_MCOConfig(RCC_MCO1,RCC_MCO1SOURCE_PLLCLK,RCC_MCODIV_5);

What is the problem? Thanks...

    Does some other unshown code configure the other GPIOs and clocks to allow this to work?

    Tips, Buy me a coffee, or three.. PayPal VenmoUp vote any posts that you find helpful, it shows what's working..

    Yes. GPIO configured with this code :

    __GPIOA_CLK_ENABLE();
    GPIO_InitStruct.Pin = GPIO_PIN_8;
    GPIO_InitStruct.Mode = GPIO_MODE_AF_PP;
    GPIO_InitStruct.Pull = GPIO_PULLDOWN;
    GPIO_InitStruct.Speed = GPIO_SPEED_HIGH;
    GPIO_InitStruct.Alternate = GPIO_AF0_MCO;
    HAL_GPIO_Init(GPIOA, &GPIO_InitStruct);

    When I change this line:

    RCC_OscInitStruct.OscillatorType = RCC_OSCILLATORTYPE_HSE|RCC_OSCILLATORTYPE_LSE;

    to

    RCC_OscInitStruct.OscillatorType = RCC_OSCILLATORTYPE_HSE;

    MCO1 clock is good and with LSE, I have no clock on MCO1 pin.

    Try to blink a LED in the main loop, first with the setting where you do have the output clock, then with the other setting.

    Does it blink in both cases?

    Yes.

    I have LED blinking every 500mS in both cases(cmsis_os delay) 

    and I have 1KHz signal of TIM3 too.

    -----------------

    In my new tests I have MCO1 clock in both cases!

    (No board changes and no software changes!)

    I am continuing my work and if this state happened again I will write state to this thread.

    Thanks.
