Using basic timer to trigger ADC conversion

[GBert.2]

Hi,

Using an STM32G4, I want to start an ADC conversion periodically using an event from a timer.

To do so I choose the TIMER6 (basic timer) and ADC2 peripherals.

Sadly, it didn't work.

The reference manual, seems to imply that you can't use a basic timer to start an ADC conversion.

 

That said, CubeMX clearly allows us to configure TIMER 6 as a trigger source.

Is this a CubeMX bug or I'm missing something?

Thanks

Why do you say that? TIM6/7_TRGO are listed as triggers for the ADC regular conversions.

 

Note that the part you highlighted pertains to the DAC, not the ADC, but I don't see how it's relevant.

The timer section explicitly says that it can be used as an ADC trigger.

This isn't enough information to diagnose the issue. Show the code you've used along with how you've determined that it isn't working.
