HAL_Delay() not working on STM32F103ZET6 (LED Blinking Example)

[Helmish]

I am using a stm32F103ZET6 to just blinking a led but the HAL_Delay() is not working.

I change the HAL_Delay() with for loop and it work.
this is the code that i am using :

while (1)

{

HAL_GPIO_WritePin(Led_301_GPIO_Port, Led_301_Pin, 1);

HAL_Delay(500);

//for (int i=0; i < 500000; i++);

HAL_GPIO_WritePin(Led_301_GPIO_Port, Led_301_Pin, 0);

//for (int i=0; i < 500000; i++);

}

}

I want to work with HAL_Delay because i need to use it in a project with this mcu

Hello,

Did you configure the GPIO pin? The GPIO clock?

Could you share your project?

[Tesla DeLorean]

Need two delays otherwise it loops immediately and turns on/off too quickly to see

[Helmish]

this is the project.

In your attached project: you're toggling correctly the pin PA8:

	  HAL_GPIO_WritePin(Led_301_GPIO_Port, Led_301_Pin, 1);
	  HAL_Delay(500);
	  //for (int i=0; i < 500000; i++);
	  HAL_GPIO_WritePin(Led_301_GPIO_Port, Led_301_Pin, 0);
	  //for (int i=0; i < 500000; i++);
	  HAL_Delay(500);

I don't see any issue in your project.

What do you mean by "HAL_Delay() is not working"? what is the symptom?

[SofLit]

Set a breakpoint in HAL_IncTick() in SysTick_Handler() interrupt handler:

void SysTick_Handler(void)
{
  /* USER CODE BEGIN SysTick_IRQn 0 */

  /* USER CODE END SysTick_IRQn 0 */
  HAL_IncTick();
  /* USER CODE BEGIN SysTick_IRQn 1 */

  /* USER CODE END SysTick_IRQn 1 */
}

Are you reaching it?

[Helmish]

The symptom is that when I set the LED in the first line, it remains "on". I don't see the LED blinking; it just stays "on". If I reset the LED in the first line, it stays "off". This suggests that the code is likely blocking on line 2 at HAL_Delay(500).

I can't debug because I haven't any debug solution

[Helmish]

the stm32F103ZET6 MCU is integrated on a board so i haven't any debug solution.

Sorry, which board are you using? how did you upload the binary to board if you don't have a debug solution?
