Dear Community,
I am porting an old application made on AVR to STM32, and I am facing a strange timing issue.
In a nutshell, the application is reading sector (512 Bytes) from a SDCARD and output the content of the buffer to GPIO with 4us cycle (meaning 3us low, 1 us data signal).
The SDCard read is working fine, and I have written a small assembly code to output GPIO signal with precise MCU cycle counting.
Using DWT on the debugger, it give a very stable and precise counting (288 cycles for a total of 4us).
When using a Logic analyser with 24 MHz freq, I can see shift of signal by 1 or 2 cpu cycles and so delay.
I have tried to use ODR directly and BSRR but with no luck.

As you can see I do not have 3us but 3.042 and this is not always the case

I do not know where to look at to be honnest
This is the view NVIC in CubeMX,
Does it change something to uncheck these ?

Frame should all be 1us High and 3us low, and I still have glitches...
