HAL_TIM_IC_CaptureCallback not working on STM32F446RE Nucleo board

[LCho.1]

Hello all,

I am trying to capture the rising and falling edge of a timer by calling HAL_TIM_IC_CaptureCallback function. I set timer1 as pwm generation and timer2 as input capture direct mode. I am following an example code online. I was able to trigger HAL_TIM_IC_CaptureCallback on my personal PC (checked by triggering LED2 and monitoring the value of variables on live expression), but it doesn't work on my work laptop. Is there any configuration or setup I need to check or follow to trigger HAL_TIM_IC_CaptureCallback?

Thank you!

Then compare the code. If it matches, read out and compare the timers' registers content.

Thank you!

The problem was I did not connect a wire between PWM port to IC capture port.
