Hello everyone. I am creating a hexapod with 18 independent servos, using 18 channels on General - Purpose timers. I have problem with few timers, simply servo is not responding to new compare value. I am using timers:

TIM2 - 4 channels working TIM3 - 4 channels working TIM4 - 4 channels working TIM5 - chanel 2 and 3 not working TIM12 - not working Do I have some conflicts with alternative configuration ? My init for timers/pwm: 


void initTimer()

{

RCC_TIMCLKPresConfig(RCC_TIMPrescActivated);


/* TIM2 clock enable */

RCC_APB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB1Periph_TIM2, ENABLE);


/* TIM3 clock enable */

RCC_APB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB1Periph_TIM3, ENABLE);


/* TIM4 clock enable */

RCC_APB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB1Periph_TIM4, ENABLE);


/* TIM5 clock enable */

RCC_APB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB1Periph_TIM5, ENABLE);


/* TIM12 clock enable */

RCC_APB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB1Periph_TIM12, ENABLE);


TIM_TimeBaseInitTypeDef TIM_TimeBaseStructure;


/* Compute the prescaler value */

uint16_t u16PrescalerValue = (uint16_t) ((SystemCoreClock) / 1000000)- 1;

TIM_TimeBaseStructure.TIM_Prescaler = u16PrescalerValue; // 1MHz

TIM_TimeBaseStructure.TIM_Period = 20000 - 1; // 1 MHz / 20000 = 50 Hz (20ms)

TIM_TimeBaseStructure.TIM_ClockDivision = 0;

TIM_TimeBaseStructure.TIM_CounterMode = TIM_CounterMode_Up;


TIM_TimeBaseInit(TIM2, &TIM_TimeBaseStructure);

It might be this, but how can I get rid of this conflict? This is not enough?:4

Think about this for a second, how does reconfiguring the STM32 change the behaviour of pins driven by external devices?

Your options sometimes come down to removing devices or cutting traces.

So I can't use pins which can used as  TIM5 even if in datasheet there is info that PA1 PA2 are alternatively TIM5?

Could you please help me with TIM5? I really need this timer working

Look I don't have magic powers, does it work if you remove the other part?

Can you use some other pins/timers to get what you need?

YOU HAVE AN EXTERNAL DEVICE DRIVING VOLTAGE INTO THE PINS, REMOVE U3 AND TRY YOUR EXPERIMENT AGAIN
