STM32F756VGH6 problem running 2 timers at the same time

Hi,

I am a newbie learning to program STM32 via registers only. I have been doing step after step progress and managed to test and run the led blink program, timer delay, external interrupt etc. So hardware, core clock and other configurations are already tested. Now I ran into a problem of running 2 timers at the same time. I am using Timer1 as my blocking delay source (timer 1 is tested and works well), but when I entered interrupts, the need for second timer was imminent to implement timer interrupts etc.

The problem arises in the first line of Timer8 setup. I have done countless test, skipping the timer 8 setup and usage results in perfectly working code (except the timer 8 of course), but as soon as I try to even enable the clock for timer 8 (or do an further timer8 and its interrupt setup) whole code jams without any response. I have been reading the datasheet for a good few days now, but after so many tests I can not resolve it on my own. Any ideas or obvious mistakes? Thank you in advance.

TIM1_UP_TIM10_IRQnHandler

This is not TIM8 IRQ handler ! If you enable TIM8 and its interrupt, program stops in "non handled" interrupt handler. (Moreover this is not any handler (if you didnt rename it in startup file) - because of letter "n" inside.) Look into  file for startup_stm32f7xx.s your TIM8 handler.

Right, that was my mistake. Thank you for pointing it out.

However, there are still some problems left. Timer 1 is used for blocking delay and timer 8 is used for interrupt. Both timers have exact same clock setup, same prescalers, same source etc. Full period of 16 bit count is around 500 us in my setup, timer 1 justifies that. However, in my external interrupt ISR, I turn on led, start the timer8, and in the timer 8 ISR I turn the led off. That effectively should depict the period of timer 8 with a minor discrepancy. My logic analyzer shows that period is 32 ms which is is way off the expected 500 us. External interrupt setup and ISR is tested previously, it worked well. What could possibly cause such unexplainable GPIO on state period (it has to be related with timer 8, but since its 64 times off the target, I dont have an ideas...)?

According to your delay_ms() function, 1ms is equivalent to 2000 counts of TIM1.

With identical clock source and prescaler, the 65536 counts of TIM8 from 0 to ARR  should take 65536/2000 = 32.768ms.

Isn't it exactly what you observe?

PS. Don't use RMW to clear TIMx_SR bits. Here it's not a problem, as you have only one interrupt source, but it's a bad habit.

Oh right,

I wrote my delay function quite some time ago. I somehow perceived it as 2000 times full 16 bit count without ever catching the eye to it... Thank you once again... This made and end to my prolong headache on this timer interrupt problem...
