there is only used for blinking purpose only

but I require some other functinality along with that

i want that i configure such a timer which start for perticulr duration and stops automatically , i don't have to do nothing to stop that

after any time during program when i want to start timer i could be able to start again that timer. and from again that it must be stop automatically

One Pulse Mode?​

It really depends what you want to do actually.

Is it one toggle over the countdown duration?

==> Granularity of the programmable event vs the timer running its time

Maybe the RTC can be used if the duration is very long, setting an alarm.

Look in details what you want to do, specify more the details and envision the futur possible needed evolutions to select the right implementation

Thanks for reply,

I just want to make timer which should have following configurations

1.timer starts by our command and it stops after some duration automatically itself ,we should not have to send any command to stop it. it should be done by itself automatically

2.Again after some time when we want to start that timer again we have to send command to start and again it stops after same duration automatically.

in short i want to configure a simple timer which start by our command and stops itself automatically but duration we could configure manually

(duration will be same all time, it will configure at once at start of program)

Best Regards
