Triggering ADC Sampling by Timer Events

I am trying to setup ADC sampling that is triggered by a Timer. Essentially I want to setup a 1 kHz timer that will trigger an ADC sample every 1 ms, and use DMA to transfer the sample data.

I have all the components working separately but I cannot get the ADC to sample on a timer event. In the ADC documentation it lists that events from TIM1 �

Timer 1 CC1 event

� can be used as triggers to initiate a sampling. I have setup the �

EXTEN

� and �

EXTSEL

� fields to use this event, but it does not get triggered by the timer.

I have verified that the timer is generating interrupts at 1Khz by setting up an interrupt handler that will manually initiate an ADC sampling via the �

SWSTART

� bit in the ADC->CR2 register. Using this method I can accomplish the task I want, but it adds delays which are causing me to miss samples.

The documentation is not very clear as to how the �

Timer 1 CC1 event

� event gets generated by TIM1. I�m using the �RM0090 Reference manual� for ST STM32F407IE. I�ve spent some time googling and I�ve found people having issues with this as well, with no solutions.

Are there any other documents that detail how this can be setup/used?

I’ve spent some time googling and I’ve found people having issues with this as well, with no solutions.

I know I've posted dozens of examples, perhaps not using TIM1, but with TIM-ADC-DMA

Are the posts on this forum? Do you remember for what chip this was for specifically?

If possible could you provide me with a link to to your posts?

Thanks

Yes on this forum, lots of examples, lots of chips, perhaps best searched with Google, because the search here ***** so bad, as does cataloguing others posts.

Thank you for the response and the sample code. I was not properly configuring the BDTR TIM register.

Does someone has the Embedded C code of the above program. Because I am trying to start continuous ADC conversion on Timer event but I am still unable to achieve the desired result.
