Thanks. Yes there are other timers, but this 32-bit timer would make it easier to insure we didn't miss any ticks when counting from a hi-res hardware encoder. There is a reference to TIM5 in us_ticker_data.h, but I don't know enough to know if or ...
Where did you find proof that TIM5 was being used elsewhere? We are trying to use if to count pulses from a hardware encoder. When the pulses cause it to count down, we seem to loose our Ethernet/TCP communications and LinkStatus. Counting up does...
