 I am maintaining a NRF project, done all Dev Academy courses 2 years ago, still I am havibng trouble. 
 My current task: I need to set a (hardware) timer interrupt with IRQ in NRF52833 lets says every 500 microsec. 
 I am having trouble to find the</description><dc:language>en-US</dc:language><generator>Telligent Community 13</generator><lastBuildDate>Mon, 22 Sep 2025 05:56:43 GMT</lastBuildDate><atom:link rel="self" type="application/rss+xml" href="https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/f/nordic-q-a/124520/how-to-setup-a-hw-timer-and-irq" /><item><title>RE: How to setup a HW timer and IRQ</title><link>https://devzone.nordicsemi.com/thread/549380?ContentTypeID=1</link><pubDate>Mon, 22 Sep 2025 05:56:43 GMT</pubDate><guid isPermaLink="false">137ad170-7792-4731-bb38-c0d22fbe4515:2fb9d61d-b092-4eb1-96b0-9f4d71409351</guid><dc:creator>mirhamza708</dc:creator><description>&lt;p&gt;You can look at the nrfx samples here&amp;nbsp;&lt;a id="" href="https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/hal_nordic/tree/57d9fc59c9ea86465b5cd26f0fe2b9dcc520768b/nrfx/samples/src/nrfx_timer"&gt;https://github.com/zephyrproject-rtos/hal_nordic/tree/57d9fc59c9ea86465b5cd26f0fe2b9dcc520768b/nrfx/samples/src/nrfx_timer&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;And for checking which hardware timer is being already used by zephyr you need to check the dtsi files of your specific board from the boards folder in zephyrproject/ncs.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The default priority for HW timer is 0 in the sample but you can choose any priority level you want it totally depends on you the application designer.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
