 I use the bare metal SDK and I would like to generate a GRTC interrupt every 250ms to wakeup my system. 
 Which resources does the zephyr is already using (GRTC_x_IRQn, CC[n]) and what is available for me to use?

&lt;p&gt;I do not believe there is a list of reserved GRTC channels, but what you are describing is a common use case for which I recommend you use the &lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/nrf-bm-latest/page/libraries/timer.html"&gt;Bare Metal Timer library,&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;which is intended for this purpose (when using the periodic timer). That is demonstrated in the &lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/nrf-bm-latest/page/samples/peripherals/timer/README.html"&gt;Timer sample,&lt;/a&gt; and you can also see an example of it being used in the &lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/nrf-bm-latest/page/samples/bluetooth/ble_cgms/README.html"&gt;CGMS sample&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Edit: In case it is useful for other uses,&amp;nbsp;GRTC channels 7 to 11 and interrupt GRTC_3_IRQn are reserved for the SoftDevice (The SoftDevice from the bare metal SDK has the same reserved hardware resources as the MPSL and SoftDevice Controller, as you can see in &lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/sds_s115/page/SDS/s1xx/sd_resource_reqs/hw_block_interrupt_vector.html"&gt;Hardware peripherals&lt;/a&gt;&amp;nbsp;from the &lt;a href="https://docs.nordicsemi.com/bundle/sds_s115/page/SDS/s1xx/s115.html"&gt;S115 SoftDevice Specification&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
