app_timer trigger immediatly on SDK13

[ben38]

Hi,

I have an issue with app_timer (nRF52, SDK13.0). I use a single shot timer.
I try to debug, and I'm in the case of app_timer.c line 650:

ticks latest: 534879, ticks at start: 12012818
ticks first interval: 163840

So this case put the ticks_to_expire to 0... I don't understand why ?

It think that it should be: MAX_RTC_COUNTER_VAL - delta_current_start + p_timer->ticks_first_interval;

The problem you are seeing seems to be a bug in the app_timer module. I would recommend you to have a look at the following threads discussing the problem and proposing solutions: 1 and 2.

You're right. It seems to fix the issue. I had found the thread 1, but there are still issues on the patch (last comment from Feb 23: I've just discovered what looks like a bug in my solution ). So what is the status of this patch ? Should I use it ? app_timer change a lot in SDK 13. Why wasn't it already integrated ?
