libuarte example don't work when use TIMER instance

Hi,Dear all:

   I got trouble when I change “libuarte example”(nrf52840 DK, SDK17.0.2),the default example use RTC instance :

       NRF_LIBUARTE_ASYNC_DEFINE(libuarte, 0, 0, 0, NRF_LIBUARTE_PERIPHERAL_NOT_USED, 255, 3);

  and it works  correctly as following:

Then, I want to use TIMER instance, I did the following step:

Frist, NRF_LIBUARTE_ASYNC_DEFINE(libuarte, 0, 0, NRF_LIBUARTE_PERIPHERAL_NOT_USED, NRF_LIBUARTE_PERIPHERAL_NOT_USED, 255, 3);

 Second, I add app_timer_init() in main()

Then, I enable the sdk_config.h:

#ifndef APP_TIMER_ENABLED
#define APP_TIMER_ENABLED 1
#endif

#ifndef NRFX_TIMER_ENABLED
#define NRFX_TIMER_ENABLED 1
#endif
// <q> NRFX_TIMER0_ENABLED - Enable TIMER0 instance

#ifndef NRFX_TIMER0_ENABLED
#define NRFX_TIMER0_ENABLED 1
#endif

The above is all I did , but when I run the changed example, I can not receive anything, just as following picture:

Finally, My  main.c is below,  but the sdk_config.h can not be uploaded

So, did I ignore something?  How should I do to use TIMER instance successfully?

Thanks for your reply.

Parents
  • uncomment  below lines

    // ret_code_t ret = app_timer_init();
    // APP_ERROR_CHECK(ret);

  • Hi,Susheel:

     Thanks your reply , the default instance is RTC0, but now I want use TIMER0,according to the Macro define:

    so I changed the define as below:

    NRF_LIBUARTE_ASYNC_DEFINE(libuarte, 0, 0, NRF_LIBUARTE_PERIPHERAL_NOT_USED, NRF_LIBUARTE_PERIPHERAL_NOT_USED, 255, 3);

    I do according to your suggestion, But it doesn't work still, below is my mian.c now.

  • It's kind for seeing your reply,

    I am so sorry. I thought clockinit part is needed only when RTC instance used, if I want TIMER instance this part should not be needed, so I commented it out

    I uncomment this part ,then I works fine.

    Thanks for your help. Very much
