Hi, Anybody please help me how to use the timers in LPC1114? Anyone please let me know how to generate delays using timers?
An important lesson:
Don't be intimidated by the number of registers (or the crassness of responses from people who should know better). Just go a step at a time.
Even those who have done similar tasks before will occasionally have to view a new architecture and it is not uncommon to have an initial bewilderment when they see the datasheets for the first time.
Nothing crass about it.
There are much sample code available. But the sample code is only meaningful for someone who have read up on the function of the timers.
If we supply sample code in this thread, it would be no difference from the sample code that is already available - the chip manual must still be referenced to understand it.
For your information, I spent most of yesterday doing precisely what I described in my earlier post in order to learn how to use a peripheral on the microcontroller that I'm currently working with.
It's not crass - it's necessary.
FYI - In this instance, I was referring to the one response whose text I included in the summary.
I should have said 'person' and not 'people' in my original message.
Appologies for including the other valid responses, which were clearly non-crass.
(But my comments on that response stand.)
