Hi, I have little problems with timers in LPC1768. I need to start timer2 because I use timer0 and timer1. When I want to configure and start timer2 all program doesn't start and I see nothing reaction - white display and no reaction. I have question: can I use more timers than 2? How many timers can I use ? And the second problem - I'd like to turn off one of the timers. How can I do it ? I understand that I must change pins on TCR register, but when I set bit 0 or 1 from documentation I turned off timer but I can't turn on again...I can turn off only once. I don't understand it.
LPC_TIM1->TCR |= 1 << 0; - start timer LPC_TIM1->TCR |= 0 << 0; - turn off timer ? It doesn't work...
I also tried LPC_TIM1->TCR |= 1 << 1 but then timer didn't start again when I set LPC_TIM1->TCR |= 1 << 0 again. I think that you understand what I mean. Thanks for help.
