MSP432P401R: MSP432 Example Triggering ADC from a Timer

John Tsinetakes1

Part Number: MSP432P401R

Is there an example showing the proper setup to trigger an ADC conversion from a Timer?

I looked at all the examples in the below and none of the examples show an MSP32 ADC being triggered from a Timer.

Hello,

I couldn't find a TI code example of this, but I did find this E2E post where another customer provided an example for setting this up: https://e2e.ti.com/support/microcontrollers/msp430/f/msp-low-power-microcontroller-forum/467153/msp432-adc-triggered-by-timer_a-output

Take a look at let me know if you are able to get it working.

Thanks,

There is an example of triggering the ADC using a Timer in the Driver Library Examples

I also found a good example using registers in the book.

Programmable Microcontrollers: Applications on the MSP432 Launchpad, Cem Unsalan et al,

The example is in Chapter 8 and called Listing 8.10

Between the TI example and the book's example I was able to get adc to work the way I needed.
