CC2530 timer configuration for 32MHz

Other Parts Discussed in Thread: MSP430F5438A, CC2530

Hi,

My application needs to do some operation after every 140us in a loop for 3 - 4 seconds (we can say it as scan duration). To check the timer accuracy I have increased the scan duration to 30 seconds. In my application i am using Timer1 in my application timer module, since some times I need timer which can accommodate in 16-bits only. I want to configure the CC2530 to work on 32MHz and timer for 1 MHz. Below is the code, where I have set the scan duration to 30 seconds, Timer1 is set to 140us, on every interrupt callback function I am reducing the scan duration by 140us and resetting the timer1 for 140us. My expectation was that the end of scan duration shall reach exactly after 30 seconds but it is taking 35 - 36 seconds to reach the end of scan duration. The same application works perfectly on MSP430F5438A microcontroller, Please find my code below:

#include <ioCC2530.h>
#include <stdint.h>
#include "hal_int.h"
#include "hal_mcu.h"
#include "hal_board_cfg.h"
#include "clock.h"

#define HAL_INT_ON(x) st( EA = 1; )
#define HAL_INT_OFF(x) st( EA = 0; )
#define HAL_INT_LOCK(x) st( (x) = EA; EA = 0; )
#define HAL_INT_UNLOCK(x) st( EA = (x); )
