Compiler/Cc2530: Timer 1 prescaler not working

m z

Part Number: CC2530
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: Z-STACK

Tool/software: TI C/C++ Compiler

I am not using z-stack, for a proprietary application I tried to configure timer 1 prescaler, T1CTL.DIV[3:2] |= 0x08. But the timer 1 prescaler has no affect on the timer counter.

What can be the problem?

Can you share your code?

If you want to set the prescaler to "Tick Frequency / 32" (from datasheet) you should do the following:

T1CTL |= 0x08;

I did the same on my code, if clock is 32MHz, and I set prescaler to 32? Do I get each tick at 1usec? 32Mhz/32 1Mhz per second? Or I get 32Mhz/12/32?

You will obtain 1Mhz with this configuration.
