How to Set Trigger ADC from GPT?

[nidhisingh]

Hi,

I’m using RF7A6M2AF MCU. I’m working at the register level and don’t use Renesas libraries. I’m trying to set up the MCU so I could spark ADC sampling from GPT.

I do have a GPT formerly working in the circle. I did set ADTRAUEN to 1 in the GTINTAD register and GTADTRA to 2, so the ADC trigger event starts early on during the GPT up-count. To confirm that the ELC_EVENT_GPT1_AD_TRIG_A event actually happens I’ve configured an interrupt for it and it does get triggered.

The thing I must be missing is the configuration at the ADC level for the trigger. A single checkup from the software trigger is working rightly and I can see ELC_EVENT_ADC1_SCAN_END related interrupt being triggered but if I configure ADCSR register TRGE and EXTRG fields to enable synchronous trigger I can not get ADC to work. I was looking into the ADSTRGR register to set a trigger for the ADC, but I don’t see an option for the GPT.

What am I missing?

Kind regards.
