How we can configure Timer2 epit to generate 3 to 5 Mhz clock

[Ashish]

Dear Team,
I am working on colibri iMX6ULL 512 which has linux in it, now i want to configure the TIMER2_EPIT, to generate in between 3 to 5 MHz clock and give it to my ADC
So could anybody from the team support me to do this

Hi @Ashish,

Thanks for posting to Toradex Community.

Regarding your query, as per my understanding ept timer is not available to user space. This may have changed but we did’t find any suitable example/doc to share.

Now for solution one can use one of available PWM to generate clock. Please check below article

Additionally some reference post for timer

Linux EPIT timer interrupt handler

Hello, For a project I’m using the Aplis iMX6Q embedded platform. I have my basic stuff already running like GPIO and SPI. But now I want to add and Timer interrupt. For this interrupt I’m going to use the EPIT1 timer (according to my research it should be free to use, otherwise EPIT2 would be fine). After a specific time, that I write to the registers, it should generate a interrupt. I have already read into this EPIT timer and I’m sure I can manage to get it working. However the interrupt ha…
