Timer Interrupt Unhandled Exception
Posted: Wed Jan 28, 2015 11:58 pm
Hi guys,
I'm having a really strange issue with a Timer interrupt handler on a STM32F303 Discovery board. I've taken the stock demo app and added in some basic code to turn on TIM4, count up and when it reaches an overflow generates an interrupt.
Problem is, as soon as it hits the interrupt it gets an unhandled exception and sits in the infinite loop in vectors.c
Anybody see any obvious reason why this could be happening? Timer counts up properly and things are fine if I remove the TIM_DIER_UIE bit.
Thanks for the help.
Andrew

Problem is, as soon as it hits the interrupt it gets an unhandled exception and sits in the infinite loop in vectors.c

Backtrace stopped: previous frame identical to this frame (corrupt stack?)
Anybody see any obvious reason why this could be happening? Timer counts up properly and things are fine if I remove the TIM_DIER_UIE bit.
