No TC interrupt with Timer [v2.80]

[user_4371246]

I'm new with Cypress CPUs (PSoC). In the past I worked with NXP, Microchip and Atmel. (now also Microchip)

At the first sight everthing sounds very easy and workable. I like the thinking of documentation cos I need it for

class B or class C medical software. And I must rate the reliability of the environment.

After 3 days I'm very disapointed. But ok, let's see.

I'm again confused about the easy looking and configurable blocks that not deliver what they promised at the first sight.

Now the block Timer[v2.80]

I set it as desired and choosed Interrupt on TC. I set a Interrupt to the interrupt output.

This timer is conigured to provide every 1ms an INT.

After setting a breakpoint in the INT and rung a debugg sessionI get two times a halt at the breakpoint, then never again.

So what is the problem? Is it a bug?

For demonstrating I created a new project, just for show the problem.

#include "project.h"

uint32 systickcounter = 0;

CY_ISR(SysTick_INT)

{

    systickcounter++;

}

int main(void)

{

SysTick_INT_StartEx(SysTick_INT);

SysTick_Start();

CyGlobalIntEnable; /* Enable global interrupts. */

for(;;)

    {

        /* Place your application code here. */

    }

}
