Timers aren't used for signal generation on ESP32. Use the LEDC , MCPWM or RMT units instead.


Thank you for your response!

I have been trying to use the LEDC units, however I am failing horribly.
I am not even able to configure the timer.
I took a look at the LEDC example, however it won't ...

I am still struggling with this. If what I'm asking for is not that simple, I would also highly appreciate any resources that explain timer manipulation in a more approachable way than the ESP32 documentation.

Hi,

I am trying to port a few lines of code written for an Arduino Uno over to an ESP32.

This is the original code (found here https://github.com/madlabdk/touche/blob/master/arduino/touche_graph/touche_graph.ino):

#define steps 128

void setup ()
{
pinMode (9, OUTPUT);
TCCR1A = 0;
TCCR1B = 0 ...
