That's all a really great help actually (Y) it really is, so thank you kindly :) Please close again.

Hi @GaryDT

Thanks for your interests in the library and it's good you spent some time to research before posting issue.

1. Please describe the procedure for installing MBED 1.3.2 (and will this then mean that timer 1 will work after doing this?)

1. This is actually a basic question for Arduino forum, but anyway, just go to Tools => Board Manager, then select according to the following picture

You actually can install both v1.3.2 and v2.5.2+, at the same time, to use and test

2. Does this library make use of all 16 bit timers, e.g., will 10 micro seconds (or even lower, perhaps 1) be accurate? like when setting registers directly, as demonstrated in various AVR examples.

2. Check NRF52_MBED_TimerInterrupt.h#L108-L115

const char* NRF52_MBED_TimerName[NRF_MAX_TIMER] =
{
  "NRF_TIMER0",
  "NRF_TIMER1",
  "NRF_TIMER2-DON'T_USE_THIS",
  "NRF_TIMER3",
  "NRF_TIMER4",
};

To use Timer Interrupt correctly, you must have certain hardware /firmware knowledge, read MCU documents, core and/or library, and examples' codes and fully understand to the bit / register / timings level.

The library is just a simple wrapper for you to simplify / speed-up the job. You have to investigate and test yourself to see if it can help with your special or demanding use cases.

I'm so sorry I don't have time now to help you.

Good Luck,
