9. Reset and clock control (RCC)

9.1 Reset

There are three types of reset, defined as system reset, power reset and RTC domain reset.

9.1.1 Power reset

A power reset is generated when one of the following events occurs:

1. 1. Power-on/power-down reset (POR/PDR reset)
2. 2. When exiting Standby mode

A power reset sets all registers to their reset values except the RTC domain (see Figure 8 ).

9.1.2 System reset

A system reset sets all registers to their reset values unless specified otherwise in the register description.

A system reset is generated when one of the following events occurs:

1. 1. A low level on the NRST pin (external reset)
2. 2. Window watchdog event (WWDG reset)
3. 3. Independent watchdog event (IWDG reset)
4. 4. A software reset (SW reset) (see Software reset )
5. 5. Low-power management reset (see Low-power management reset )
6. 6. Option byte loader reset (see Option byte loader reset )
7. 7. A power reset

The reset source can be identified by checking the reset flags in the Control/Status register, RCC_CSR (see Section 9.4.10: Control/status register (RCC_CSR) ).

These sources act on the NRST pin and it is always kept low during the delay phase. The RESET service routine vector is fixed at address 0x0000_0004 in the memory map.

The system reset signal provided to the device is output on the NRST pin. The pulse generator guarantees a minimum reset pulse duration of 20 µs for each internal reset source. In case of an external reset, the reset pulse is generated while the NRST pin is asserted low.

Figure 12. Simplified diagram of the reset circuit

Software reset

The SYSRESETREQ bit in Cortex-M4 ^® F application interrupt and reset control register must be set to force a software reset on the device. Refer to the STM32 Cortex ^® -M4 MCUs and MPUs programming manual (PM0214) for more details.

Low-power management reset

There are two ways to generate a low-power management reset:

1. 1. Reset generated when entering Standby mode:
   This type of reset is enabled by resetting nRST_STDBY bit in User Option Bytes. In this case, whenever a Standby mode entry sequence is successfully executed, the device is reset instead of entering Standby mode.
2. 2. Reset when entering Stop mode:
   This type of reset is enabled by resetting nRST_STOP bit in User Option Bytes. In this case, whenever a Stop mode entry sequence is successfully executed, the device is reset instead of entering Stop mode.

For further information on the User Option Bytes, refer to Section 5: Option byte description .

Option byte loader reset

The option byte loader reset is generated when the OBL_LAUNCH bit (bit 13) is set in the FLASH_CR register. This bit is used to launch the option byte loading by software.

9.1.3 RTC domain reset

The RTC domain has two specific resets that affect only the RTC domain ( Figure 8 ).

An RTC domain reset only affects the LSE oscillator, the RTC, the Backup registers, and the RCC RTC domain control register (RCC_BDCR) . It is generated when one of the following events occurs.

1. 1. Software reset, triggered by setting the BDRST bit in the RTC domain control register (RCC_BDCR) .
2. 2. V _DD power-up if V _BAT has been disconnected when it was low.

The backup registers are also reset when one of the following events occurs:

1. 1. RTC tamper detection event.
2. 2. Change of the read out protection from level 1 to level 0.

9.2 Clocks

Three different clock sources can be used to drive the system clock (SYSCLK):

• • HSI 8 MHz RC oscillator clock
• • HSE oscillator clock
• • PLL clock

The devices have the following additional clock sources:

• • 40 kHz low speed internal RC (LSI RC) which drives the independent watchdog and optionally the RTC used for Auto-wakeup from Stop/Standby mode.
• • 32.768 kHz low speed external crystal (LSE crystal) which optionally drives the real-time clock (RTCCLK)

Each clock source can be switched on or off independently when it is not used, to optimize power consumption.

Several prescalers can be used to configure the AHB frequency, the high speed APB (APB2) and the low speed APB (APB1) domains. The maximum frequency of the AHB and APB2 domains is 72 MHz. The maximum allowed frequency of the APB1 domain is 36 MHz.

All the peripheral clocks are derived from their bus clock (HCLK, PCLK1 or PCLK2) except:

• • The flash memory programming interface clock (FLITFCLK) which is always the HSI clock.
• • The 48-MHz USB clock which is derived from the PLL VCO (STM32F303xB/C/D/E devices)
• • The option byte loader clock, which is always the HSI clock
• • The ADCs clock, which is derived from the PLL output. It can reach 72 MHz and can then be divided by 1,2,4,6,8,10,12,16,32,64,128 or 256.
• • The U(S)ARTs clock, which is derived (selected by software) from one of the four following sources:
  • – system clock
  • – HSI clock
  • – LSE clock
  • – APB1 or APB2 clock (PCLK1 or PCLK2 depending on which APB is mapped the USART)
• • The I2C1/2 (I2C1/2/3 in STM32F303xD/E and STM32F398xE) clock, which is derived (selected by software) from one of the two following sources:
  • – system clock
  • – HSI clock
• • The I2S2 and I2S3 clocks, which can be derived from an external dedicated clock source.
• • The RTC clock which is derived from the LSE, LSI or from the HSE clock divided by 32.
• • The IWDG clock, which is always the LSI clock.

The RCC feeds the Cortex System Timer (SysTick) external clock with the AHB clock (HCLK) divided by 8. The SysTick can work either with this clock or directly with the Cortex clock (HCLK), configurable in the SysTick Control and Status Register.

9.2.1 HSE clock

The high speed external clock signal (HSE) can be generated from two possible clock sources:

• • HSE external crystal/ceramic resonator
• • HSE user external clock

The resonator and the load capacitors have to be placed as close as possible to the oscillator pins to minimize output distortion and startup stabilization time. The loading capacitance values must be adjusted according to the selected oscillator.

Figure 16. HSE/ LSE clock sources

External crystal/ceramic resonator (HSE crystal)

The 4 to 32 MHz external oscillator has the advantage of producing a very accurate rate on the main clock.

The associated hardware configuration is shown in Figure 16 . Refer to the electrical characteristics section of the datasheet for more details.

The HSERDY flag in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) indicates if the HSE oscillator is stable or not. At startup, the clock is not released until this bit is set by hardware. An interrupt can be generated if enabled in the Clock interrupt register (RCC_CIR) .

The HSE Crystal can be switched on and off using the HSEON bit in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) .

Caution: To switch ON the HSE oscillator, 512 HSE clock pulses need to be seen by an internal stabilization counter after the HSEON bit is set. Even in the case that no crystal or resonator is connected to the device, excessive external noise on the OSC_IN pin may still lead the oscillator to start. Once the oscillator is started, it needs another 6 HSE clock pulses to complete a switching OFF sequence. If for any reason the oscillations are no more present on the OSC_IN pin, the oscillator cannot be switched OFF, locking the OSC pins from any other use and introducing unwanted power consumption. To avoid such situation, it is strongly recommended to always enable the Clock Security System (CSS) which is able to switch OFF the oscillator even in this case.

External source (HSE bypass)

In this mode, an external clock source must be provided. It can have a frequency of up to 32 MHz. Select this mode by setting the HSEBYP and HSEON bits in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) . The external clock signal (square, sinus or triangle) with ~40-60% duty cycle depending on the frequency (refer to the datasheet ) has to drive the OSC_IN pin while the OSC_OUT pin can be used a GPIO. See Figure 16 .

9.2.2 HSI clock

The HSI clock signal is generated from an internal 8 MHz RC Oscillator and can be used directly as a system clock or divided by 2 to be used as PLL input.

The HSI RC oscillator has the advantage of providing a clock source at low cost (no external components). It also has a faster startup time than the HSE crystal oscillator however, even with calibration the frequency is less accurate than an external crystal oscillator or ceramic resonator.

Calibration

RC oscillator frequencies can vary from one chip to another due to manufacturing process variations, this is why each device is factory calibrated by ST for 1% accuracy at \( T_A=25^\circ\text{C} \) .

After reset, the factory calibration value is loaded in the HSICAL[7:0] bits in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) .

If the application is subject to voltage or temperature variations this may affect the RC oscillator speed. The user can trim the HSI frequency in the application using the HSITRIM[4:0] bits in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) .

For more details on how to measure the HSI frequency variation, refer to Section 9.2.14: Internal/external clock measurement with TIM16 .

The HSIRDY flag in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) indicates if the HSI RC is stable or not. At startup, the HSI RC output clock is not released until this bit is set by hardware.

The HSI RC can be switched on and off using the HSION bit in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) .

The HSI signal can also be used as a backup source (Auxiliary clock) if the HSE crystal oscillator fails. Refer to Section 9.2.7: Clock security system (CSS) on page 134 .

9.2.3 PLL

The internal PLL can be used to multiply the HSI or HSE output clock frequency. Refer to Figure 13 and Clock control register (RCC_CR) .

The PLL configuration (selection of the input clock, and multiplication factor) must be done before enabling the PLL. Once the PLL is enabled, these parameters cannot be changed.

To modify the PLL configuration, proceed as follows:

1. 1. Disable the PLL by setting PLLON to 0.
2. 2. Wait until PLLRDY is cleared. The PLL is now fully stopped.
3. 3. Change the desired parameter.
4. 4. Enable the PLL again by setting PLLON to 1.

An interrupt can be generated when the PLL is ready, if enabled in the Clock interrupt register (RCC_CIR) .

The PLL output frequency must be set in the range 16-72 MHz.

9.2.4 LSE clock

The LSE crystal is a 32.768 kHz Low Speed External crystal or ceramic resonator. It has the advantage of providing a low-power but highly accurate clock source to the real-time clock peripheral (RTC) for clock/calendar or other timing functions.

The LSE crystal is switched on and off using the LSEON bit in RTC domain control register (RCC_BDCR) . The crystal oscillator driving strength can be changed at runtime using the LSEDRV[1:0] bits in the RTC domain control register (RCC_BDCR) to obtain the best compromise between robustness and short start-up time on one side and low-power-consumption on the other.

The LSERDY flag in the RTC domain control register (RCC_BDCR) indicates whether the LSE crystal is stable or not. At startup, the LSE crystal output clock signal is not released until this bit is set by hardware. An interrupt can be generated if enabled in the Clock interrupt register (RCC_CIR) .

Caution: To switch ON the LSE oscillator, 4096 LSE clock pulses need to be seen by an internal stabilization counter after the LSEON bit is set. Even in the case that no crystal or resonator is connected to the device, excessive external noise on the OSC32_IN pin may still lead the oscillator to start. Once the oscillator is started, it needs another 6 LSE clock pulses to complete a switching OFF sequence. If for any reason the oscillations are no more present on the OSC_IN pin, the oscillator cannot be switched OFF, locking the OSC32 pins from any other use and introducing unwanted power consumption. The only way to recover such situation is to perform the RTC domain reset by software.

External source (LSE bypass)

In this mode, an external clock source must be provided. It can have a frequency of up to 1 MHz. Select this mode by setting the LSEBYP and LSEON bits in the RTC domain control register (RCC_BDCR) . The external clock signal (square, sinus, or triangle) with ~50% duty cycle has to drive the OSC32_IN pin while the OSC32_OUT pin can be used as GPIO. See Figure 16 .

9.2.5 LSI clock

The LSI RC acts as a low-power clock source that can be kept running in Stop and Standby mode for the independent watchdog (IWDG) and RTC. The clock frequency is around 40 kHz (between 30 kHz and 50 kHz). For more details, refer to the electrical characteristics section of the datasheets.

The LSI RC can be switched on and off using the LSION bit in the Control/status register (RCC_CSR) .

The LSIRDY flag in the Control/status register (RCC_CSR) indicates if the LSI oscillator is stable or not. At startup, the clock is not released until this bit is set by hardware. An interrupt can be generated if enabled in the Clock interrupt register (RCC_CIR) .

9.2.6 System clock (SYSCLK) selection

Three different clock sources can be used to drive the system clock (SYSCLK):

• • HSI oscillator
• • HSE oscillator
• • PLL

After a system reset, the HSI oscillator is selected as system clock. When a clock source is used directly or through the PLL as a system clock, it is not possible to stop it.

A switch from one clock source to another occurs only if the target clock source is ready (clock stable after startup delay or PLL locked). If a clock source, which is not yet ready is selected, the switch occurs when the clock source becomes ready. Status bits in the Clock control register (RCC_CR) indicate which clock(s) is (are) ready and which clock is currently used as a system clock.

9.2.7 Clock security system (CSS)

Clock Security System can be activated by software. In this case, the clock detector is enabled after the HSE oscillator startup delay, and disabled when this oscillator is stopped.

If a failure is detected on the HSE clock, the HSE oscillator is automatically disabled, a clock failure event is sent to the break input of the advanced-control timers (TIM1/TIM8 and TIM15/16/17) and an interrupt is generated to inform the software about the failure (Clock Security System Interrupt CSSI), allowing the MCU to perform rescue operations. The CSSI is linked to the Cortex-M4 ^® F NMI (non-maskable interrupt) exception vector.

Note: Once the CSS is enabled and if the HSE clock fails, the CSS interrupt occurs and an NMI is automatically generated. The NMI is executed indefinitely unless the CSS interrupt pending bit is cleared. As a consequence, in the NMI ISR user must clear the CSS interrupt by setting the CSSC bit in the Clock interrupt register (RCC_CIR) .

If the HSE oscillator is used directly or indirectly as the system clock (indirectly means: it is used as PLL input clock, and the PLL clock is used as system clock), a detected failure

causes a switch of the system clock to the HSI oscillator and the disabling of the HSE oscillator. If the HSE clock (divided or not) is the clock entry of the PLL used as system clock when the failure occurs, the PLL is disabled too.

9.2.8 ADC clock

The ADC clock is derived from the PLL output. It can reach 72 MHz and can be divided by the following prescalers values: 1, 2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 16, 32, 64, 128 or 256. It is asynchronous to the AHB clock. Alternatively, the ADC clock can be derived from the AHB clock of the ADC bus interface, divided by a programmable factor (1, 2 or 4). This programmable factor is configured using the CKMODE bit fields in the ADCx_CCR.

If the programmed factor is '1', the AHB prescaler must be set to '1'.

9.2.9 RTC clock

The RTCCLK clock source can be either the HSE/32, LSE or LSI clock. It is selected by programming the RTCSEL[1:0] bits in the RTC domain control register (RCC_BDCR) . This selection cannot be modified without resetting the RTC domain. The system must always be configured so as to get a PCLK frequency greater than or equal to the RTCCLK frequency for a proper operation of the RTC.

The LSE clock is in the RTC domain, whereas the HSE and LSI clocks are not. Consequently:

• • If LSE is selected as RTC clock:
  • – The RTC continues to work even if the \( V_{DD} \) supply is switched off, provided the \( V_{BAT} \) supply is maintained.
  • – The RTC remains clocked and functional under system reset.
• • If LSI is selected as the RTC clock:
  • – The RTC state is not guaranteed if the \( V_{DD} \) supply is powered off.
• • If the HSE clock divided by 32 is used as the RTC clock:
  • – The RTC state is not guaranteed if the \( V_{DD} \) supply is powered off or if the internal voltage regulator is powered off (removing power from the 1.8 V domain).

9.2.10 Timers (TIMx) clock

APB clock source

The timers clock frequencies are automatically defined by hardware. There are two cases:

1. 1. If the APB prescaler equals 1, the timer clock frequencies are set to the same frequency as that of the APB domain.
2. 2. Otherwise, they are set to twice ( \( \times 2 \) ) the frequency of the APB domain.

PLL clock source

A clock issued from the PLL (PLLCLK \( \times 2 \) ) can be selected for TIMx ( \( x = 1, 8 \) on the STM32F303xB/C and STM32F358xC; \( x = 1, 2, 3, 4, 8, 15, 16, 17, 20 \) on STM32F303xD/E; \( x = 1 \) on the STM32F303x6/8 and STM32F328x8). This configuration allows to feed TIMx with a frequency up to 144 MHz when the system clock source is the PLL.

In this configuration:

• • On the STM32F303xB/C and STM32F358xC, AHB and APB2 prescalers are set to 1, that is, AHB and APB2 clocks are not divided with respect to the system clock.
• • On the STM32F303xD/E, STM32F303x6/8 and STM32F328x8 AHB or APB2 subsystem clocks are not divided by more than 2 cumulatively with respect to the system clock.

9.2.11 Watchdog clock

If the Independent watchdog (IWDG) is started by either hardware option or software access, the LSI oscillator is forced ON and cannot be disabled. After the LSI oscillator temporization, the clock is provided to the IWDG.

9.2.12 I2S clock (only in STM32F303xB/C/D/E, STM32F358xC and STM32F398xE)

The I2S clock can be either the System clock or an external clock provided on I2S_CKIN pin. The selection of the I2S clock source is performed using bit 23 (I2SSRC) of RCC_CFGR register.

9.2.13 Clock-out capability

The microcontroller clock output (MCO) capability allows the clock to be output onto the external MCO pin. The configuration registers of the corresponding GPIO port must be programmed in alternate function mode. One of 5 clock signals can be selected as the MCO clock.

• • LSI
• • LSE
• • SYSCLK
• • HSI
• • HSE
• • PLL clock divided by 2

The selection is controlled by the MCO[2:0] bits in the Clock configuration register (RCC_CFGR) .

On the STM32F303xD/E, STM32F303x6/8 and STM32F328x8, the additional bit PLLNODIV in this register controls the divider bypass for a PLL clock input to MCO. The MCO frequency can be reduced by a configurable divider, controlled by the MCOPRE[2:0] bits of the Clock configuration register (RCC_CFGR).

9.2.14 Internal/external clock measurement with TIM16

It is possible to indirectly measure the frequency of all on-board clock sources by means of the TIM16 channel 1 input capture. As represented on Figure 17 .

Figure 17. Frequency measurement with TIM16 in capture mode

The input capture channel of the Timer 16 can be a GPIO line or an internal clock of the MCU. This selection is performed through the TI1_RMP [1:0] bits in the TIM16_OR register. The possibilities available are the following ones.

• • TIM16 Channel1 is connected to the GPIO. Refer to the alternate function mapping in the device datasheets.
• • TIM16 Channel1 is connected to the RTCCLK.
• • TIM16 Channel1 is connected to the HSE/32 Clock.
• • TIM16 Channel1 is connected to the microcontroller clock output (MCO), this selection is controlled by the MCO[2:0] bits of the Clock configuration register (RCC_CFGR).

Calibration of the HSI

The primary purpose of connecting the LSE, through the MCO multiplexer, to the channel 1 input capture is to be able to precisely measure the HSI system clocks (for this, the HSI should be used as the system clock source). The number of HSI clock counts between consecutive edges of the LSE signal provides a measure of the internal clock period. Taking advantage of the high precision of LSE crystals (typically a few tens of ppm's), it is possible to determine the internal clock frequency with the same resolution, and trim the source to compensate for manufacturing-process- and/or temperature- and voltage-related frequency deviations.

The HSI oscillator has dedicated user-accessible calibration bits for this purpose.

The basic concept consists in providing a relative measurement (for example, the HSI/LSE ratio): the precision is therefore closely related to the ratio between the two clock sources. The higher the ratio is, the better the measurement is.

If LSE is not available, HSE/32 is the better option to reach the most precise calibration possible.

Calibration of the LSI

The calibration of the LSI follows the same pattern that for the HSI, but changing the reference clock. It is necessary to connect LSI clock to the channel 1 input capture of the TIM16. Then define the HSE as system clock source, the number of his clock counts between consecutive edges of the LSI signal provides a measure of the internal low speed clock period.

The basic concept consists in providing a relative measurement (for example, the HSE/LSI ratio): the precision is therefore closely related to the ratio between the two clock sources. The higher the ratio is, the better the measurement is.

9.3 Low-power modes

APB peripheral clocks and DMA clock can be disabled by software.

Sleep mode stops the CPU clock. The memory interface clocks (Flash and RAM interfaces) can be stopped by software during sleep mode. The AHB to APB bridge clocks are disabled by hardware during Sleep mode when all the clocks of the peripherals connected to them are disabled.

Stop mode stops all the clocks in the V18 domain and disables the PLL, the HSI and the HSE oscillators.

All U(S)ARTs and I2Cs have the capability to enable the HSI oscillator even when the MCU is in Stop mode (if HSI is selected as the clock source for that peripheral).

All U(S)ARTs can also be driven by the LSE oscillator when the system is in Stop mode (if LSE is selected as clock source for that peripheral) and the LSE oscillator is enabled (LSEON) but they do not have the capability to turn on the LSE oscillator.

Standby mode stops all the clocks in the V18 domain and disables the PLL and the HSI and HSE oscillators.

The CPU's deepsleep mode can be overridden for debugging by setting the DBG_STOP or DBG_STANDBY bits in the DBGMCU_CR register.

When waking up from deepsleep after an interrupt (Stop mode) or reset (Standby mode), the HSI oscillator is selected as system clock.

If a flash programming operation is on going, deep-sleep mode entry is delayed until the flash interface access is finished. If an access to the APB domain is ongoing, deepsleep mode entry is delayed until the APB access is finished.
