22. General-purpose timers (TIM15/TIM16/TIM17)

22.1 TIM15/TIM16/TIM17 introduction

The TIM15/TIM16/TIM17 timers consist of a 16-bit auto-reload counter driven by a programmable prescaler.

They may be used for a variety of purposes, including measuring the pulse lengths of input signals (input capture) or generating output waveforms (output compare, PWM, complementary PWM with dead-time insertion).

Pulse lengths and waveform periods can be modulated from a few microseconds to several milliseconds using the timer prescaler and the RCC clock controller prescalers.

The TIM15/TIM16/TIM17 timers are completely independent, and do not share any resources. TIM15 can be synchronized as described in Section 22.4.21: Timer synchronization (TIM15) .

22.4 TIM15/TIM16/TIM17 functional description

22.4.1 Time-base unit

The main block of the programmable advanced-control timer is a 16-bit upcounter with its related auto-reload register. The counter clock can be divided by a prescaler.

The counter, the auto-reload register and the prescaler register can be written or read by software. This is true even when the counter is running.

The time-base unit includes:

The auto-reload register is preloaded. Writing to or reading from the auto-reload register accesses the preload register. The content of the preload register are transferred into the shadow register permanently or at each update event (UEV), depending on the auto-reload preload enable bit (ARPE) in TIMx_CR1 register. The update event is sent when the counter reaches the overflow and if the UDIS bit equals 0 in the TIMx_CR1 register. It can also be generated by software. The generation of the update event is described in detailed for each configuration.

The counter is clocked by the prescaler output CK_CNT, which is enabled only when the counter enable bit (CEN) in TIMx_CR1 register is set (refer also to the slave mode controller description to get more details on counter enabling).

Note that the counter starts counting 1 clock cycle after setting the CEN bit in the TIMx_CR1 register.

Prescaler description

The prescaler can divide the counter clock frequency by any factor between 1 and 65536. It is based on a 16-bit counter controlled through a 16-bit register (in the TIMx_PSC register). It can be changed on the fly as this control register is buffered. The new prescaler ratio is taken into account at the next update event.

Figure 241 and Figure 242 give some examples of the counter behavior when the prescaler ratio is changed on the fly:

Figure 241. Counter timing diagram with prescaler division change from 1 to 2

Timing diagram for Figure 241 showing counter timing with prescaler division change from 1 to 2. The diagram includes signals for CK_PSC, CEN, Timerclock = CK_CNT, Counter register, Update event (UEV), Prescaler control register, Prescaler buffer, and Prescaler counter. The counter register values are F7, F8, F9, FA, FB, FC, 00, 01, 02, 03. The prescaler control register changes from 0 to 1. The prescaler counter counts 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1.

The diagram illustrates the timing of a timer counter when the prescaler division is changed from 1 to 2. The top signal, CK_PSC, is a periodic clock. The CEN signal is active-low and is held high. The Timerclock = CK_CNT signal is derived from CK_PSC. The Counter register shows a sequence of values: F7, F8, F9, FA, FB, FC, 00, 01, 02, 03. An Update event (UEV) occurs when the counter reaches FC. The Prescaler control register is initially 0 and is changed to 1 by writing a new value in TIMx_PSC. The Prescaler buffer follows the control register. The Prescaler counter counts 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, 0, 1, indicating a division of 2. The diagram is labeled MS31076V2.

22.4.2 Counter modes

Upcounting mode

In upcounting mode, the counter counts from 0 to the auto-reload value (content of the TIMx_ARR register), then restarts from 0 and generates a counter overflow event.

If the repetition counter is used, the update event (UEV) is generated after upcounting is repeated for the number of times programmed in the repetition counter register (TIMx_RCR). Else the update event is generated at each counter overflow.

Setting the UG bit in the TIMx_EGR register (by software or by using the slave mode controller) also generates an update event.

The UEV event can be disabled by software by setting the UDIS bit in the TIMx_CR1 register. This is to avoid updating the shadow registers while writing new values in the preload registers. Then no update event occurs until the UDIS bit has been written to 0. However, the counter restarts from 0, as well as the counter of the prescaler (but the prescale rate does not change). In addition, if the URS bit (update request selection) in TIMx_CR1 register is set, setting the UG bit generates an update event UEV but without setting the UIF flag (thus no interrupt or DMA request is sent). This is to avoid generating both update and capture interrupts when clearing the counter on the capture event.

When an update event occurs, all the registers are updated and the update flag (UIF bit in TIMx_SR register) is set (depending on the URS bit):

The following figures show some examples of the counter behavior for different clock frequencies when TIMx_ARR=0x36.

22.4.3 Repetition counter

Section 22.4.1: Time-base unit describes how the update event (UEV) is generated with respect to the counter overflows. It is actually generated only when the repetition counter has reached zero. This can be useful when generating PWM signals.

This means that data are transferred from the preload registers to the shadow registers (TIMx_ARR auto-reload register, TIMx_PSC prescaler register, but also TIMx_CCRx capture/compare registers in compare mode) every N counter overflows, where N is the value in the TIMx_RCR repetition counter register.

The repetition counter is decremented at each counter overflow.

The repetition counter is an auto-reload type; the repetition rate is maintained as defined by the TIMx_RCR register value (refer to Figure 249 ). When the update event is generated by software (by setting the UG bit in TIMx_EGR register) or by hardware through the slave mode controller, it occurs immediately whatever the value of the repetition counter is and the repetition counter is reloaded with the content of the TIMx_RCR register.

The diagram illustrates the Counter TIMx_CNT (a sawtooth waveform) and the Update Event (UEV) for different TIMx_RCR settings. The UEV is indicated by a lightning bolt symbol and an arrow pointing to the counter. The update rate is determined by the TIMx_RCR register setting. For TIMx_RCR = 0, the UEV occurs at every counter overflow. For TIMx_RCR = 1, the UEV occurs every 2 counter overflows. For TIMx_RCR = 2, the UEV occurs every 3 counter overflows.

22.4.4 Clock selection

The counter clock can be provided by the following clock sources:

Internal clock source (CK_INT)

If the slave mode controller is disabled (SMS=000), then the CEN (in the TIMx_CR1 register) and UG bits (in the TIMx_EGR register) are actual control bits and can be changed

only by software (except UG which remains cleared automatically). As soon as the CEN bit is written to 1, the prescaler is clocked by the internal clock CK_INT.

Figure 250 shows the behavior of the control circuit and the upcounter in normal mode, without prescaler.

Figure 250. Control circuit in normal mode, internal clock divided by 1

The diagram displays five signals over time: Internal clock (a continuous square wave), CEN=CNT_EN (a signal that goes high at the start), UG (a pulse that goes high after CEN), CNT_INIT (a pulse that goes high after UG), and Counter register (showing values 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07). The Counter clock = CK_CNT = CK_PSC is shown as a square wave that starts when CEN goes high. The counter register values increment by 1 each clock cycle, starting from 31, rolling over to 00, and continuing to 07.

The Counter clock = CK_CNT = CK_PSC is shown as a square wave that starts when CEN goes high. The counter register values increment by 1 each clock cycle, starting from 31, rolling over to 00, and continuing to 07.

External clock source mode 1

This mode is selected when SMS=111 in the TIMx_SMCR register. The counter can count at each rising or falling edge on a selected input.

Figure 251. TI2 external clock connection example

Block diagram for Figure 251 showing the TI2 external clock connection example. The diagram shows the TI2 input connected to a Filter, which is controlled by ICF[3:0] in TIMx_CCMR1. The Filter output goes to an Edge detector, which is controlled by CC2P in TIMx_CCER. The Edge detector outputs TI2F_Rising and TI2F_Falling signals. These signals are multiplexed by a 2-to-1 mux controlled by CC2P. The output of the mux is connected to a TRGI input of a block labeled 'External clock mode 1'. The TRGI input also receives signals from ITRx, TI1_ED, TI1FP1, and TI2FP2, which are controlled by TS[2:0] in TIMx_SMCR. The 'External clock mode 1' block outputs CK_PSC. The 'Internal clock mode' block receives CK_INT (internal clock) and is controlled by SMS[2:0] in TIMx_SMCR. The CK_PSC signal is also output from the 'Internal clock mode' block.

MS31086V2

Block diagram for Figure 251 showing the TI2 external clock connection example. The diagram shows the TI2 input connected to a Filter, which is controlled by ICF[3:0] in TIMx_CCMR1. The Filter output goes to an Edge detector, which is controlled by CC2P in TIMx_CCER. The Edge detector outputs TI2F_Rising and TI2F_Falling signals. These signals are multiplexed by a 2-to-1 mux controlled by CC2P. The output of the mux is connected to a TRGI input of a block labeled 'External clock mode 1'. The TRGI input also receives signals from ITRx, TI1_ED, TI1FP1, and TI2FP2, which are controlled by TS[2:0] in TIMx_SMCR. The 'External clock mode 1' block outputs CK_PSC. The 'Internal clock mode' block receives CK_INT (internal clock) and is controlled by SMS[2:0] in TIMx_SMCR. The CK_PSC signal is also output from the 'Internal clock mode' block.

For example, to configure the upcounter to count in response to a rising edge on the TI2 input, use the following procedure:

  1. 1. Configure channel 2 to detect rising edges on the TI2 input by writing CC2S = '01' in the TIMx_CCMR1 register.
  2. 2. Configure the input filter duration by writing the IC2F[3:0] bits in the TIMx_CCMR1 register (if no filter is needed, keep IC2F=0000).
  3. 3. Select rising edge polarity by writing CC2P=0 in the TIMx_CCER register.
  4. 4. Configure the timer in external clock mode 1 by writing SMS=111 in the TIMx_SMCR register.
  5. 5. Select TI2 as the trigger input source by writing TS=110 in the TIMx_SMCR register.
  6. 6. Enable the counter by writing CEN=1 in the TIMx_CR1 register.

Note: The capture prescaler is not used for triggering, so it does not need to be configured.

When a rising edge occurs on TI2, the counter counts once and the TIF flag is set.

The delay between the rising edge on TI2 and the actual clock of the counter is due to the resynchronization circuit on TI2 input.

The TI2 signal shows two rising edges. The CNT_EN signal is high. The Counter clock is a periodic signal. The Counter register values are 34, 35, and 36. The TIF flag is set (high) after each rising edge on TI2 and is cleared by writing TIF=0.

22.4.5 Capture/compare channels

Each Capture/Compare channel is built around a capture/compare register (including a shadow register), a input stage for capture (with digital filter, multiplexing and prescaler) and an output stage (with comparator and output control).

Figure 253 to Figure 256 give an overview of one Capture/Compare channel.

The input stage samples the corresponding TIx input to generate a filtered signal TIxF. Then, an edge detector with polarity selection generates a signal (TIxFPx) which can be used as trigger input by the slave mode controller or as the capture command. It is prescaled before the capture register (ICxPS).

Figure 253. Capture/compare channel (example: channel 1 input stage)

Figure 253: Capture/compare channel (example: channel 1 input stage) block diagram. The diagram shows the input stage for channel 1. An external signal TI1 is processed through a 'Filter downcounter' (with ICF[3:0] from TIMx_CCMR1) to produce TI1F. This is then processed by an 'Edge detector' to produce TI1F_Rising and TI1F_Falling signals. These signals are multiplexed (0 for Rising, 1 for Falling) to form TI1FP1. Another multiplexer (0 for TI1F_Rising, 1 for TI1F_Falling from channel 2) also forms TI1FP1. An OR gate combines TI1F_ED and TI1FP1 to signal 'To the slave mode controller'. TI1FP1 is also multiplexed (0 for TI1FP1, 10 for TI2FP1, 11 for TRC from slave mode controller) to form IC1. IC1 is then processed by a 'Divider /1, /2, /4, /8' (with CC1S[1:0] and ICPS[1:0] from TIMx_CCMR1) to produce IC1PS. CC1P from TIMx_CCER and CC1E from TIMx_CCER are also shown.

The output stage generates an intermediate waveform which is then used for reference: OCxRef (active high). The polarity acts at the end of the chain.

Figure 254: Capture/compare channel 1 main circuit block diagram. The diagram shows the main circuit for channel 1. At the top, an 'APB Bus' connects to an 'MCU-peripheral interface', which in turn connects to a 'Capture/compare preload register' and a 'compare shadow register' via a 16/32-bit bus. Below these registers is a 'Counter'. A 'Comparator' compares the Counter value with the compare shadow register value to produce 'CNT>CCR1' and 'CNT=CCR1' signals. In 'Input mode', signals CC1S[1], CC1S[0], IC1PS, CC1E, and CC1G (from TIMx_EGR) are used to control 'Capture' and 'Compare transfer' operations between the registers and the counter. In 'Output mode', signals CC1S[1], CC1S[0], OC1PE, and UEV (from time base unit) are used to control the output. The output stage includes an OR gate and an inverter to produce the final output OC1PE.

Figure 255. Output stage of capture/compare channel (channel 1)

Figure 255: Output stage of capture/compare channel (channel 1). This block diagram shows the internal logic for generating the OC1 and OC1N output signals. It starts with the Output mode controller receiving inputs from OCREF_CLR, CNT>CCR1, CNT=CCR1, and OC2REF. It outputs OC1REF to an Output selector and OC1REFC to a Dead-time generator. The Output selector also receives inputs from TIMx_CCMR1 (OC1CE, OC1M[3:0]) and the Dead-time generator. The Dead-time generator outputs OC1_DT and OC1N_DT signals. These signals pass through multiplexers (selecting between '0', '1', or the signal itself) and then through inverters. The outputs of the inverters are connected to two Output enable circuits. The first Output enable circuit receives inputs from TIM1_CCER (CC1P, TIM1_CCER) and TIMx_CCMR1 (CC1NE, CC1E). The second Output enable circuit receives inputs from TIMx_CCER (CC1NP, MOE, OSSI, OSSR) and TIMx_CR2 (OIS1, OIS1N). The final outputs are OC1 and OC1N. A signal 'To the master mode controller' is also shown.

The output of this second multiplexer is connected to an Output enable circuit. The Output enable circuit receives inputs from TIMx_CCER (CC2E, TIMx_CCER) and TIMx_CR2 (OIS2). The final output is OC2. A signal 'To the master mode controller' is also shown.

The capture/compare block is made of one preload register and one shadow register. Write and read always access the preload register.

In capture mode, captures are actually done in the shadow register, which is copied into the preload register.

In compare mode, the content of the preload register is copied into the shadow register which is compared to the counter.

22.4.6 Input capture mode

In Input capture mode, the Capture/Compare registers (TIMx_CCRx) are used to latch the value of the counter after a transition detected by the corresponding ICx signal. When a capture occurs, the corresponding CCxIF flag (TIMx_SR register) is set and an interrupt or a DMA request can be sent if they are enabled. If a capture occurs while the CCxIF flag was

already high, then the over-capture flag CCxOF (TIMx_SR register) is set. CCxIF can be cleared by software by writing it to '0' or by reading the captured data stored in the TIMx_CCRx register. CCxOF is cleared when it is written with 0.

The following example shows how to capture the counter value in TIMx_CCR1 when TI1 input rises. To do this, use the following procedure:

  1. 1. Select the active input: TIMx_CCR1 must be linked to the TI1 input, so write the CC1S bits to 01 in the TIMx_CCMR1 register. As soon as CC1S becomes different from 00, the channel is configured in input and the TIMx_CCR1 register becomes read-only.
  2. 2. Program the appropriate input filter duration in relation with the signal connected to the timer (when the input is one of the TIx (ICxF bits in the TIMx_CCMRx register). Let's imagine that, when toggling, the input signal is not stable during at least 5 internal clock cycles. We must program a filter duration longer than these 5 clock cycles. We can validate a transition on TI1 when 8 consecutive samples with the new level have been detected (sampled at \( f_{DTS} \) frequency). Then write IC1F bits to 0011 in the TIMx_CCMR1 register.
  3. 3. Select the edge of the active transition on the TI1 channel by writing CC1P bit to 0 in the TIMx_CCER register (rising edge in this case).
  4. 4. Program the input prescaler. In our example, we wish the capture to be performed at each valid transition, so the prescaler is disabled (write IC1PS bits to '00' in the TIMx_CCMR1 register).
  5. 5. Enable capture from the counter into the capture register by setting the CC1E bit in the TIMx_CCER register.
  6. 6. If needed, enable the related interrupt request by setting the CC1IE bit in the TIMx_DIER register, and/or the DMA request by setting the CC1DE bit in the TIMx_DIER register.

When an input capture occurs:

In order to handle the overcapture, it is recommended to read the data before the overcapture flag. This is to avoid missing an overcapture which could happen after reading the flag and before reading the data.

Note: IC interrupt and/or DMA requests can be generated by software by setting the corresponding CCxG bit in the TIMx_EGR register.

22.4.7 PWM input mode (only for TIM15)

This mode is a particular case of input capture mode. The procedure is the same except:

For example, one can measure the period (in TIMx_CCR1 register) and the duty cycle (in TIMx_CCR2 register) of the PWM applied on TI1 using the following procedure (depending on CK_INT frequency and prescaler value):

  1. 1. Select the active input for TIMx_CCR1: write the CC1S bits to 01 in the TIMx_CCMR1 register (TI1 selected).
  2. 2. Select the active polarity for TI1FP1 (used both for capture in TIMx_CCR1 and counter clear): write the CC1P and CC1NP bits to '0' (active on rising edge).
  3. 3. Select the active input for TIMx_CCR2: write the CC2S bits to 10 in the TIMx_CCMR1 register (TI1 selected).
  4. 4. Select the active polarity for TI1FP2 (used for capture in TIMx_CCR2): write the CC2P and CC2NP bits to '10' (active on falling edge).
  5. 5. Select the valid trigger input: write the TS bits to 101 in the TIMx_SMCR register (TI1FP1 selected).
  6. 6. Configure the slave mode controller in reset mode: write the SMS bits to 100 in the TIMx_SMCR register.
  7. 7. Enable the captures: write the CC1E and CC2E bits to '1' in the TIMx_CCER register.

Figure 257. PWM input mode timing

Timing diagram for PWM input mode. It shows four horizontal lines: TI1 (input signal), TIMx_CNT (counter values), TIMx_CCR1 (capture register 1), and TIMx_CCR2 (capture register 2). The TI1 signal is a PWM signal. The TIMx_CNT counter starts at 0004, then resets to 0000 at the first rising edge of TI1, then increments through 0001, 0002, 0003, 0004, and resets to 0000 at the next rising edge. TIMx_CCR1 captures the value 0004 at the first rising edge. TIMx_CCR2 captures the value 0002 at the first falling edge. Annotations below the diagram indicate: 'IC1 capture, IC2 capture, reset counter' at the first rising edge; 'IC2 capture pulse width measurement' at the first falling edge; and 'IC1 capture period measurement' at the second rising edge. The diagram is labeled ai15413.

  1. 1. The PWM input mode can be used only with the TIMx_CH1/TIMx_CH2 signals due to the fact that only TI1FP1 and TI2FP2 are connected to the slave mode controller.

22.4.8 Forced output mode

In output mode (CCxS bits = 00 in the TIMx_CCMRx register), each output compare signal (OCxREF and then OCx/OCxN) can be forced to active or inactive level directly by software, independently of any comparison between the output compare register and the counter.

To force an output compare signal (OCXREF/OCx) to its active level, one just needs to write 101 in the OCxM bits in the corresponding TIMx_CCMRx register. Thus OCXREF is forced high (OCxREF is always active high) and OCx get opposite value to CCxP polarity bit.

For example: CCxP=0 (OCx active high) => OCx is forced to high level.

The OCxREF signal can be forced low by writing the OCxM bits to 100 in the TIMx_CCMRx register.

Anyway, the comparison between the TIMx_CCRx shadow register and the counter is still performed and allows the flag to be set. Interrupt and DMA requests can be sent accordingly. This is described in the output compare mode section below.

22.4.9 Output compare mode

This function is used to control an output waveform or indicating when a period of time has elapsed.

When a match is found between the capture/compare register and the counter, the output compare function:

The TIMx_CCRx registers can be programmed with or without preload registers using the OCxPE bit in the TIMx_CCMRx register.

In output compare mode, the update event UEV has no effect on OCxREF and OCx output. The timing resolution is one count of the counter. Output compare mode can also be used to output a single pulse (in One-pulse mode).

Procedure

  1. 1. Select the counter clock (internal, external, prescaler).
  2. 2. Write the desired data in the TIMx_ARR and TIMx_CCRx registers.
  3. 3. Set the CCxIE bit if an interrupt request is to be generated.
  4. 4. Select the output mode. For example:
    • – Write OCxM = 011 to toggle OCx output pin when CNT matches CCRx
    • – Write OCxPE = 0 to disable preload register
    • – Write CCxP = 0 to select active high polarity
    • – Write CCxE = 1 to enable the output
  5. 5. Enable the counter by setting the CEN bit in the TIMx_CR1 register.

The TIMx_CCRx register can be updated at any time by software to control the output waveform, provided that the preload register is not enabled (OCxPE='0', else TIMx_CCRx shadow register is updated only at the next update event UEV). An example is given in Figure 258 .

Figure 258. Output compare mode, toggle on OC1

Timing diagram for Output compare mode, toggle on OC1. The diagram shows three horizontal timelines: TIM1_CNT, TIM1_CCR1, and OC1REF= OC1. TIM1_CNT starts at 0039, overflows to 003A, then 003B, and continues with values B200 and B201. TIM1_CCR1 is initially set to 003A and is updated to B201. An arrow points from the text 'Write B201h in the CC1R register' to the update of TIM1_CCR1. OC1REF= OC1 is a signal that is initially high, then goes low when TIM1_CNT reaches 003A, and returns high when TIM1_CNT reaches B201. Two arrows point from the rising and falling edges of OC1REF to the text 'Match detected on CCR1 Interrupt generated if enabled'. The diagram is labeled MS31092V1 in the bottom right corner.

22.4.10 PWM mode

Pulse Width Modulation mode allows a signal to be generated with a frequency determined by the value of the TIMx_ARR register and a duty cycle determined by the value of the TIMx_CCRx register.

The PWM mode can be selected independently on each channel (one PWM per OCx output) by writing '110' (PWM mode 1) or '111' (PWM mode 2) in the OCxM bits in the TIMx_CCMRx register. The corresponding preload register must be enabled by setting the OCxPE bit in the TIMx_CCMRx register, and eventually the auto-reload preload register (in upcounting or center-aligned modes) by setting the ARPE bit in the TIMx_CR1 register.

As the preload registers are transferred to the shadow registers only when an update event occurs, before starting the counter, all registers must be initialized by setting the UG bit in the TIMx_EGR register.

OCx polarity is software programmable using the CCxP bit in the TIMx_CCER register. It can be programmed as active high or active low. OCx output is enabled by a combination of the CCxE, CCxNE, MOE, OSSI and OSSR bits (TIMx_CCER and TIMx_BDTR registers). Refer to the TIMx_CCER register description for more details.

In PWM mode (1 or 2), TIMx_CNT and TIMx_CCRx are always compared to determine whether \( TIMx\_CCRx \leq TIMx\_CNT \) or \( TIMx\_CNT \leq TIMx\_CCRx \) (depending on the direction of the counter).

The TIM15/TIM16/TIM17 are capable of upcounting only. Refer to Upcounting mode on page 630 .

In the following example, we consider PWM mode 1. The reference PWM signal OCxREF is high as long as \( TIMx\_CNT < TIMx\_CCRx \) else it becomes low. If the compare value in TIMx_CCRx is greater than the auto-reload value (in TIMx_ARR) then OCxREF is held at

'1'. If the compare value is 0 then OCxRef is held at '0'. Figure 259 shows some edge-aligned PWM waveforms in an example where TIMx_ARR=8.

For CCRx=4, OCxREF is high from 0 to 4 and low from 4 to 8. For CCRx=8, OCxREF is high from 0 to 8 and low from 8 to 11. For CCRx>8, OCxREF is always high. For CCRx=0, OCxREF is always low.

22.4.11 Combined PWM mode (TIM15 only)

Combined PWM mode allows two edge or center-aligned PWM signals to be generated with programmable delay and phase shift between respective pulses. While the frequency is determined by the value of the TIMx_ARR register, the duty cycle and delay are determined by the two TIMx_CCRx registers. The resulting signals, OCxREFC, are made of an OR or AND logical combination of two reference PWMs:

Combined PWM mode can be selected independently on two channels (one OCx output per pair of CCR registers) by writing '1100' (Combined PWM mode 1) or '1101' (Combined PWM mode 2) in the OCxM bits in the TIMx_CCMRx register.

When a given channel is used as a combined PWM channel, its complementary channel must be configured in the opposite PWM mode (for instance, one in Combined PWM mode 1 and the other in Combined PWM mode 2).

Note: The OCxM[3:0] bit field is split into two parts for compatibility reasons, the most significant bit is not contiguous with the 3 least significant ones.

Figure 260 represents an example of signals that can be generated using Asymmetric PWM mode, obtained with the following configuration:

22.4.12 Complementary outputs and dead-time insertion

The TIM15/TIM16/TIM17 general-purpose timers can output one complementary signal and manage the switching-off and switching-on of the outputs.

This time is generally known as dead-time and it has to be adjusted depending on the devices that are connected to the outputs and their characteristics (intrinsic delays of level-shifters, delays due to power switches...)

The polarity of the outputs (main output OCx or complementary OCxN) can be selected independently for each output. This is done by writing to the CCxP and CCxNP bits in the TIMx_CCER register.

The complementary signals OCx and OCxN are activated by a combination of several control bits: the CCxE and CCxNE bits in the TIMx_CCER register and the MOE, OISx, OISxN, OSSI and OSSR bits in the TIMx_BDTR and TIMx_CR2 registers. Refer to Table 125: Output control bits for complementary OCx and OCxN channels with break feature (TIM16/17) on page 694 for more details. In particular, the dead-time is activated when switching to the idle state (MOE falling down to 0).

Dead-time insertion is enabled by setting both CCxE and CCxNE bits, and the MOE bit if the break circuit is present. There is one 10-bit dead-time generator for each channel. From a

reference waveform OCxREF, it generates 2 outputs OCx and OCxN. If OCx and OCxN are active high:

If the delay is greater than the width of the active output (OCx or OCxN) then the corresponding pulse is not generated.

The following figures show the relationships between the output signals of the dead-time generator and the reference signal OCxREF. (we suppose CCxP=0, CCxNP=0, MOE=1, CCxE=1 and CCxNE=1 in these examples)

The diagram illustrates the relationship between three signals over time. The top signal, OCxREF, is a reference signal that pulses high and then low. The middle signal, OCx, is an output signal that becomes active (high) when OCxREF is high and remains high until the complementary output OCxN becomes active. The bottom signal, OCxN, is the complementary output that becomes active (low) when OCxREF is high and remains low until OCx becomes active. A horizontal double-headed arrow labeled 'delay' indicates the time interval between the falling edge of OCxREF and the rising edge of OCxN, which is shown to be greater than the duration of the high pulse of OCxREF.

OCxN is a signal that goes low when OCxREF goes high and stays low until OCx goes high. A 'delay' is indicated between the falling edge of OCxREF and the rising edge of OCxN.

The dead-time delay is the same for each of the channels and is programmable with the DTG bits in the TIMx_BDTR register. Refer to Section 22.6.14: TIMx break and dead-time register (TIMx_BDTR)(x = 16 to 17) on page 697 for delay calculation.

Re-directing OCxREF to OCx or OCxN

In output mode (forced, output compare or PWM), OCxREF can be re-directed to the OCx output or to OCxN output by configuring the CCxE and CCxNE bits in the TIMx_CCER register.

This allows a specific waveform to be sent (such as PWM or static active level) on one output while the complementary remains at its inactive level. Other alternative possibilities are to have both outputs at inactive level or both outputs active and complementary with dead-time.

Note: When only OCxN is enabled (CCxE=0, CCxNE=1), it is not complemented and becomes active as soon as OCxREF is high. For example, if CCxNP=0 then OCxN=OCxRef. On the other hand, when both OCx and OCxN are enabled (CCxE=CCxNE=1) OCx becomes active when OCxREF is high whereas OCxN is complemented and becomes active when OCxREF is low.

22.4.13 Using the break function

The purpose of the break function is to protect power switches driven by PWM signals generated with the TIM15/TIM16/TIM17 timers. The break input is usually connected to fault outputs of power stages and 3-phase inverters. When activated, the break circuitry shuts down the PWM outputs and forces them to a predefined safe state.

When using the break function, the output enable signals and inactive levels are modified according to additional control bits (MOE, OSSI and OSSR bits in the TIMx_BDTR register, OISx and OISxN bits in the TIMx_CR2 register). In any case, the OCx and OCxN outputs cannot be set both to active level at a given time. Refer to Table 123: Output control bits for complementary OCx and OCxN channels with break feature (TIM15) on page 675 for more details.

The break source can be:


Warning: The internal sources protection is not available when the timer is automatic output enable mode (AOE bit set in the TIMx_BDTR). The MOE bit is set again on the next update event, regardless of any pending error on the BRK_ACTH input.


When exiting from reset, the break circuit is disabled and the MOE bit is low. The break function is enabled by setting the BKE bit in the TIMx_BDTR register. The break input polarity can be selected by configuring the BKP bit in the same register. BKE and BKP can be modified at the same time. When the BKE and BKP bits are written, a delay of 1 APB clock cycle is applied before the writing is effective. Consequently, it is necessary to wait 1 APB clock period to correctly read back the bit after the write operation.

Because MOE falling edge can be asynchronous, a resynchronization circuit has been inserted between the actual signal (acting on the outputs) and the synchronous control bit (accessed in the TIMx_BDTR register). It results in some delays between the asynchronous and the synchronous signals. In particular, if MOE is set to 1 whereas it was low, a delay must be inserted (dummy instruction) before reading it correctly. This is because the write acts on the asynchronous signal whereas the read reflects the synchronous signal.

The break is generated by the BRK inputs which has:

It is also possible to generate break events by software using BG bit in TIMx_EGR register.

When a break occurs (selected level on the break input):

Note: The break inputs is acting on level. Thus, the MOE cannot be set while the break input is active (neither automatically nor by software). In the meantime, the status flag BIF cannot be cleared.

The break can be generated by the BRK input which has a programmable polarity and an enable bit BKE in the TIMx_BDTR register.

In addition to the break input and the output management, a write protection has been implemented inside the break circuit to safeguard the application. It allows the configuration of several parameters to be freeze (dead-time duration, OCx/OCxN polarities and state when disabled, OCxM configurations, break enable and polarity). The protection can be selected among 3 levels with the LOCK bits in the TIMx_BDTR register. Refer to Section 22.6.14: TIMx break and dead-time register (TIMx_BDTR)(x = 16 to 17) on page 697 . The LOCK bits can be written only once after an MCU reset.

The Figure 264 shows an example of behavior of the outputs in response to a break.

22.4.14 One-pulse mode

One-pulse mode (OPM) is a particular case of the previous modes. It allows the counter to be started in response to a stimulus and to generate a pulse with a programmable length after a programmable delay.

Starting the counter can be controlled through the slave mode controller. Generating the waveform can be done in output compare mode or PWM mode. One-pulse mode is selected by setting the OPM bit in the TIMx_CR1 register. This makes the counter stop automatically at the next update event UEV.

A pulse can be correctly generated only if the compare value is different from the counter initial value. Before starting (when the timer is waiting for the trigger), the configuration must be:

Figure 265. Example of one pulse mode

Timing diagram for one pulse mode. The diagram shows four signals over time (t): 1. TI2: An input signal with a positive pulse that triggers the sequence. 2. OC1REF: A reference signal that goes low when the counter reaches TIM1_CCR1 and high when it reaches TIM1_ARR. 3. OC1: The output signal, which is the inverse of OC1REF in this example, showing a positive pulse. 4. Counter: A stepped ramp starting from 0 upon the TI2 trigger. It reaches the level TIM1_CCR1 (defining t_DELAY) and then continues to TIM1_ARR (defining t_PULSE) before resetting to 0. The diagram is labeled MS31099V1.

OC1REF: A reference signal that goes low when the counter reaches TIM1_CCR1 and high when it reaches TIM1_ARR. 3. OC1: The output signal, which is the inverse of OC1REF in this example, showing a positive pulse. 4. Counter: A stepped ramp starting from 0 upon the TI2 trigger. It reaches the level TIM1_CCR1 (defining t_DELAY) and then continues to TIM1_ARR (defining t_PULSE) before resetting to 0. The diagram is labeled MS31099V1.

For example one may want to generate a positive pulse on OC1 with a length of \( t_{PULSE} \) and after a delay of \( t_{DELAY} \) as soon as a positive edge is detected on the TI2 input pin.

Let's use TI2FP2 as trigger 1:

  1. 1. Map TI2FP2 to TI2 by writing CC2S='01' in the TIMx_CCMR1 register.
  2. 2. TI2FP2 must detect a rising edge, write CC2P='0' and CC2NP='0' in the TIMx_CCER register.
  3. 3. Configure TI2FP2 as trigger for the slave mode controller (TRGI) by writing TS='110' in the TIMx_SMCR register.
  4. 4. TI2FP2 is used to start the counter by writing SMS to '110' in the TIMx_SMCR register (trigger mode).

The OPM waveform is defined by writing the compare registers (taking into account the clock frequency and the counter prescaler).

Since only 1 pulse is needed, a 1 must be written in the OPM bit in the TIMx_CR1 register to stop the counter at the next update event (when the counter rolls over from the auto-reload value back to 0).

Particular case: OCx fast enable

In One-pulse mode, the edge detection on TIx input set the CEN bit which enables the counter. Then the comparison between the counter and the compare value makes the output toggle. But several clock cycles are needed for these operations and it limits the minimum delay \( t_{\text{DELAY min}} \) we can get.

If one wants to output a waveform with the minimum delay, the OCxFE bit can be set in the TIMx_CCMRx register. Then OCxRef (and OCx) are forced in response to the stimulus, without taking in account the comparison. Its new level is the same as if a compare match had occurred. OCxFE acts only if the channel is configured in PWM1 or PWM2 mode.

22.4.15 Retriggerable one pulse mode (TIM15 only)

This mode allows the counter to be started in response to a stimulus and to generate a pulse with a programmable length, but with the following differences with Non-retriggerable one pulse mode described in Section 22.4.14 :

The timer must be in Slave mode, with the bits SMS[3:0] = '1000' (Combined Reset + trigger mode) in the TIMx_SMCR register, and the OCxM[3:0] bits set to '1000' or '1001' for Retriggerable OPM mode 1 or 2.

If the timer is configured in Up-counting mode, the corresponding CCRx must be set to 0 (the ARR register sets the pulse length). If the timer is configured in Down-counting mode, CCRx must be above or equal to ARR.

Note: The OCxM[3:0] and SMS[3:0] bit fields are split into two parts for compatibility reasons, the most significant bit are not contiguous with the 3 least significant ones.

This mode must not be used with center-aligned PWM modes. It is mandatory to have CMS[1:0] = 00 in TIMx_CR1.

Figure 266. Retriggerable one pulse mode

Timing diagram for Retriggerable one pulse mode. The diagram shows three waveforms over time: TRGI (Trigger), Counter, and Output. TRGI shows three positive pulses. The first pulse starts the counter, which ramps up linearly. The Output goes high at the start of the counter. When the second TRGI pulse occurs while the counter is still running, the counter is reset and starts ramping up again. The Output remains high. When the third TRGI pulse occurs, the counter is reset again. The Output goes low only after the counter reaches its maximum value (ARR) and overflows. Vertical dashed lines indicate key timing points: trigger edges, counter start/reset points, and counter overflow points.

Vertical dashed lines indicate key timing points: trigger edges, counter start/reset points, and counter overflow points.

22.4.16 UIF bit remapping

The IUFREMAP bit in the TIMx_CR1 register forces a continuous copy of the Update Interrupt Flag UIF into bit 31 of the timer counter register (TIMxCNT[31]). This allows both the counter value and a potential roll-over condition signaled by the UIFCPY flag, to be atomically read. In particular cases, it can ease the calculations by avoiding race conditions

caused for instance by a processing shared between a background task (counter reading) and an interrupt (Update Interrupt).

There is no latency between the assertions of the UIF and UIFCPY flags.

22.4.17 Timer input XOR function (TIM15 only)

The TI1S bit in the TIMx_CR2 register, allows the input filter of channel 1 to be connected to the output of a XOR gate, combining the two input pins TIMx_CH1 and TIMx_CH2.

The XOR output can be used with all the timer input functions such as trigger or input capture. It is useful for measuring the interval between the edges on two input signals, as shown in Figure 267 .

Figure 267. Measuring time interval between edges on 2 signals

Timing diagram showing the measurement of time intervals between edges on two signals (TI1 and TI2) using the XOR output (TI1 XOR TI2) and a counter.

The diagram illustrates the timing relationship between two input signals, TI1 and TI2, and their XOR output, TI1 XOR TI2, for measuring time intervals. The signals are shown as square waves. Vertical dashed lines mark the rising and falling edges of the signals. The XOR output is high when the two input signals have different logic levels. Below the signals, a sawtooth waveform represents the Counter output, which increments on the rising edges of the XOR output signal. The time interval between two consecutive rising edges of the XOR output is measured by the counter.

22.4.18 External trigger synchronization (TIM15 only)

The TIM timers are linked together internally for timer synchronization or chaining.

The TIM15 timer can be synchronized with an external trigger in several modes: Reset mode, Gated mode and Trigger mode.

Slave mode: Reset mode

The counter and its prescaler can be reinitialized in response to an event on a trigger input. Moreover, if the URS bit from the TIMx_CR1 register is low, an update event UEV is generated. Then all the preloaded registers (TIMx_ARR, TIMx_CCRx) are updated.

In the following example, the upcounter is cleared in response to a rising edge on TI1 input:

  1. 1. Configure the channel 1 to detect rising edges on TI1. Configure the input filter duration (in this example, we do not need any filter, so we keep IC1F=0000). The capture prescaler is not used for triggering, so it does not need to be configured. The CC1S bits select the input capture source only, CC1S = 01 in the TIMx_CCMR1 register. Write CC1P='0' and CC1NP='0' in the TIMx_CCER register to validate the polarity (and detect rising edges only).
  2. 2. Configure the timer in reset mode by writing SMS=100 in TIMx_SMCR register. Select TI1 as the input source by writing TS=101 in TIMx_SMCR register.
  3. 3. Start the counter by writing CEN=1 in the TIMx_CR1 register.

The counter starts counting on the internal clock, then behaves normally until TI1 rising edge. When TI1 rises, the counter is cleared and restarts from 0. In the meantime, the trigger flag is set (TIF bit in the TIMx_SR register) and an interrupt request, or a DMA request can be sent if enabled (depending on the TIE and TDE bits in TIMx_DIER register).

The following figure shows this behavior when the auto-reload register TIMx_ARR=0x36. The delay between the rising edge on TI1 and the actual reset of the counter is due to the resynchronization circuit on TI1 input.

Figure 268. Control circuit in reset mode

Timing diagram for Figure 268. Control circuit in reset mode. The diagram shows five waveforms over time. 1. TI1: A signal that is initially high, then goes low, and then has a rising edge. 2. UG: A signal that is initially low, then goes high when TI1 has a rising edge, and then goes low again. 3. Counter clock = ck_cnt = ck_psc: A periodic square wave. 4. Counter register: A sequence of values starting at 30, increasing by 1 up to 36, then jumping to 00, and continuing to 03. 5. TIF: A signal that is initially low, then goes high when the counter reaches 36 (at the same time as the TI1 rising edge), and then goes low again. Vertical dashed lines indicate the timing of the TI1 rising edge and the counter reset.

MS31401V1

Slave mode: Gated mode

The counter can be enabled depending on the level of a selected input.

In the following example, the upcounter counts only when TI1 input is low:

  1. 1. Configure the channel 1 to detect low levels on TI1. Configure the input filter duration (in this example, we do not need any filter, so we keep IC1F=0000). The capture prescaler is not used for triggering, so it does not need to be configured. The CC1S bits select the input capture source only, CC1S=01 in TIMx_CCMR1 register. Write CC1P=1 and CC1NP = '0' in the TIMx_CCER register to validate the polarity (and detect low level only).
  2. 2. Configure the timer in gated mode by writing SMS=101 in TIMx_SMCR register. Select TI1 as the input source by writing TS=101 in TIMx_SMCR register.
  3. 3. Enable the counter by writing CEN=1 in the TIMx_CR1 register (in gated mode, the counter doesn't start if CEN=0, whatever is the trigger input level).

The counter starts counting on the internal clock as long as TI1 is low and stops as soon as TI1 becomes high. The TIF flag in the TIMx_SR register is set both when the counter starts or stops.

The delay between the rising edge on TI1 and the actual stop of the counter is due to the resynchronization circuit on TI1 input.

Figure 269. Control circuit in gated mode Timing diagram for Figure 269. Control circuit in gated mode. The diagram shows five waveforms over time. 1. TI1: A signal that starts high, goes low, then high again, then low again, and finally high. 2. cnt_en: Counter enable signal. It is low while TI1 is high. When TI1 goes low, cnt_en goes high. When TI1 goes high, cnt_en goes low after a short delay. 3. Counter clock = ck_cnt = ck_psc: A periodic square wave. It is active (counting) when cnt_en is high. 4. Counter register: Shows the count values. It starts at 30, increments to 31, 32, 33, then 34. When TI1 goes high, the count stops at 34. When TI1 goes low again, the count resumes at 35, 36, 37, 38. 5. TIF: Timer interrupt flag. It is set (goes high) when the counter starts (when cnt_en goes high) and when it stops (when cnt_en goes low). Arrows from 'Write TIF=0' point to the falling edges of the TIF signal.

The diagram illustrates the timing relationship between the TI1 input, counter enable (cnt_en), counter clock, counter register values, and the TIF flag in gated mode. The TI1 input is high initially, then goes low, then high again, then low again, and finally high. The cnt_en signal is low while TI1 is high. When TI1 goes low, cnt_en goes high. When TI1 goes high, cnt_en goes low after a short delay. The counter clock is a periodic square wave that is active (counting) when cnt_en is high. The counter register shows the count values: 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38. The count starts at 30 and increments to 31, 32, 33, 34. When TI1 goes high, the count stops at 34. When TI1 goes low again, the count resumes at 35, 36, 37, 38. The TIF flag is set (goes high) when the counter starts (when cnt_en goes high) and when it stops (when cnt_en goes low). Arrows from 'Write TIF=0' point to the falling edges of the TIF signal.

It is set (goes high) when the counter starts (when cnt_en goes high) and when it stops (when cnt_en goes low). Arrows from 'Write TIF=0' point to the falling edges of the TIF signal.

Slave mode: Trigger mode

The counter can start in response to an event on a selected input.

In the following example, the upcounter starts in response to a rising edge on TI2 input:

  1. 1. Configure the channel 2 to detect rising edges on TI2. Configure the input filter duration (in this example, we do not need any filter, so we keep IC2F=0000). The capture prescaler is not used for triggering, so it does not need to be configured. The CC2S bits are configured to select the input capture source only, CC2S=01 in TIMx_CCMR1 register. Write CC2P='1' and CC2NP='0' in the TIMx_CCER register to validate the polarity (and detect low level only).
  2. 2. Configure the timer in trigger mode by writing SMS=110 in the TIMx_SMCR register. Select TI2 as the input source by writing TS=110 in the TIMx_SMCR register.

When a rising edge occurs on TI2, the counter starts counting on the internal clock and the TIF flag is set.

The delay between the rising edge on TI2 and the actual start of the counter is due to the resynchronization circuit on TI2 input.

TI2 shows a rising edge. cnt_en goes high at the rising edge of TI2. Counter clock is a periodic square wave. Counter register shows values 34, 35, 36, 37, 38. TIF goes high at the rising edge of TI2. The diagram is labeled MS31403V1.

The figure is a timing diagram illustrating the control circuit in trigger mode. It shows five signals over time:

A vertical dashed line marks the time of the rising edge on TI2. The diagram is labeled MS31403V1 in the bottom right corner.

TIF goes high at the rising edge of TI2. The diagram is labeled MS31403V1.

22.4.19 Slave mode – combined reset + trigger mode (TIM15 only)

In this case, a rising edge of the selected trigger input (TRGI) reinitializes the counter, generates an update of the registers, and starts the counter.

This mode is used for one-pulse mode.

22.4.20 DMA burst mode

The TIMx timers have the capability to generate multiple DMA requests on a single event. The main purpose is to be able to re-program several timer registers multiple times without software overhead, but it can also be used to read several registers in a row, at regular intervals.

The DMA controller destination is unique and must point to the virtual register TIMx_DMAR. On a given timer event, the timer launches a sequence of DMA requests (burst). Each write into the TIMx_DMAR register is actually redirected to one of the timer registers.

The DBL[4:0] bits in the TIMx_DCR register set the DMA burst length. The timer recognizes a burst transfer when a read or a write access is done to the TIMx_DMAR address), i.e. the number of transfers (either in half-words or in bytes).

The DBA[4:0] bits in the TIMx_DCR registers define the DMA base address for DMA transfers (when read/write access are done through the TIMx_DMAR address). DBA is defined as an offset starting from the address of the TIMx_CR1 register.

Example:

00000: TIMx_CR1,

00001: TIMx_CR2,

00010: TIMx_SMCR,

For example, the timer DMA burst feature could be used to update the contents of the CCRx registers (x = 2, 3, 4) on an update event, with the DMA transferring half words into the CCRx registers.

This is done in the following steps:

  1. 1. Configure the corresponding DMA channel as follows:
    • – DMA channel peripheral address is the DMAR register address
    • – DMA channel memory address is the address of the buffer in the RAM containing the data to be transferred by DMA into the CCRx registers.
    • – Number of data to transfer = 3 (See note below).
    • – Circular mode disabled.
  2. 2. Configure the DCR register by configuring the DBA and DBL bit fields as follows:
    DBL = 3 transfers, DBA = 0xE.
  3. 3. Enable the TIMx update DMA request (set the UDE bit in the DIER register).
  4. 4. Enable TIMx
  5. 5. Enable the DMA channel

This example is for the case where every CCRx register is to be updated once. If every CCRx register is to be updated twice for example, the number of data to transfer should be 6. Let's take the example of a buffer in the RAM containing data1, data2, data3, data4, data5 and data6. The data is transferred to the CCRx registers as follows: on the first update DMA request, data1 is transferred to CCR2, data2 is transferred to CCR3, data3 is transferred to CCR4 and on the second update DMA request, data4 is transferred to CCR2, data5 is transferred to CCR3 and data6 is transferred to CCR4.

Note: A null value can be written to the reserved registers.

22.4.21 Timer synchronization (TIM15)

The TIMx timers are linked together internally for timer synchronization or chaining. Refer to Section 21.3.19: Timer synchronization for details.

Note: The clock of the slave peripherals (timer, ADC, ...) receiving the TRGO or the TRGO2 signals must be enabled prior to receive events from the master timer, and the clock frequency (prescaler) must not be changed on-the-fly while triggers are received from the master timer.

22.4.22 Using timer output as trigger for other timers (TIM16/TIM17)

The timers with one channel only do not feature a master mode. However, the OC1 output signal can be used to trigger some other timers (including timers described in other sections of this document). Check the “TIMx internal trigger connection” table of any TIMx_SMCR register on the device to identify which timers can be targeted as slave.

The OC1 signal pulse width must be programmed to be at least 2 clock cycles of the destination timer, to make sure the slave timer will detect the trigger.

For instance, if the destination's timer CK_INT clock is 4 times slower than the source timer, the OC1 pulse width must be 8 clock cycles.

22.4.23 Debug mode

When the microcontroller enters debug mode (Cortex-M4 ® F core halted), the TIMx counter either continues to work normally or stops, depending on DBG_TIMx_STOP configuration bit in DBG module. For more details, refer to Section 33.14.2: Debug support for timers, watchdog, bxCAN and I 2 C .

For safety purposes, when the counter is stopped (DBG_TIMx_STOP = 1), the outputs are disabled (as if the MOE bit was reset). The outputs can either be forced to an inactive state (OSSI bit = 1), or have their control taken over by the GPIO controller (OSSI bit = 0) to force them to Hi-Z.

22.5 TIM15 registers

Refer to Section 2.2 for a list of abbreviations used in register descriptions.

The peripheral registers can be accessed by half-words (16-bit) or words (32-bit).

Bit 0 CEN : Counter enable

0: Counter disabled

1: Counter enabled

Note: External clock and gated mode can work only if the CEN bit has been previously set by software. However trigger mode can set the CEN bit automatically by hardware.

Bit 7 MSM : Master/slave mode

0: No action

1: The effect of an event on the trigger input (TRGI) is delayed to allow a perfect synchronization between the current timer and its slaves (through TRGO). It is useful if we want to synchronize several timers on a single external event.

Bits 6:4 TS[2:0] : Trigger selection

This bit field selects the trigger input to be used to synchronize the counter.

See Table 122: TIMx Internal trigger connection on page 665 for more details on ITRx meaning for each Timer.

Note: These bits must be changed only when they are not used (e.g. when SMS=000) to avoid wrong edge detections at the transition.

Bit 3 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.

Bits 16, 2, 1, 0 SMS[3:0] : Slave mode selection

When external signals are selected the active edge of the trigger signal (TRGI) is linked to the polarity selected on the external input (see Input Control register and Control register description).

0000: Slave mode disabled - if CEN = '1' then the prescaler is clocked directly by the internal clock.

0001: Reserved

0010: Reserved

0011: Reserved

0100: Reset Mode - Rising edge of the selected trigger input (TRGI) reinitializes the counter and generates an update of the registers.

0101: Gated Mode - The counter clock is enabled when the trigger input (TRGI) is high. The counter stops (but is not reset) as soon as the trigger becomes low. Both start and stop of the counter are controlled.

0110: Trigger Mode - The counter starts at a rising edge of the trigger TRGI (but it is not reset). Only the start of the counter is controlled.

0111: External Clock Mode 1 - Rising edges of the selected trigger (TRGI) clock the counter.

1000: Combined reset + trigger mode - Rising edge of the selected trigger input (TRGI) reinitializes the counter, generates an update of the registers and starts the counter.

Other codes: reserved.

Note: The gated mode must not be used if TI1F_ED is selected as the trigger input (TS='100'). Indeed, TI1F_ED outputs 1 pulse for each transition on TI1F, whereas the gated mode checks the level of the trigger signal.

Note: The clock of the slave peripherals (timer, ADC, ...) receiving the TRGO or the TRGO2 signals must be enabled prior to receive events from the master timer, and the clock frequency (prescaler) must not be changed on-the-fly while triggers are received from the master timer.

Bits 16, 6:4 OC1M[3:0] : Output Compare 1 mode

These bits define the behavior of the output reference signal OC1REF from which OC1 and OC1N are derived. OC1REF is active high whereas OC1 and OC1N active level depends on CC1P and CC1NP bits.

0000: Frozen - The comparison between the output compare register TIMx_CCR1 and the counter TIMx_CNT has no effect on the outputs.

0001: Set channel 1 to active level on match. OC1REF signal is forced high when the counter TIMx_CNT matches the capture/compare register 1 (TIMx_CCR1).

0010: Set channel 1 to inactive level on match. OC1REF signal is forced low when the counter TIMx_CNT matches the capture/compare register 1 (TIMx_CCR1).

0011: Toggle - OC1REF toggles when TIMx_CNT=TIMx_CCR1.

0100: Force inactive level - OC1REF is forced low.

0101: Force active level - OC1REF is forced high.

1000: Retriggerable OPM mode 1 - In up-counting mode, the channel is active until a trigger event is detected (on TRGI signal). Then, a comparison is performed as in PWM mode 1 and the channels becomes active again at the next update. In down-counting mode, the channel is inactive until a trigger event is detected (on TRGI signal). Then, a comparison is performed as in PWM mode 1 and the channels becomes inactive again at the next update.

Note: These bits can not be modified as long as LOCK level 3 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register) and CC1S='00' (the channel is configured in output).

In PWM mode, the OCREF level changes only when the result of the comparison changes or when the output compare mode switches from "frozen" mode to "PWM" mode.

On channels that have a complementary output, this bit field is preloaded. If the CCPC bit is set in the TIMx_CR2 register then the OC1M active bits take the new value from the preloaded bits only when a COM event is generated.

The OC1M[3] bit is not contiguous, located in bit 16.

Bit 3 OC1PE : Output Compare 1 preload enable

0: Preload register on TIMx_CCR1 disabled. TIMx_CCR1 can be written at anytime, the new value is taken in account immediately.

1: Preload register on TIMx_CCR1 enabled. Read/Write operations access the preload register. TIMx_CCR1 preload value is loaded in the active register at each update event.

Note: These bits can not be modified as long as LOCK level 3 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register) and CC1S='00' (the channel is configured in output).

The PWM mode can be used without validating the preload register only in one pulse mode (OPM bit set in TIMx_CR1 register). Else the behavior is not guaranteed.

Bit 2 OC1FE : Output Compare 1 fast enable

This bit decreases the latency between a trigger event and a transition on the timer output. It must be used in one-pulse mode (OPM bit set in TIMx_CR1 register), to have the output pulse starting as soon as possible after the starting trigger.

0: CC1 behaves normally depending on counter and CCR1 values even when the trigger is ON. The minimum delay to activate CC1 output when an edge occurs on the trigger input is 5 clock cycles.

1: An active edge on the trigger input acts like a compare match on CC1 output. Then, OC is set to the compare level independently of the result of the comparison. Delay to sample the trigger input and to activate CC1 output is reduced to 3 clock cycles. OCFE acts only if the channel is configured in PWM1 or PWM2 mode.

Bits 1:0 CC1S[1:0] : Capture/Compare 1 selection

This bit-field defines the direction of the channel (input/output) as well as the used input.

Bit 3 CC1NP : Capture/Compare 1 complementary output polarity

CC1 channel configured as output:

0: OC1N active high

1: OC1N active low

CC1 channel configured as input:

This bit is used in conjunction with CC1P to define the polarity of TI1FP1 and TI2FP1. Refer to CC1P description.

Note: This bit is not writable as soon as LOCK level 2 or 3 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register) and CC1S="00" (the channel is configured in output).

On channels that have a complementary output, this bit is preloaded. If the CCPC bit is set in the TIMx_CR2 register then the CC1NP active bit takes the new value from the preloaded bit only when a Commutation event is generated.

Bit 2 CC1NE : Capture/Compare 1 complementary output enable

0: Off - OC1N is not active. OC1N level is then function of MOE, OSSI, OSSR, OIS1, OIS1N and CC1E bits.

1: On - OC1N signal is output on the corresponding output pin depending on MOE, OSSI, OSSR, OIS1, OIS1N and CC1E bits.

Bit 1 CC1P : Capture/Compare 1 output polarity

0: OC1 active high (output mode) / Edge sensitivity selection (input mode, see below)

1: OC1 active low (output mode) / Edge sensitivity selection (input mode, see below)

When CC1 channel is configured as input , both CC1NP/CC1P bits select the active polarity of TI1FP1 and TI2FP1 for trigger or capture operations.

CC1NP=0, CC1P=0: non-inverted/rising edge. The circuit is sensitive to TIxFP1 rising edge (capture or trigger operations in reset, external clock or trigger mode), TIxFP1 is not inverted (trigger operation in gated mode or encoder mode).

CC1NP=0, CC1P=1: inverted/falling edge. The circuit is sensitive to TIxFP1 falling edge (capture or trigger operations in reset, external clock or trigger mode), TIxFP1 is inverted (trigger operation in gated mode or encoder mode).

CC1NP=1, CC1P=1: non-inverted/both edges/ The circuit is sensitive to both TIxFP1 rising and falling edges (capture or trigger operations in reset, external clock or trigger mode), TIxFP1 is not inverted (trigger operation in gated mode). This configuration must not be used in encoder mode.

CC1NP=1, CC1P=0: this configuration is reserved, it must not be used.

Note: This bit is not writable as soon as LOCK level 2 or 3 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

On channels that have a complementary output, this bit is preloaded. If the CCPC bit is set in the TIMx_CR2 register then the CC1P active bit takes the new value from the preloaded bit only when a Commutation event is generated.

Bit 0 CC1E : Capture/Compare 1 output enable

0: Capture mode disabled / OC1 is not active (see below)

These bits allow the user to set-up the update rate of the compare registers (i.e. periodic transfers from preload to active registers) when preload registers are enable, as well as the update interrupt generation rate, if this interrupt is enable.

Each time the REP_CNT related downcounter reaches zero, an update event is generated and it restarts counting from REP value. As REP_CNT is reloaded with REP value only at the repetition update event U_RC, any write to the TIMx_RCR register is not taken in account until the next repetition update event.

Note: As the AOE, BKP, BKE, OSSI, OSSR and DTG[7:0] bits may be write-locked depending on the LOCK configuration, it may be necessary to configure all of them during the first write access to the TIMx_BDTR register.

Bits 31:20 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.

Bits 19:16 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.

Bit 15 MOE : Main output enable

This bit is cleared asynchronously by hardware as soon as the break input is active. It is set by software or automatically depending on the AOE bit. It is acting only on the channels which are configured in output.

0: OC and OCN outputs are disabled or forced to idle state depending on the OSSI bit.

1: OC and OCN outputs are enabled if their respective enable bits are set (CCxE, CCxNE in TIMx_CCER register)

See OC/OCN enable description for more details ( Section 22.5.9: TIM15 capture/compare enable register (TIM15_CCER) on page 673 ).

Bit 14 AOE: Automatic output enable

0: MOE can be set only by software

1: MOE can be set by software or automatically at the next update event (if the break input is not active)

Note: This bit can not be modified as long as LOCK level 1 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

Bit 13 BKP: Break polarity

0: Break input BRK is active low

1: Break input BRK is active high

Note: This bit can not be modified as long as LOCK level 1 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

Any write operation to this bit takes a delay of 1 APB clock cycle to become effective.

Bit 12 BKE: Break enable

0: Break inputs (BRK and CCS clock failure event) disabled

1: Break inputs (BRK and CCS clock failure event) enabled

This bit cannot be modified when LOCK level 1 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

Note: Any write operation to this bit takes a delay of 1 APB clock cycle to become effective.

Bit 11 OSSR: Off-state selection for Run mode

This bit is used when MOE=1 on channels that have a complementary output which are configured as outputs. OSSR is not implemented if no complementary output is implemented in the timer.

See OC/OCN enable description for more details ( Section 22.5.9: TIM15 capture/compare enable register (TIM15_CCER) on page 673 ).

0: When inactive, OC/OCN outputs are disabled (the timer releases the output control which is taken over by the AFIO logic, which forces a Hi-Z state)

1: When inactive, OC/OCN outputs are enabled with their inactive level as soon as CCxE=1 or CCxNE=1 (the output is still controlled by the timer).

Note: This bit can not be modified as soon as the LOCK level 2 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

Bit 10 OSSI: Off-state selection for Idle mode

This bit is used when MOE=0 on channels configured as outputs.

See OC/OCN enable description for more details ( Section 22.5.9: TIM15 capture/compare enable register (TIM15_CCER) on page 673 ).

0: When inactive, OC/OCN outputs are disabled (OC/OCN enable output signal=0)

1: When inactive, OC/OCN outputs are forced first with their idle level as soon as CCxE=1 or CCxNE=1. OC/OCN enable output signal=1)

Note: This bit can not be modified as soon as the LOCK level 2 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

Bits 9:8 LOCK[1:0] : Lock configuration

These bits offer a write protection against software errors.

Note: The LOCK bits can be written only once after the reset. Once the TIMx_BDTR register has been written, their content is frozen until the next reset.

Bits 7:0 DTG[7:0] : Dead-time generator setup

This bit-field defines the duration of the dead-time inserted between the complementary outputs. DT correspond to this duration.

DTG[7:5] = 0xx => DT = DTG[7:0] × \( t_{dtg} \) with \( t_{dtg} = t_{DTS} \)
DTG[7:5] = 10x => DT = (64+DTG[5:0]) × \( t_{dtg} \) with \( t_{dtg} = 2 imes t_{DTS} \)
DTG[7:5] = 110 => DT = (32+DTG[4:0]) × \( t_{dtg} \) with \( t_{dtg} = 8 imes t_{DTS} \)
DTG[7:5] = 111 => DT = (32+DTG[4:0]) × \( t_{dtg} \) with \( t_{dtg} = 16 imes t_{DTS} \)

Example if \( t_{DTS} = 125 \) ns (8 MHz), dead-time possible values are:
0 to 15875 ns by 125 ns steps,
16 µs to 31750 ns by 250 ns steps,
32 µs to 63 µs by 1 µs steps,
64 µs to 126 µs by 2 µs steps

Note: This bit-field can not be modified as long as LOCK level 1, 2 or 3 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

This flag is set by hardware. It is cleared by software (input capture or output compare mode) or by reading the TIMx_CCR1 register (input capture mode only).

0: No compare match / No input capture occurred

1: A compare match or an input capture occurred

If channel CC1 is configured as output: this flag is set when the content of the counter TIMx_CNT matches the content of the TIMx_CCR1 register. When the content of TIMx_CCR1 is greater than the content of TIMx_ARR, the CC1IF bit goes high on the counter overflow (in up-counting and up/down-counting modes) or underflow (in down-counting mode). There are 3 possible options for flag setting in center-aligned mode, refer to the CMS bits in the TIMx_CR1 register for the full description.

If channel CC1 is configured as input: this bit is set when counter value has been captured in TIMx_CCR1 register (an edge has been detected on IC1, as per the edge sensitivity defined with the CC1P and CC1NP bits setting, in TIMx_CCER).

Bit 0 UIF : Update interrupt flag

This bit is set by hardware on an update event. It is cleared by software.

0: No update occurred.

If channel CC1 is configured as output:

CC1IF flag is set, Corresponding interrupt or DMA request is sent if enabled.

If channel CC1 is configured as input:

The current value of the counter is captured in TIMx_CCR1 register. The CC1IF flag is set, the corresponding interrupt or DMA request is sent if enabled. The CC1OF flag is set if the CC1IF flag was already high.

Bit 0 UG : Update generation

This bit can be set by software, it is automatically cleared by hardware.

0: No action.

1: Reinitialize the counter and generates an update of the registers. Note that the prescaler counter is cleared too (anyway the prescaler ratio is not affected).

This bit-field defines the ratio of the prescaler acting on CC1 input (IC1).
The prescaler is reset as soon as CC1E='0' (TIMx_CCER register).
00: no prescaler, capture is done each time an edge is detected on the capture input.

Bit 7 OC1CE : Output Compare 1 clear enable

0: OC1Ref is not affected by the OCREF_CLR input.

1: OC1Ref is cleared as soon as a High level is detected on OCREF_CLR input.

Bits 16, 6:4 OC1M[3:0] : Output Compare 1 mode

These bits define the behavior of the output reference signal OC1REF from which OC1 and OC1N are derived. OC1REF is active high whereas OC1 and OC1N active level depends on CC1P and CC1NP bits.

0000: Frozen - The comparison between the output compare register TIMx_CCR1 and the counter TIMx_CNT has no effect on the outputs.

0001: Set channel 1 to active level on match. OC1REF signal is forced high when the counter TIMx_CNT matches the capture/compare register 1 (TIMx_CCR1).

0010: Set channel 1 to inactive level on match. OC1REF signal is forced low when the counter TIMx_CNT matches the capture/compare register 1 (TIMx_CCR1).

0011: Toggle - OC1REF toggles when TIMx_CNT=TIMx_CCR1.

0100: Force inactive level - OC1REF is forced low.

0101: Force active level - OC1REF is forced high.

0110: PWM mode 1 - Channel 1 is active as long as TIMx_CNT<TIMx_CCR1 else inactive.

0111: PWM mode 2 - Channel 1 is inactive as long as TIMx_CNT<TIMx_CCR1 else active.

All other values: Reserved

Note: These bits can not be modified as long as LOCK level 3 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register) and CC1S='00' (the channel is configured in output).

In PWM mode 1 or 2, the OCREF level changes only when the result of the comparison changes or when the output compare mode switches from "frozen" mode to "PWM" mode.

The OC1M[3] bit is not contiguous, located in bit 16.

Bit 3 OC1PE : Output Compare 1 preload enable

0: Preload register on TIMx_CCR1 disabled. TIMx_CCR1 can be written at anytime, the new value is taken in account immediately.

1: Preload register on TIMx_CCR1 enabled. Read/Write operations access the preload register. TIMx_CCR1 preload value is loaded in the active register at each update event.

Note: These bits can not be modified as long as LOCK level 3 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register) and CC1S='00' (the channel is configured in output).

The PWM mode can be used without validating the preload register only in one pulse mode (OPM bit set in TIMx_CR1 register). Else the behavior is not guaranteed.

Bit 2 OC1FE : Output Compare 1 fast enable

This bit decreases the latency between a trigger event and a transition on the timer output. It must be used in one-pulse mode (OPM bit set in TIMx_CR1 register), to have the output pulse starting as soon as possible after the starting trigger.

0: CC1 behaves normally depending on counter and CCR1 values even when the trigger is ON. The minimum delay to activate CC1 output when an edge occurs on the trigger input is 5 clock cycles.

1: An active edge on the trigger input acts like a compare match on CC1 output. Then, OC is set to the compare level independently of the result of the comparison. Delay to sample the trigger input and to activate CC1 output is reduced to 3 clock cycles. OC1FE acts only if the channel is configured in PWM1 or PWM2 mode.

Bits 1:0 CC1S[1:0] : Capture/Compare 1 selection

This bit-field defines the direction of the channel (input/output) as well as the used input.

00: CC1 channel is configured as output

Bit 3 CC1NP : Capture/Compare 1 complementary output polarity

CC1 channel configured as output:

0: OC1N active high

1: OC1N active low

CC1 channel configured as input:

This bit is used in conjunction with CC1P to define the polarity of TI1FP1 and TI2FP1. Refer to the description of CC1P.

Note: This bit is not writable as soon as LOCK level 2 or 3 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register) and CC1S="00" (the channel is configured in output).

On channels that have a complementary output, this bit is preloaded. If the CCPC bit is set in the TIMx_CR2 register then the CC1NP active bit takes the new value from the preloaded bit only when a commutation event is generated.

Bit 2 CC1NE : Capture/Compare 1 complementary output enable

0: Off - OC1N is not active. OC1N level is then function of MOE, OSSI, OSSR, OIS1, OIS1N and CC1E bits.

1: On - OC1N signal is output on the corresponding output pin depending on MOE, OSSI, OSSR, OIS1, OIS1N and CC1E bits.

Bit 1 CC1P : Capture/Compare 1 output polarity

0: OC1 active high (output mode) / Edge sensitivity selection (input mode, see below)

1: OC1 active low (output mode) / Edge sensitivity selection (input mode, see below)

When CC1 channel is configured as input , both CC1NP/CC1P bits select the active polarity of TI1FP1 and TI2FP1 for trigger or capture operations.

CC1NP=0, CC1P=0: non-inverted/rising edge. The circuit is sensitive to TIxFP1 rising edge (capture or trigger operations in reset, external clock or trigger mode), TIxFP1 is not inverted (trigger operation in gated mode or encoder mode).

CC1NP=0, CC1P=1: inverted/falling edge. The circuit is sensitive to TIxFP1 falling edge (capture or trigger operations in reset, external clock or trigger mode), TIxFP1 is inverted (trigger operation in gated mode or encoder mode).

CC1NP=1, CC1P=1: non-inverted/both edges/ The circuit is sensitive to both TIxFP1 rising and falling edges (capture or trigger operations in reset, external clock or trigger mode), TIxFP1 is not inverted (trigger operation in gated mode). This configuration must not be used in encoder mode.

CC1NP=1, CC1P=0: this configuration is reserved, it must not be used.

Note: This bit is not writable as soon as LOCK level 2 or 3 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

On channels that have a complementary output, this bit is preloaded. If the CCPC bit is set in the TIMx_CR2 register then the CC1P active bit takes the new value from the preloaded bit only when a Commutation event is generated.

Bit 0 CC1E : Capture/Compare 1 output enable

0: Capture mode disabled / OC1 is not active (see below)

1: Capture mode enabled / OC1 signal is output on the corresponding output pin

When CC1 channel is configured as output , the OC1 level depends on MOE, OSSI, OSSR, OIS1, OIS1N and CC1NE bits, regardless of the CC1E bits state. Refer to Table 125 for details.

These bits allow the user to set-up the update rate of the compare registers (i.e. periodic transfers from preload to active registers) when preload registers are enable, as well as the update interrupt generation rate, if this interrupt is enable.

Each time the REP_CNT related downcounter reaches zero, an update event is generated and it restarts counting from REP value. As REP_CNT is reloaded with REP value only at the repetition update event U_RC, any write to the TIMx_RCR register is not taken in account until the next repetition update event.

Note: This bit can not be modified as long as LOCK level 1 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

Bit 13 BKP: Break polarity

0: Break input BRK is active low

1: Break input BRK is active high

Note: This bit can not be modified as long as LOCK level 1 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

Any write operation to this bit takes a delay of 1 APB clock cycle to become effective.

Bit 12 BKE: Break enable

0: Break inputs (BRK and CCS clock failure event) disabled

1: Break inputs (BRK and CCS clock failure event) enabled

Note: This bit cannot be modified when LOCK level 1 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

Any write operation to this bit takes a delay of 1 APB clock cycle to become effective.

Bit 11 OSSR : Off-state selection for Run mode

This bit is used when MOE=1 on channels that have a complementary output which are configured as outputs. OSSR is not implemented if no complementary output is implemented in the timer.

See OC/OCN enable description for more details ( Section 22.6.8: TIMx capture/compare enable register (TIMx_CCER)(x = 16 to 17) on page 692 ).

0: When inactive, OC/OCN outputs are disabled (the timer releases the output control which is taken over by the AFIO logic, which forces a Hi-Z state)

1: When inactive, OC/OCN outputs are enabled with their inactive level as soon as CCxE=1 or CCxNE=1 (the output is still controlled by the timer).

Note: This bit can not be modified as soon as the LOCK level 2 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

Bit 10 OSSI : Off-state selection for Idle mode

This bit is used when MOE=0 on channels configured as outputs.

See OC/OCN enable description for more details ( Section 22.6.8: TIMx capture/compare enable register (TIMx_CCER)(x = 16 to 17) on page 692 ).

0: When inactive, OC/OCN outputs are disabled (OC/OCN enable output signal=0)

1: When inactive, OC/OCN outputs are forced first with their idle level as soon as CCxE=1 or CCxNE=1. OC/OCN enable output signal=1)

Note: This bit can not be modified as soon as the LOCK level 2 has been programmed (LOCK bits in TIMx_BDTR register).

Bits 9:8 LOCK[1:0] : Lock configuration

These bits offer a write protection against software errors.

00: LOCK OFF - No bit is write protected

01: LOCK Level 1 = DTG bits in TIMx_BDTR register, OISx and OISxN bits in TIMx_CR2 register and BKE/BKP/AOE bits in TIMx_BDTR register can no longer be written.

10: LOCK Level 2 = LOCK Level 1 + CC Polarity bits (CCxP/CCxNP bits in TIMx_CCER register, as long as the related channel is configured in output through the CCxS bits) as well as OSSR and OSSI bits can no longer be written.

11: LOCK Level 3 = LOCK Level 2 + CC Control bits (OCxM and OCxPE bits in TIMx_CCMRx registers, as long as the related channel is configured in output through the CCxS bits) can no longer be written.

Note: The LOCK bits can be written only once after the reset. Once the TIMx_BDTR register has been written, their content is frozen until the next reset.

Bits 7:0 DTG[7:0] : Dead-time generator setup

This bit-field defines the duration of the dead-time inserted between the complementary outputs. DT correspond to this duration.

DTG[7:5] = 0xx => DT = DTG[7:0] x \( t_{dtg} \) with \( t_{dtg} = t_{DTS} \)

DTG[7:5] = 10x => DT = (64 + DTG[5:0]) x \( t_{dtg} \) with \( t_{dtg} = 2 \times t_{DTS} \)

DTG[7:5] = 110 => DT = (32 + DTG[4:0]) x \( t_{dtg} \) with \( t_{dtg} = 8 \times t_{DTS} \)

DTG[7:5] = 111 => DT = (32 + DTG[4:0]) x \( t_{dtg} \) with \( t_{dtg} = 16 \times t_{DTS} \)

Example if \( t_{DTS} = 125 \) ns (8 MHz), dead-time possible values are:

0 to 15875 ns by 125 ns steps,

16 µs to 31750 ns by 250 ns steps,

00000: TIMx_CR1,

00001: TIMx_CR2,

00010: TIMx_SMCR,

...

Example: Let us consider the following transfer: DBL = 7 transfers and DBA = TIMx_CR1. In this case the transfer is done to/from 7 registers starting from the TIMx_CR1 address.

Bits 15:0 DMAB[15:0] : DMA register for burst accesses

A read or write operation to the DMAR register accesses the register located at the address
\( (\text{TIMx\_CR1 address}) + (\text{DBA} + \text{DMA index}) \times 4 \)

where TIMx_CR1 address is the address of the control register 1, DBA is the DMA base address configured in TIMx_DCR register, DMA index is automatically controlled by the DMA transfer, and ranges from 0 to DBL (DBL configured in TIMx_DCR).
