30. Advanced-control timers (TIM1)

In this section, “TIMx” should be understood as “TIM1” since there is only one instance of this type of timer for the products to which this reference manual applies.

30.1 TIM1 introduction

The advanced-control timer (TIM1) consists of a 16-bit autoreload counter driven by a programmable prescaler.

It 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 advanced-control (TIM1) and general-purpose (TIMy) timers are completely independent, and do not share any resources. They can be synchronized together as described in Section 30.3.31: Timer synchronization .

30.3.3 Time-base unit

The main block of the programmable advanced-control timer is a 16-bit counter with its related autoreload register. The counter can count up, down or both up and down. The counter clock can be divided by a prescaler.

The counter, the autoreload register and the prescaler register can be written or read by software, even when the counter is running.

The time-base unit includes:

The autoreload register is preloaded. Writing to or reading from the autoreload 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 autoreload preload enable bit (ARPE) in TIMx_CR1 register. The update event is sent when the counter reaches the overflow (or underflow when downcounting) 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 tim_cnt_ck, 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: The counter starts counting 1 clock cycle after setting the CEN bit in the TIMx_CR1 register.

Prescaler description

The prescaler divides the counter clock frequency by any factor from 1 to 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 159 and Figure 160 give some examples of the counter behavior when the prescaler ratio is changed on the fly.

Figure 159. Counter timing diagram with prescaler division change from 1 to 2

Figure 159: Counter timing diagram with prescaler division change from 1 to 2. The diagram shows the relationship between the prescaler clock (tim_psc_ck), counter enable (CEN), counter clock (tim_cnt_ck), counter register values, update event (UEV), prescaler control register, prescaler buffer, and prescaler counter over time.

The timing diagram illustrates the behavior of the counter and prescaler when the prescaler division ratio is changed from 1 to 2. The signals shown are:

The diagram shows the relationship between the prescaler clock (tim_psc_ck), counter enable (CEN), counter clock (tim_cnt_ck), counter register values, update event (UEV), prescaler control register, prescaler buffer, and prescaler counter over time.

The diagram shows the relationship between tim_psc_ck, CEN, tim_cnt_ck, Counter register, Update event (UEV), Prescaler control register, Prescaler buffer, and Prescaler counter over time. The counter register counts from F7 to FC, then overflows to 00. The prescaler control register is changed from 0 to 3. The prescaler buffer and prescaler counter are updated to 3. The counter register then counts from 00 to 01. The prescaler counter counts from 0 to 3, then overflows to 0. The update event (UEV) is generated when the counter register overflows. The prescaler control register is written with a new value in TIMx_PSC.

The timing diagram illustrates the operation of an advanced-control timer (TIM1) counter and prescaler. The signals shown are:

The diagram shows that the prescaler division change from 1 to 4 occurs when the prescaler control register is updated from 0 to 3. The new value is latched in the prescaler buffer at the next update event (UEV). The counter register continues to count from 00 to 01 after the change. The prescaler counter counts from 0 to 3 (division by 4) and then overflows to 0. The update event (UEV) is generated when the counter register overflows. The prescaler control register is written with a new value in TIMx_PSC.

The diagram shows the relationship between tim_psc_ck, CEN, tim_cnt_ck, Counter register, Update event (UEV), Prescaler control register, Prescaler buffer, and Prescaler counter over time. The counter register counts from F7 to FC, then overflows to 00. The prescaler control register is changed from 0 to 3. The prescaler buffer and prescaler counter are updated to 3. The counter register then counts from 00 to 01. The prescaler counter counts from 0 to 3, then overflows to 0. The update event (UEV) is generated when the counter register overflows. The prescaler control register is written with a new value in TIMx_PSC.

30.3.4 Counter modes

Upcounting mode

In upcounting mode, the counter counts from 0 to the autoreload 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) + 1. 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.

Upon reaching 36 , it overflows to 00 , then continues with 01 , 02 , 03 , 04 , 05 , 06 , and 07 . The Counter overflow , Update event (UEV) , and Update interrupt flag (UIF) signals all pulse when the counter overflows from 36 to 00 . The Auto-reload preload register initially contains FF . A note indicates "Write a new value in TIMx_ARR", and the register is shown changing to the value 36 . The diagram is labeled MSV62303V1.

The auto-reload preload register is updated with the value 36, which is then copied to the shadow register.

The timing diagram shows the following signals and registers over time:

The diagram illustrates the counter counting from F0 to F5, then overflowing to 00, and the subsequent update event and flag setting. The auto-reload preload register is updated with the value 36, which is then copied to the shadow register.

Downcounting mode

In downcounting mode, the counter counts from the autoreload value (content of the TIMx_ARR register) down to 0, then restarts from the autoreload value and generates a counter underflow event.

If the repetition counter is used, the update event (UEV) is generated after downcounting is repeated for the number of times programmed in the repetition counter register (TIMx_RCR) + 1. Else the update event is generated at each counter underflow.

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 update event can be disabled by software by setting the UDIS bit in 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 UDIS bit has been written to 0. However, the counter restarts from the current autoreload value, whereas the counter of the prescaler restarts from 0 (but the prescale rate doesn't 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.

Timing diagram showing tim_psc_ck, CEN, tim_cnt_ck, Counter register values, Counter underflow (cnt_udf), Update event (UEV), and Update interrupt flag (UIF) over time.

The timing diagram illustrates the operation of a timer counter. The top signal, tim_psc_ck , is a periodic square wave representing the prescaler clock. Below it, CEN (Counter Enable) is shown as a high-level signal. The tim_cnt_ck signal is a square wave that is active only when CEN is high. The Counter register displays a sequence of hexadecimal values: 05, 04, 03, 02, 01, 00, 36, 35, 34, 33, 32, 31, 30, and 2F. The counter decrements from 05 down to 00, then reloads to 36 (0x36) and continues to decrement. The Counter underflow (cnt_udf) signal is a pulse that goes high when the counter reaches 00 and reloads to 36. The Update event (UEV) signal is a pulse that goes high at the same time as the underflow. The Update interrupt flag (UIF) signal is a pulse that goes high at the same time as the underflow and update event. Vertical dashed lines indicate the timing relationships between the counter values and the signals. The diagram is labeled MSV62305V1 in the bottom right corner.

Center-aligned mode (up/down counting)

In center-aligned mode, the counter counts from 0 to the autoreload value (content of the TIMx_ARR register) – 1, generates a counter overflow event, then counts from the

autoreload value down to 1 and generates a counter underflow event. Then it restarts counting from 0.

Center-aligned mode is active when the CMS bits in TIMx_CR1 register are not equal to 00. The Output compare interrupt flag of channels configured in output is set when: the counter counts down (Center aligned mode 1, CMS = 01), the counter counts up (Center aligned mode 2, CMS = 10) the counter counts up and down (Center aligned mode 3, CMS = 11).

In this mode, the DIR direction bit in the TIMx_CR1 register cannot be written. It is updated by hardware and gives the current direction of the counter.

The update event can be generated at each counter overflow and at each counter underflow or by setting the UG bit in the TIMx_EGR register (by software or by using the slave mode controller) also generates an update event. In this case, the counter restarts counting from 0, as well as the counter of the prescaler.

The UEV update 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 UDIS bit has been written to 0. However, the counter continues counting up and down, based on the current autoreload value.

In addition, if the URS bit (update request selection) in TIMx_CR1 register is set, setting the UG bit generates an UEV update event 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.

The update event (UEV) is generated when the counter overflows from FC to 36. The update interrupt flag (UIF) is set when the counter overflows. The auto-reload preload register is updated when a new value is written in TIMx_ARR. The auto-reload active register is updated when the counter overflows.

The auto-reload preload register is updated when a new value is written in TIMx_ARR. The auto-reload active register is updated when the counter overflows.

30.3.5 Repetition counter

Section 30.3.3: Time-base unit describes how the update event (UEV) is generated with respect to the counter overflows/underflows. 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 autoreload register, TIMx_PSC prescaler register, but also TIMx_CCRx capture/compare registers in compare mode) every N+1 counter overflows or underflows, where N is the value in the TIMx_RCR repetition counter register.

The repetition counter is decremented:

    • • At each counter overflow in upcounting mode,
    • • At each counter underflow in downcounting mode,
    • • At each counter overflow and at each counter underflow in center-aligned mode.
  1. Although this limits the maximum number of repetition to 32768 PWM cycles, it makes it possible to update the duty cycle twice per PWM period. When refreshing compare registers only once per PWM period in center-aligned mode, maximum resolution is \( 2 \times T_{ck} \) , due to the symmetry of the pattern.

The repetition counter is an autoreload type; the repetition rate is maintained as defined by the TIMx_RCR register value (refer to Figure 178 ). 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.

In Center aligned mode, for odd values of RCR, the update event occurs either on the overflow or on the underflow depending on when the RCR register was written and when the counter was launched: if the RCR was written before launching the counter, the UEV occurs on the underflow. If the RCR was written after launching the counter, the UEV occurs on the overflow.

For example, for RCR = 3, the UEV is generated each 4th overflow or underflow event depending on when the RCR was written.

Figure 178. Update rate examples depending on mode and TIMx_RCR register settings

Timing diagrams showing update rates for Counter-aligned and Edge-aligned modes with various TIMx_RCR settings. The diagrams show the counter (TIMx_CNT) and the resulting Update Event (UEV) frequency for different RCR values (0, 1, 2, 3, and 3 with re-synchronization).

The figure displays timing diagrams for update rates in two modes: Counter-aligned and Edge-aligned (Upcounting and Downcounting). The rows represent different TIMx_RCR settings: 0, 1, 2, 3, and 3 with re-synchronization. The Counter (TIMx_CNT) is shown as a sawtooth wave. The Update Event (UEV) is indicated by arrows. In Counter-aligned mode with RCR=3 and re-synchronization, the UEV occurs on the underflow (indicated by a dashed line and 'by SW' label). In Edge-aligned modes, the UEV occurs on every overflow (Upcounting) or underflow (Downcounting) when RCR=0, and on every (RCR+1)th overflow/underflow for other RCR values.

30.3.6 External trigger input

The timer features an external trigger input tim_etr_in. It can be used as:

Figure 179 below describes the tim_etr_in input conditioning. The input polarity is defined with the ETP bit in TIMxSMCR register. The trigger can be prescaled with the divider programmed by the ETPS[1:0] bitfield and digitally filtered with the ETF[3:0] bitfield. The resulting signal (tim_etr) is available for three purposes: as an external clock, to condition

the output (typically to reset a PWM output for a current limitation), and as a trigger for the Slave mode controller.

Figure 179. External trigger input block

Figure 179. External trigger input block diagram. The diagram shows the internal logic for the external trigger input (tim_etr_in). It starts with TIMx_AF1[17:14] controlling a multiplexer. The multiplexer selects between TIM_ETR (tim_etr0) and tim_etr[15:1] (labeled (1)). The output of the multiplexer is tim_etr_in. This signal is then split: one path goes through an inverter to a second multiplexer (labeled 0 and 1), which is controlled by ETP (TIMx_SMCR). The output of this second multiplexer is tim_etrp. This signal is then passed through a Divider (/1, /2, /4, /8) controlled by ETPS[1:0] (TIMx_SMCR). The output of the divider is f_DTS. This signal is then passed through a Filter downcounter controlled by ETF[3:0] (TIMx_SMCR). The output of the filter is tim_etrfl. This signal is then sent to the Output mode controller, the CK_PSC circuitry, and the Slave mode controller. The diagram is labeled MSv62316V2.

This signal is then sent to the Output mode controller, the CK_PSC circuitry, and the Slave mode controller. The diagram is labeled MSv62316V2.

The tim_etr_in input comes from multiple sources: input pins (default configuration), or internal sources. The selection is done with the ETRSEL[3:0] bitfield in the TIMx_AF1 register.

Refer to Section 30.3.2: TIM1 pins and internal signals for the list of sources connected to the etr_in input in the product.

30.3.7 Clock selection

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

Internal clock source ( tim_ker_ck )

If the slave mode controller is disabled ( SMS = 000 ), then the CEN , DIR (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 tim_ker_ck .

Figure 180 shows the behavior of the control circuit and the upcounter in normal mode, without prescaler.

Figure 180. Control circuit in normal mode, internal clock divided by 1

Timing diagram for Figure 180 showing signals: tim_ker_ck, CEN, UG, counter initialization (internal), tim_cnt_ck, tim_psc_ck, and Counter register values (31 to 07).

The diagram shows the timing of signals in normal mode with internal clock divided by 1. The top signal, tim_ker_ck , is a continuous square wave. Below it, CEN (Counter Enable) is a high-level signal. UG (Update Generation) is a pulse that goes high when counter initialization (internal) is asserted. The tim_cnt_ck, tim_psc_ck signal is a square wave that starts when CEN goes high. The Counter register values are shown as a sequence of numbers: 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 00, 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06, 07. Vertical dashed lines indicate the relationship between the clock edges and the counter value changes. The identifier MSv62317V2 is in the bottom right corner.

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 181. tim_ti2 external clock connection example

Block diagram for Figure 181 showing the connection of TIM_CH2 to the external clock source mode 1 via a filter and edge detector, controlled by TIMx_TISEL, TIMx_CCMR1, and TIMx_SMCR registers.

The diagram illustrates the connection of TIM_CH2 to the external clock source mode 1. The input tim_ti2_in0 and tim_ti2_in[15:1] are connected to a multiplexer controlled by TIMx_TISEL (TI2SEL[3:0]). The output of the multiplexer, tim_ti2 , passes through a Filter (controlled by ICF[3:0] in TIMx_CCMR1 ) and an Edge detector (controlled by CC2P in TIMx_CCER ). The edge detector outputs tim_ti2f_rising and tim_ti2f_falling signals. These signals are connected to a multiplexer controlled by TIMx_SMCR (TS[4:0]). The multiplexer selects between tim_trgi (from tim_itrx , tim_ti1f_ed , tim_ti1fp2 , tim_ti2fp2 , or etrf ) and tim_etr (from tim_etr ). The selected signal is then connected to the tim_psc_ck output. The tim_psc_ck output is also controlled by ECE and SMS[2:0] in TIMx_SMCR . The identifier MSv62318V3 is in the bottom right corner.

Block diagram for Figure 181 showing the connection of TIM_CH2 to the external clock source mode 1 via a filter and edge detector, controlled by TIMx_TISEL, TIMx_CCMR1, and TIMx_SMCR registers.

1. Codes ranging from 01000 to 11111 are reserved.

For example, to configure the upcounter to count in response to a rising edge on the tim_ti2 input, use the following procedure:

  1. 1. Configure channel 2 to detect rising edges on the tim_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 and CC2NP = 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 tim_ti2 as the trigger input source by writing TS = 00110 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, it is not necessary to configure it.

When a rising edge occurs on tim_ti2, the counter counts once and the TIF flag is set.

The delay between the rising edge on tim_ti2 and the actual clock of the counter is due to the resynchronization circuit on tim_ti2 input.

External clock source mode 2

This mode is selected by writing ECE = 1 in the TIMx_SMCR register.

The counter counts at each rising or falling edge on the external trigger input tim_etr_in.

The Figure 183 gives an overview of the external trigger input block.

External trigger input block diagram showing the signal flow from TIM_ETR and tim_etr[15:1] through a multiplexer, filter downcounter, and divider to the encoder mode and external clock modes. The diagram includes control signals like TIMx_AF1[17:14], ETP, ETPS[1:0], ETF[3:0], ECE, and SMS[2:0] from the TIMx_SMCR register. The output is tim_psc_ck.

The diagram illustrates the external trigger input block for TIM1. It shows the following components and signal flow:

The diagram includes control signals like TIMx_AF1[17:14], ETP, ETPS[1:0], ETF[3:0], ECE, and SMS[2:0] from the TIMx_SMCR register. The output is tim_psc_ck.
  1. 1. Refer to Section 30.3.2: TIM1 pins and internal signals .

For example, to configure the upcounter to count each 2 rising edges on tim_etr_in, use the following procedure:

  1. 1. As no filter is needed in this example, write ETF[3:0] = 0000 in the TIMx_SMCR register.
  2. 2. Set the prescaler by writing ETPS[1:0] = 01 in the TIMx_SMCR register
  3. 3. Select rising edge detection on the tim_etr_in input by writing ETP = 0 in the TIMx_SMCR register
  4. 4. Enable external clock mode 2 by writing ECE = 1 in the TIMx_SMCR register.
  5. 5. Enable the counter by writing CEN = 1 in the TIMx_CR1 register.

The counter counts once each 2 tim_etr_in rising edges.

The delay between the rising edge on tim_etr_in and the actual clock of the counter is due to the resynchronization circuit on the tim_etrp signal. As a consequence, the maximum frequency which can be correctly captured by the counter is at most ¼ of tim_ker_ck frequency. When the ETRP signal is faster, the user must apply a division of the external signal by a proper ETPS prescaler setting.

The diagram is labeled MSv62321V1.

30.3.8 Capture/compare channels

Each capture/compare channel is built around a capture/compare register (including a shadow register), an input stage for capture (with digital filter, multiplexing, and prescaler, except for channels 5 and 6) and an output stage (with comparator and output control).

Figure 185 to Figure 188 give an overview of one capture/compare channel.

The input stage samples the corresponding tim_tix input to generate a filtered signal tim_tixf. Then, an edge detector with polarity selection generates a signal (tim_tixfpy) 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).

The diagram is labeled MSv62322V2.

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

Figure 186. Capture/compare channel 1 main circuit

Schematic diagram of Capture/compare channel 1 main circuit showing input and output modes, registers, and logic gates.

The diagram illustrates the internal circuitry of Capture/compare channel 1. At the top, an APB Bus connects to an MCU-peripheral interface. This interface is connected via a 16/32-bit bus to a Capture/compare preload register. Below this register is a compare shadow register, which in turn connects to a Counter. A Comparator block compares the Counter's value with the compare shadow register's value, outputting CNT>CCR1 and CNT=CCR1 signals. The circuit is divided into Input mode and Output mode by a central vertical axis. In Input mode, various signals (CC1S[1], CC1S[0], IC1PS, CC1E, CC1G, TIMx_EGR) are processed through a series of OR and AND gates to control the Capture function, which writes the Counter's value into the Capture/compare preload register. In Output mode, the Compare transfer function uses the same gates to control the transfer of data from the preload register to the shadow register. Further logic gates process CC1S[1], CC1S[0], OC1PE, and a UEV signal (from the time base unit) to generate the OC1PE output, which is also labeled as TIMx_CCMR1. The diagram is labeled MSv63030V1 in the bottom right corner.

  1. 1. Not available externally.

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.

30.3.9 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 overcapture 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 tim_ti1 input rises. To do this, use the following procedure:

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 may 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.

30.3.10 PWM input mode

This mode is used to measure both the period and the duty cycle of a PWM signal connected to single tim_tix input:

This mode is a particular case of input capture mode. The set-up procedure is similar with the following differences:

The period and the pulsewidth of a PWM signal applied on tim_ti1 can be measured using the following procedure:

30.3.11 Forced output mode

In output mode ( CCxS bits = 00 in the TIMx_CCMRx register), each output compare signal ( tim_ocxref and then tim_ocx/tim_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 ( tim_ocxref/tim_ocx ) to its active level, user just needs to write 0101 in the OCxM bits in the corresponding TIMx_CCMRx register. Thus tim_ocxref is forced high ( tim_ocxref is always active high) and tim_ocx get opposite value to CCxP polarity bit.

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

The tim_ocxref signal can be forced low by writing the OCxM bits to 0100 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.

30.3.12 Output compare mode

This function is used to control an output waveform or indicate when a period of time has elapsed. Channels 1 to 4 can be output, while channel 5 and 6 are only available inside the microcontroller (for instance, for compound waveform generation or for ADC triggering).

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

set active (OCxM = 0001), be set inactive (OCxM = 0010) or can toggle (OCxM = 0011) on match.

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 tim_ocxref and tim_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 = 0011 to toggle tim_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 190 .

Figure 190. Output compare mode, toggle on tim_oc1

Timing diagram for Output compare mode, toggle on tim_oc1. The diagram shows three horizontal timelines: CNT (Counter), CCR1 (Capture/Compare Register 1), and tim_oc1ref = tim_oc1 (Output signal). CNT starts at 0039, increments through 003A, 003B, and eventually reaches B200 and B201. CCR1 is initially set to 003A and is updated to B201. The output tim_oc1ref is initially high. It toggles to low when CNT reaches 003A and toggles back to high when CNT reaches B201. Arrows indicate that the match at 003A and the match at B201 both trigger a toggle of the output. A note indicates that a match is detected on CCR1 and an interrupt is generated if enabled. A callout points to the CCR1 register with the text 'Write B201h in the CC1R register'. The diagram is labeled MSV62326V1.

30.3.13 PWM mode

Pulse width modulation mode is used to generate a signal 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 tim_ocx output) by writing 0110 (PWM mode 1) or 0111 (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 autoreload 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.

tim_ocx polarity is software programmable using the CCxP bit in the TIMx_CCER register. It can be programmed as active high or active low. tim_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 timer is able to generate PWM in edge-aligned mode or center-aligned mode depending on the CMS bits in the TIMx_CR1 register.

PWM edge-aligned mode

Upcounting is active when the DIR bit in the TIMx_CR1 register is low. Refer to Upcounting mode .

In the following example, the mode is PWM mode 1. The reference PWM signal tim_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 autoreload value (in TIMx_ARR) then tim_ocxref is held at 1. If the compare value is zero then tim_ocxref is held at 0.

Figure 191 shows some edge-aligned PWM waveforms in an example where TIMx_ARR = 8.

Figure 191. Edge-aligned PWM waveforms (ARR = 8)

Timing diagram showing edge-aligned PWM waveforms for different compare register (CCR) values. The counter register (TIMx_CNT) counts from 0 to 8 and then reloads to 0. The diagram shows four cases: CCRx=4, CCRx=8, CCRx>8, and CCRx=0. For each case, the tim_ocxref signal and the CCxIF flag are shown. For CCRx=4, tim_ocxref is high from 0 to 4 and low from 4 to 8. For CCRx=8, tim_ocxref is high from 0 to 8 and low from 8 to 0. For CCRx>8, tim_ocxref is always high. For CCRx=0, tim_ocxref is always low. The CCxIF flag is set when the counter reaches the compare value.

The diagram shows four cases: CCRx=4, CCRx=8, CCRx>8, and CCRx=0. For each case, the tim_ocxref signal and the CCxIF flag are shown. For CCRx=4, tim_ocxref is high from 0 to 4 and low from 4 to 8. For CCRx=8, tim_ocxref is high from 0 to 8 and low from 8 to 0. For CCRx>8, tim_ocxref is always high. For CCRx=0, tim_ocxref is always low. The CCxIF flag is set when the counter reaches the compare value.

Downcounting is active when DIR bit in TIMx_CR1 register is high. Refer to the Downcounting mode

In PWM mode 1, the reference signal tim_ocxref is low as long as TIMx_CNT > TIMx_CCRx else it becomes high. If the compare value in TIMx_CCRx is greater than the autoreload value in TIMx_ARR, then tim_ocxref is held at 1. 0% PWM is not possible in this mode.

PWM center-aligned mode

Center-aligned mode is active when the CMS bits in TIMx_CR1 register are different from 00 (all the remaining configurations having the same effect on the tim_ocxref/tim_ocx signals). The compare flag is set when the counter counts up, when it counts down or both when it counts up and down depending on the CMS bits configuration. The direction bit

(DIR) in the TIMx_CR1 register is updated by hardware and must not be changed by software. Refer to Center-aligned mode (up/down counting) .

Figure 192 shows some center-aligned PWM waveforms in an example where:

Hints on using center-aligned mode:

Dithering mode

The PWM mode effective resolution can be increased by enabling the dithering mode, using the DITHEN bit in the TIMx_CR1 register. This applies to both the CCR (for duty cycle resolution increase) and ARR (for PWM frequency resolution increase).

The operating principle is to have the actual CCR (or ARR) value slightly changed (adding or not one timer clock period) over 16 consecutive PWM periods, with predefined patterns. This allows a 16-fold resolution increase, considering the average duty cycle or PWM period. Figure 193 presents the dithering principle applied to four consecutive PWM cycles.

Figure 193. Dithering principle

Figure 193. Dithering principle. The figure shows five rows of PWM waveforms over four consecutive cycles. The first row shows a standard PWM with a high pulse of 7 clock cycles and a low pulse of 5 clock cycles, labeled 'Average duty cycle' and 'DC = 7/5'. The subsequent rows show the effect of dithering: DC = (7+1/4)/5, DC = (7+1/2)/5, DC = (7+3/4)/5, and DC = 8/5. In each row, the high pulse width is increased by 1/4, 1/2, 3/4, and 1 clock cycles respectively, distributed across the four cycles. The last row shows the high pulse width returning to 7 clock cycles. A '1 clock cycle' label with arrows indicates the duration of one cycle.

When the dithering mode is enabled, the register coding is changed as follows (see Figure 194 for example):

  1. Note: The following sequence must be followed when resetting the DITHEN bit:
    1. 1. CEN and ARPE bits must be reset.
    2. 2. The DITHEN bit must be reset.
    3. 3. The CCIF flags must be cleared.
    4. 4. The CEN bit can be set (eventually with ARPE = 1).

Figure 194. Data format and register coding in dithering mode

The general format shows a 20-bit register split into a 16-bit integer part (MSB) and a 4-bit fractional part (LSB). The example shows the value 326, which is split into 20 for the integer part and 6 for the fractional part. Arrows point from these values to a description: 'Base compare value is 20 during 16 periods' and 'Additional 6 cycles are spread over the 16 periods'. The diagram is labeled MSV45753V2.

The first diagram, labeled 'Register format in dithering mode', shows a 20-bit register with bits b19 to b0. The register is split into two parts: the MSB (Most Significant Bit) which is a 16-bit integer part, and the LSB (Least Significant Bit) which is a 4-bit fractional part. The second diagram, labeled 'Example', shows the value 326 being split into 20 for the integer part and 6 for the fractional part. Arrows point from these values to a description: 'Base compare value is 20 during 16 periods' and 'Additional 6 cycles are spread over the 16 periods'. The diagram is labeled MSV45753V2.

The minimum frequency is given by the following formula:

\[ \text{Resolution} = \frac{F_{\text{Tim}}}{F_{\text{pwm}}} \Rightarrow F_{\text{pwmMin}} = \frac{F_{\text{Tim}}}{\text{Max}_{\text{Resolution}}} \]

\[ \text{Dithering mode disabled: } F_{\text{pwmMin}} = \frac{F_{\text{Tim}}}{65536} \]

\[ \text{Dithering mode enabled: } F_{\text{pwmMin}} = \frac{F_{\text{Tim}}}{65535 + \frac{15}{16}} \]

  1. Note: The maximum TIMx_ARR and TIMxCCRy values are limited to 0xFFFEF in dithering mode (corresponds to 65534 for the integer part and 15 for the dithered part).

As shown on Figure 195, the dithering mode is used to increase the PWM resolution whatever the PWM frequency.

The dithering mode is also available in center-aligned PWM mode (CMS bits in TIMx_CR1 register are not equal to 00). In this case, the dithering pattern is applied over eight consecutive PWM periods, considering the up and down counting phases as shown in Figure 197.

30.3.14 Asymmetric PWM mode

Asymmetric mode allows two center-aligned PWM signals to be generated with a programmable phase shift. While the frequency is determined by the value of the TIMx_ARR register, the duty cycle and the phase-shift are determined by a pair of TIMx_CCRx register. One register controls the PWM during up-counting, the second during down counting, so that PWM is adjusted every half PWM cycle:

Asymmetric PWM mode can be selected independently on two channel (one tim_ocx output per pair of CCR registers) by writing 1110 (Asymmetric PWM mode 1) or 1111 (Asymmetric PWM mode 2) in the OCxM bits in the TIMx_CCMRx register.

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

When a given channel is used as asymmetric PWM channel, its complementary channel can also be used. For instance, if an tim_oc1refc signal is generated on channel 1 (Asymmetric PWM mode 1), it is possible to output either the tim_oc2ref signal on channel 2, or an tim_oc2refc signal resulting from asymmetric PWM mode 1.

Figure 198 represents an example of signals that can be generated using asymmetric PWM mode (channels 1 to 4 are configured in asymmetric PWM mode 2). Together with the deadtime generator, this allows a full-bridge phase-shifted DC to DC converter to be controlled.

30.3.15 Combined PWM mode

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, tim_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 tim_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 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] bitfield is split into two parts for compatibility reasons, the most significant bit is not contiguous with the three least significant ones.

Figure 199 represents an example of signals that can be generated using combined PWM mode, obtained with the following configuration:

30.3.16 Combined 3-phase PWM mode

Combined 3-phase PWM mode allows one to three center-aligned PWM signals to be generated with a single programmable signal ANDed in the middle of the pulses. The \( tim\_oc5ref \) signal is used to define the resulting combined signal. The 3-bits \( GC5C[3:1] \) in the \( TIMx\_CCR5 \) allow selection on which reference signal the \( tim\_oc5ref \) is combined. The resulting signals, \( tim\_ocxrefc \) , are made of an AND logical combination of two reference PWMs:

Combined 3-phase PWM mode can be selected independently on channels 1 to 3 by setting at least one of the 3-bits \( GC5C[3:1] \) .

30.3.17 Complementary outputs and dead-time insertion

The advanced-control timers (TIM1) can output two complementary signals and manage the switching-off and the switching-on instants 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 (such as intrinsic delays of level-shifters, or delays due to power switches).

The polarity of the outputs (main output tim_ocx or complementary tim_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 tim_ocx and tim_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 288: Output control bits for complementary tim_ocx and tim_ocxn channels with break feature 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 tim_ocxref, it generates two outputs tim_ocx and tim_ocxn. If tim_ocx and tim_ocxn are active high:

If the delay is greater than the width of the active output (tim_ocx or tim_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 tim_ocxref considering CCxP = 0, CCxNP = 0, MOE = 1, CCxE = 1 and CCxNE = 1 in these examples.

Figure 201. Complementary output with symmetrical dead-time insertion

Timing diagram showing three waveforms: tim_ocxref (reference), tim_ocx (output), and tim_ocxn (complementary output). The diagram illustrates symmetrical dead-time insertion. Vertical dashed lines mark the rising and falling edges of the reference signal. The tim_ocx signal is delayed at its rising edge relative to the reference rising edge. The tim_ocxn signal is delayed at its falling edge relative to the reference falling edge. Horizontal double-headed arrows labeled 'delay' indicate the time intervals for these delays. The source code 'MSv62332V1' is visible in the bottom right corner of the diagram area.

The source code 'MSv62332V1' is visible in the bottom right corner of the diagram area.

The DTAE bit in the TIMx_DTR2 is used to differentiate the deadtime values for rising and falling edges of the reference signal, as shown on Figure 202 .

In asymmetrical mode (DTAE = 1), the rising edge-referred deadtime is defined by the DTG[7:0] bitfield in the TIMx_BDTR register, while the falling edge-referred is defined by the DTGF[7:0] bitfield in the TIMx_DTR2 register. The DTAE bit must be written before enabling the counter and must not be modified while CEN = 1.

It is possible to have the deadtime value updated on-the-fly during pwm operation, using a preload mechanism. The deadtime bitfield DTG[7:0] and DTGF[7:0] are preloaded when the DTPE bit is set, in the TIMx_DTR2 register. The preload value is loaded in the active register on the next update event.

Note: If the DTPE bit is enabled while the counter is enabled, any new value written since last update is discarded and previous value is used.

Figure 202. Asymmetrical deadtime

Timing diagram showing symmetrical and asymmetrical deadtime between tim_ocxref, tim_ocx, and tim_ocxn signals. In the symmetrical case (DTAE=0), deadtime is equal on both rising and falling edges. In the asymmetrical case (DTAE=1), deadtime is different on rising and falling edges.

The figure displays two sets of timing diagrams for three signals: tim_ocxref , tim_ocx , and tim_ocxn .

MSv62333V1

A horizontal double-headed arrow labeled delay indicates the time interval between the rising edge of tim_ocxref and the rising edge of tim_ocx . This delay is visibly greater than the duration of the positive pulse of tim_ocxref .

MSv62335V1

Timing diagram where the deadtime delay is greater than the positive pulse width of tim_ocxref.

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 30.6.20: TIM1 break and dead-time register (TIM1_BDTR) for delay calculation.

Redirecting tim_ocxref to tim_ocx or tim_ocxn

In output mode (forced, output compare or PWM), tim_ocxref can be redirected to the tim_ocx output or to tim_ocxn output by configuring the CCxE and CCxNE bits in the TIMx_CCER register.

This is used to send a specific waveform (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 tim_ocxn is enabled (CCxE = 0, CCxNE = 1), it is not complemented and becomes active as soon as tim_ocxref is high. For example, if CCxNP = 0 then tim_ocxn = tim_ocxref. On the other hand, when both tim_ocx and tim_ocxn are enabled (CCxE = CCxNE = 1) tim_ocx becomes active when tim_ocxref is high whereas tim_ocxn is complemented and becomes active when tim_ocxref is low.

30.3.18 Using the break function

The purpose of the break function is to protect power switches driven by PWM signals generated with the timers. The two break inputs are 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. A number of internal MCU events can also be selected to trigger an output shut-down.

The break features two channels. A break channel which gathers both system-level fault (clock failure, ECC/parity errors,...) and application fault (from input pins and built-in comparator), and can force the outputs to a predefined level (either active or inactive) after a deadtime duration. A break2 channel which only includes application faults and is able to force the outputs to an inactive state.

The output enable signal and output levels during break are depending on several control bits:

When exiting from reset, the break circuit is disabled and the MOE bit is low. The break functions can be enabled by setting the BKE and BK2E bits in the TIMx_BDTR register. The break input polarities can be selected by configuring the BKP and BK2P bits in the same register. BKEx and BKPx can be modified at the same time. When the BKEx and BKPx bits are written, a delay of one APB clock cycle is applied before the writing is effective. Consequently, it is necessary to wait one 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 sources for break (tim_brk) channel are:

The sources for break2 (tim_brk2) are:

Break events can also be generated by software using BG and B2G bits in the TIMx_EGR register.

All sources are ORed before entering the timer tim_brk or tim_brk2 inputs, as per Figure 205 below.

Figure 205. Break and Break2 circuitry overview

Figure 205. Break and Break2 circuitry overview. This block diagram illustrates the internal logic for generating break signals in the TIM1 timer. The top section shows the 'tim_sys_brk' signal generation, which is an OR of several AND gates. Each AND gate takes an 'Enable' input (tim_sys_brk0 through tim_sys_brkx) and a 'CSS' input. The output of this OR gate is 'tim_sys_brk', which is connected to the 'SBIF' flag. The middle section shows the 'tim_brk' signal generation. It starts with 'BKINP' (from TIMx_BKIN from AF controller) and 'tim_brk_cmp[4:1]' inputs. 'BKINP' is inverted and ANDed with 'BKINE'. 'tim_brk_cmp[4:1]' is inverted and ANDed with 'BKCMP1E..BKCMP4E'. These two results are ORed and then passed through a filter (BKF[3:0]). The filtered signal is ANDed with 'BKP'. The output of this AND gate is 'Application break requests'. This signal is ORed with 'Software break requests: BG' (from BKE) to produce the 'tim_brk' signal, which is connected to the 'BIF' flag. The bottom section shows the 'tim_brk2' signal generation, which follows a similar structure to the 'tim_brk' section but uses 'BK2INP' (from TIMx_BKIN2 from AF controller), 'tim_brk2_cmp[4:1]', 'BK2INE', 'BK2CMP1E..BK2CMP4E', 'BK2F[3:0]', 'BK2P', 'BK2E', and 'Software break requests: B2G' to produce the 'tim_brk2' signal, which is connected to the 'B2IF' flag. The diagram is labeled MSv62336V2.

The diagram is labeled MSv62336V2.

Note: An asynchronous (clockless) operation is only guaranteed when the programmable filter is disabled. If it is enabled, a fail safe clock mode (for example by using the internal PLL and/or the CSS) must be used to guarantee that break events are handled.

When one of the breaks occurs (selected level on one of the break inputs):

their active level together. Note that because of the resynchronization on MOE, the dead-time duration is slightly longer than usual (around 2 tim_ker_ck clock cycles).

Note: If the MOE is reset by the CPU while the AOE bit is set, the outputs are in idle state and forced to inactive level or Hi-Z depending on OSSI value. If both the MOE and AOE bits are reset by the CPU, the outputs are in disabled state and driven with the level programmed in the OISx bit in the TIMx_CR2 register.

The break inputs are active 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 and B2IF cannot be cleared.

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 is used to freeze the configuration of several parameters (dead-time duration, tim_ocx/tim_ocxn polarities and state when disabled, OCxM configurations, break enable, and polarity). The application can choose from three levels of protection selected by the LOCK bits in the TIMx_BDTR register. Refer to Section 30.6.20 . The LOCK bits can be written only once after an MCU reset.

Figure 206 shows an example of behavior of the outputs in response to a break.

The tim_brk has a higher priority than tim_brk2 input, as described in Table 281 .

Note: tim_brk2 must only be used with OSSR = OSSI = 1.

Figure 207 gives an example of tim_ocx and tim_ocxn output behavior in case of active signals on tim_brk and tim_brk2 inputs. In this case, both outputs have active high polarities (CCxP = CCxNP = 0 in TIMx_CCER register).

The I/O state is divided into Active, Inactive, and Idle periods. Deadtime is indicated between the Active and Inactive periods for both tim_ocx and tim_ocxn signals.

The timing diagram illustrates the behavior of PWM outputs (tim_ocx and tim_ocxn) following the assertion of break inputs (tim_brk and tim_brk2). The diagram is divided into three main I/O states: Active, Inactive, and Idle.
1. Active State: Both tim_ocx and tim_ocxn are high.
2. Assertion: When tim_brk2 or tim_brk goes active (low), the outputs begin to transition.
3. Inactive State: Both tim_ocx and tim_ocxn become low. A 'Deadtime' interval is shown between the transition of the break inputs and the actual change in output states.
4. Idle State: After the break inputs return to inactive (high), there is another 'Deadtime' interval before the outputs return to their initial high state (Active).

30.3.19 Bidirectional break inputs

The TIM1 features bidirectional break I/Os, as represented on Figure 209 .

This provides support for:

The tim_brk and tim_brk2 inputs are configured in bidirectional mode using the BKBID and BK2BID bits in the TIMxBDTR register. The BKBID programming bits can be locked in read-only mode using the LOCK bits in the TIMxBDTR register (in LOCK level 1 or above).

The bidirectional mode is available for both the tim_brk and tim_brk2 inputs, and require the I/O to be configured in open-drain mode with active low polarity (using BKINP , BKP , BK2INP and BK2P bits). Any break request coming either from system (for example CSS ), from on-chip peripherals, or from break inputs forces a low level on the break input to signal the fault event. The bidirectional mode is inhibited if the polarity bits are not correctly set (active high polarity), for safety purposes.

The break software events ( BG and B2G ) also cause the break I/O to be forced to 0 to indicate to the external components that the timer is entered in break state. However, this is valid only if the break is enabled ( BKE or B2KE = 1). When a software break event is generated with BKE or B2KE = 0), the outputs are put in safe state and the break flag is set, but there is no effect on the TIMx_BKIN and TIMx_BKIN2 I/Os.

A safe disarming mechanism prevents the system to be definitively locked-up (a low level on the break input triggers a break which enforces a low level on the same input).

When the BKDSRM ( BK2DSRM ) bit is set to 1, this releases the break output to clear a fault signal and to give the possibility to re-arm the system.

At no point the break protection circuitry can be disabled:

Arming and rearming break circuitry

The break circuitry (in input or bidirectional mode) is armed by default (peripheral reset configuration).

The following procedure must be followed to re-arm the protection after a break (break2) event:

From this point, the break circuitry is armed and active, and the MOE bit can be set to re-enable the PWM outputs.

Figure 209. Output redirection (tim_brk2 request not represented). This block diagram illustrates the internal logic of the break circuitry. On the left, 'Other break inputs' and a 'Bidirectional Break I/O TIM_BKIN' (with AF input active low and AF output open drain) are connected to an 'AF controller'. The AF controller outputs 'tim_brk_cmp[8:1]' and 'BKIN inputs from AF controller'. These pass through an OR gate, then a 'Filter' block labeled 'BKF[3:0]', and then a 'BKP' block. The output of BKP goes to an AND gate along with 'Application break requests' (from 'Software break requests: BG'). The output of this AND gate is 'tim_sys_brk', which sets the 'SBIF flag'. Below, 'Bidirectional mode control logic' takes 'MOE', 'BKBID', and 'BKDSRM' as inputs and outputs 'System break request' and 'tim_brk request'. The 'tim_brk request' goes to another AND gate along with 'BKE' (from the first AND gate). The output of this second AND gate is 'BRK request', which sets the 'BIF flag' and is labeled 'tim_brk'. The diagram is labeled 'MSV62340V2' in the bottom right corner.

30.3.20 Clearing the tim_ocxref signal on an external event

The tim_ocxref signal of a given channel can be cleared when a high level is applied on the tim_ocref_clr_int input (OCxCE enable bit in the corresponding TIMx_CCMRx register set to 1). tim_ocxref remains low until the next transition to the active state, on the following PWM

cycle. This function can only be used in Output compare and PWM modes. It does not work in Forced mode. tim_ocref_clr_int input can be selected between the tim_ocref_clr input and tim_etrf ( tim_etr_in after the filter) by configuring the OCCS bit in the TIMx_SMCR register.

The tim_ocref_clr input can be selected among several inputs, using the OCRSEL[2:0] bitfield in the TIMx_AF2 register, as shown on the Figure 210 below. Refer to Section 30.3.2: TIM1 pins and internal signals for a list of sources available in the product.

Figure 210. tim_ocref_clr input selection multiplexer

Figure 210: tim_ocref_clr input selection multiplexer diagram. The diagram shows two multiplexers. The first multiplexer has eight inputs labeled tim_ocref_clr0 through tim_ocref_clr7. Its selection is controlled by the OCRSEL[2:0] bitfield in the TIMx_AF2 register. The output of this multiplexer is labeled tim_ocref_clr. The second multiplexer has two inputs: tim_ocref_clr and tim_etrf. Its selection is controlled by the OCCS bit in the TIMx_SMCR register. The output of the second multiplexer is labeled tim_ocref_clr_int. The diagram is labeled MSv62341V2 in the bottom right corner.

The diagram illustrates the input selection for the tim_ocref_clr_int signal. It consists of two multiplexers. The first multiplexer selects between eight internal signals ( tim_ocref_clr0 through tim_ocref_clr7 ) based on the OCRSEL[2:0] configuration in the TIMx_AF2 register. Its output is tim_ocref_clr . The second multiplexer then selects between tim_ocref_clr and the external trigger filter output tim_etrf based on the OCCS bit in the TIMx_SMCR register, resulting in the final output tim_ocref_clr_int .

Figure 210: tim_ocref_clr input selection multiplexer diagram. The diagram shows two multiplexers. The first multiplexer has eight inputs labeled tim_ocref_clr0 through tim_ocref_clr7. Its selection is controlled by the OCRSEL[2:0] bitfield in the TIMx_AF2 register. The output of this multiplexer is labeled tim_ocref_clr. The second multiplexer has two inputs: tim_ocref_clr and tim_etrf. Its selection is controlled by the OCCS bit in the TIMx_SMCR register. The output of the second multiplexer is labeled tim_ocref_clr_int. The diagram is labeled MSv62341V2 in the bottom right corner.

When tim_etrf is chosen, tim_etr_in must be configured as follows:

  1. 1. The external trigger prescaler must be kept off: bits ETPS[1:0] of the TIMx_SMCR register set to 00.
  2. 2. The external clock mode 2 must be disabled: bit ECE of the TIMx_SMCR register set to 0.
  3. 3. The external trigger polarity ( ETP ) and the external trigger filter ( ETF ) can be configured according to application needs (as per polarity of the source connected to the trigger and eventual need to remove noise using the filter).

Figure 211 shows the behavior of the tim_ocxref signal when the tim_etrf input becomes high, for both values of the enable bit OCxCE . In this example, the timer TIMx is programmed in PWM mode.

Figure 211. Clearing TIMx tim_ocxref

Timing diagram showing the relationship between Counter (CNT), tim_etrf, and tim_ocxref signals. The diagram illustrates how the tim_ocxref signal is cleared by a tim_ocref_clr_int interrupt. The Counter (CNT) signal is a sawtooth wave. The tim_etrf signal is a rectangular pulse. The tim_ocxref signal (OCxCE = '0') is a rectangular pulse that is cleared by the tim_ocref_clr_int interrupt. The tim_ocxref signal (OCxCE = '1') is a rectangular pulse that is set by the tim_ocref_clr_int interrupt. The diagram shows two instances of the tim_ocref_clr_int interrupt becoming high, which clears the tim_ocxref signal (OCxCE = '0'). The first instance occurs while the tim_ocxref signal (OCxCE = '1') is high, and the second instance occurs while the tim_ocxref signal (OCxCE = '1') is still high.

The figure is a timing diagram with four horizontal signal lines. The top line, labeled 'Counter (CNT) (CCRx)', shows a sawtooth waveform representing the timer counter. The second line, labeled 'tim_etrf', shows a rectangular pulse. The third line, labeled 'tim_ocxref (OCxCE = '0')', shows a rectangular pulse that is high when the counter is below a certain value and low otherwise. The bottom line, labeled 'tim_ocxref (OCxCE = '1')', shows a rectangular pulse that is high when the counter is below a certain value and low otherwise. Two arrows point to the bottom line, labeled 'tim_ocref_clr_int becomes high' and 'tim_ocref_clr_int still high', indicating the effect of the interrupt on the output signal. The diagram is labeled 'MSv62342V1' in the bottom right corner.

Note: In case of a PWM with a 100% duty cycle (if CCRx>ARR), then tim_ocxref is enabled again at the next counter overflow.

30.3.21 6-step PWM generation

When complementary outputs are used on a channel, preload bits are available on the OCxM, CCxE, and CCxNE bits. The preload bits are transferred to the shadow bits at the COM commutation event. Thus one can program in advance the configuration for the next step and change the configuration of all the channels at the same time. COM can be generated by software by setting the COM bit in the TIMx_EGR register or by hardware (on tim_trgi rising edge).

A flag is set when the COM event occurs (COMIF bit in the TIMx_SR register), which can generate an interrupt (if the COMIE bit is set in the TIMx_DIER register) or a DMA request (if the COMDE bit is set in the TIMx_DIER register).

Figure 212 describes the behavior of the tim_ocx and tim_ocxn outputs when a COM event occurs, in three different examples of programmed configurations.

Figure 212. 6-step generation, COM example (OSSR = 1)

Timing diagram for 6-step generation, COM example (OSSR = 1). The diagram shows the relationship between Counter (CNT), tim_ocxref, COM event, and output signals (tim_ocx, tim_ocxn) for three examples. The counter (CNT) is shown as a sawtooth wave. tim_ocxref is a periodic signal. The COM event is a pulse. Example 1 shows tim_ocx and tim_ocxn signals with initial configuration CCxE = 1, CCxNE = 0, OCxM = 0010 (forced inactive). Example 2 shows tim_ocx and tim_ocxn signals with initial configuration CCxE = 1, CCxNE = 0, OCxM = 0100 (forced inactive). Example 3 shows tim_ocx and tim_ocxn signals with initial configuration CCxE = 1, CCxNE = 0, OCxM = 0010 (forced inactive). Arrows indicate configuration changes: 'Write COM to 1', 'Write OCxM to 0100', 'Write CCxNE to 1 and OCxM to 0101', and 'Write CCxNE to 0 and OCxM to 0100'.

The figure is a timing diagram illustrating the 6-step generation using the COM (Capture/Compare Output Management) feature of an advanced-control timer (TIM1) with OSSR = 1. The diagram is divided into several horizontal tracks:

The diagram also includes a label "Write COM to 1" pointing to the COM event pulse. The identifier "MSV62343V1" is present in the bottom right corner.

30.3.22 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 213. Example of one pulse mode.

Timing diagram for one pulse mode. The diagram shows four waveforms over time (t). 1. tim_ti2: A positive pulse that triggers the counter. 2. tim_oc1ref: A signal that is initially high, then goes low when the counter starts, and returns high when the counter reaches the auto-reload value. 3. tim_oc1: The output pulse, which goes high when the counter starts and goes low when the counter reaches the compare value. 4. Counter: A sawtooth-like waveform that starts at 0, increments in steps until it reaches the auto-reload value (TIMx_ARR), and then resets to 0. The time from the rising edge of tim_ti2 to the rising edge of tim_oc1ref is labeled t_DELAY. The time from the rising edge of tim_oc1ref to the falling edge of tim_oc1 is labeled t_PULSE. The diagram is labeled MSV62344V1.

The diagram is labeled MSV62344V1.

In the following example, the user wants to generate a positive pulse on tim_oc1 with a length of \( t_{PULSE} \) and after a delay of \( t_{DELAY} \) as soon as a positive edge is detected on the tim_ti2 input pin.

Use tim_ti2fp2 as trigger 1:

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

In this example, the DIR and CMS bits in the TIMx_CR1 register must be low.

Since only one pulse (Single mode) 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 autoreload value back to 0). When OPM bit in the TIMx_CR1 register is set to 0, so the Repetitive mode is selected.

Particular case: tim_ocx fast enable:

In One-pulse mode, the edge detection on tim_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 \( t_{\text{DELAY min}} \) that can be achieved.

To output a waveform with the minimum delay, the OCxFE bit can be set in the TIMx_CCMRx register. Then tim_ocxref (and tim_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.

30.3.23 Retriggerable One-pulse mode

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 nonretriggerable one-pulse mode described in Section 30.3.22 :

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] bitfields are split into two parts for compatibility reasons, the most significant bit are not contiguous with the three 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 214. Retriggerable one-pulse mode

Timing diagram for Retriggerable One-pulse mode. The diagram shows three waveforms over time: tim_trgi (trigger), Counter, and tim_ocx (output). The tim_trgi signal has three positive pulses. The Counter signal is a sawtooth wave that starts at 0 on the first trigger and increases linearly until it reaches a horizontal dashed line representing the autoreload value (ARR). When a second trigger occurs before the counter reaches ARR, the counter is reset to 0 and starts increasing again. When a third trigger occurs, the counter is reset again. The tim_ocx signal is a rectangular pulse that goes high when the counter starts and goes low when the counter reaches the ARR value. The diagram illustrates that the output pulse is extended if a new trigger occurs before the previous one is completed.

30.3.24 Pulse on compare mode

A pulse can be generated upon compare match event. A signal with a programmable pulsewidth generated when the counter value equals a given compare value, for debugging or synchronization purposes.

This mode is available for any slave mode selection, including encoder modes, in edge and center aligned counting modes. It is solely available for channel 3 and channel 4. The pulse generator is unique and is shared by the two channels, as shown on Figure 215 .

Figure 215. Pulse generator circuitry

Figure 215. Pulse generator circuitry diagram

The diagram illustrates the pulse generator circuitry for channels 3 and 4. On the left, two 'CCR match' inputs (CCR3 match and CCR4 match) are each connected to an 'Enable' block. These 'Enable' blocks are also controlled by configuration values OC3M = 1010 and OC4M = 1010. The outputs of these 'Enable' blocks are connected to an OR gate. The output of the OR gate is connected to a 'Pulse generator' block. The 'Pulse generator' block also receives inputs from a 'PWPRSC [2:0]' register and a 'PW[7:0]' register. The output of the 'Pulse generator' is connected to the 'Reset' input of an 'R/S' flip-flop for channel 3 and the 'Set' input of an 'R/S' flip-flop for channel 4. There is a falling-edge trigger symbol on the line from the pulse generator. The 'Set' input for the top R/S flip-flop and the 'Reset' input for the bottom R/S flip-flop are connected to the original CCR match signals. The outputs of the R/S flip-flops are combined with the pulse generator output via AND gates to produce the final signals tim_oc3 and tim_oc4. The identifier 'MSv62346V1' is in the bottom right corner.

Figure 215. Pulse generator circuitry diagram

Figure 216 shows how the pulse is generated for edge-aligned and encoder operating modes.

Figure 216. Pulse generation on compare event, for edge-aligned and encoder modes

Figure 216: Pulse generation on compare event, for edge-aligned and encoder modes. The figure contains two timing diagrams. The top diagram shows the Counter, CMP3, Triggers, and tim_ocx signals. The Counter is a sawtooth wave. CMP3 is a dashed line representing a compare value. Triggers are vertical arrows indicating falling edges of the Counter. tim_ocx is a pulse signal that goes high when the Counter reaches CMP3 and low when it overflows. A second trigger occurs while the pulse is still high, causing the pulse to be extended. A label 'Extended pulsewidth due to re-trigger' points to this extended pulse. The bottom diagram shows the same signals but with the Counter running in reverse (encoder mode). The pulse on tim_ocx is generated when the Counter reaches CMP3 from above. A second trigger occurs while the pulse is still high, causing the pulse to be extended. The diagram is labeled MSv62347V1.

This output compare mode is selected using the OC3M[3:0] and OC4M[3:0] bitfields in TIMx_CCMR2 register.

The pulsewidth is programmed using the PW[7:0] bitfield in the register, using a specific clock prescaled according to PWPRSC[2:0] bits, as follows:

\[ t_{PW} = PW[7:0] \times t_{PWG} \]

\[ \text{where } t_{PWG} = (2^{(PWPRSC[2:0])}) \times t_{tim\_ker\_ck} \]

gives the resolution and maximum values depending on the prescaler value.

The pulse is retriggerable: a new trigger while the pulse is ongoing, causes the pulse to be extended.

Note: If the two channels are enabled simultaneously, the pulses are issued independently as long as the trigger on one channel is not overlapping the pulse generated on the concurrent output. On the opposite, if the two triggers are overlapping, the pulse width related to the first arriving trigger is extended (because of the retrigger), while the pulse width of the last arriving trigger is correct (as shown on Figure 217).

Figure 217. Extended pulsewidth in case of concurrent triggers

Trigger CMP3 and Trigger CMP4 are shown as vertical dashed lines representing falling edges. tim_oc3 and tim_oc4 are shown as solid lines representing output pulses. The diagram illustrates that when the falling edges of Trigger CMP3 and Trigger CMP4 occur concurrently, the pulsewidth of tim_oc3 is extended due to the overlapping CMP4 trigger. The text 'Extended pulsewidth due to overlapping CMP4 trigger' is present in the diagram. The identifier MSv62348V1 is located in the bottom right corner.

30.3.25 Encoder interface mode

Quadrature encoder

To select Encoder Interface mode write SMS = 0001 in the TIMx_SMCR register if the counter is counting on tim_ti1 edges only, SMS = 0010 if it is counting on tim_ti2 edges only and SMS = 0011 if it is counting on both tim_ti1 and tim_ti2 edges.

Select the tim_ti1 and tim_ti2 polarity by programming the CC1P and CC2P bits in the TIMx_CCER register. When needed, the input filter can be programmed as well. CC1NP and CC2NP must be kept low.

The two inputs tim_ti1 and tim_ti2 are used to interface to an quadrature encoder. Refer to Table 283 . The counter is clocked by each valid transition on tim_ti1fp1 or tim_ti2fp2 (tim_ti1 and tim_ti2 after input filter and polarity selection, tim_ti1fp1 = tim_ti1 if not filtered and not inverted, tim_ti2fp2 = tim_ti2 if not filtered and not inverted) assuming that it is enabled (CEN bit in TIMx_CR1 register written to 1). The sequence of transitions of the two inputs is evaluated and generates count pulses as well as the direction signal. Depending on the sequence the counter counts up or down, the DIR bit in the TIMx_CR1 register is modified by hardware accordingly. The DIR bit is calculated at each transition on any input (tim_ti1 or tim_ti2), whatever the counter is counting on tim_ti1 only, tim_ti2 only or both tim_ti1 and tim_ti2.

Encoder interface mode acts simply as an external clock with direction selection. This means that the counter just counts continuously between 0 and the autoreload value in the TIMx_ARR register (0 to ARR or ARR down to 0 depending on the direction). So the TIMx_ARR must be configured before starting. In the same way, the capture, compare, prescaler, repetition counter, trigger output features continue to work as normal. Encoder mode and External clock mode 2 are not compatible and must not be selected together.

In this mode, the counter is modified automatically following the speed and the direction of the quadrature encoder and its content, therefore, always represents the encoder's position. The count direction correspond to the rotation direction of the connected sensor. The table summarizes the possible combinations, assuming tim_ti1 and tim_ti2 do not switch at the same time.

A quadrature encoder can be connected directly to the MCU without external interface logic. However, comparators are normally used to convert the encoder's differential outputs to digital signals. This greatly increases noise immunity. The third encoder output which indicate the mechanical zero position, may be connected to the external trigger input and trigger a counter reset.

Figure 218 gives an example of counter operation, showing count signal generation and direction control. It also shows how input jitter is compensated where both edges are selected. This might occur if the sensor is positioned near to one of the switching points. For this example the configuration is the following:

This timing diagram illustrates the operation of a timer counter in encoder interface mode. It shows three signal traces: tim_ti1 , tim_ti2 , and Counter . The operation is divided into five phases: forward , jitter , backward , jitter , and forward . In the first forward phase, the counter increments, labeled up . In the backward phase, the counter decrements, labeled down . In the final forward phase, the counter increments again, labeled up . The jitter phases show transient signal changes. The diagram is labeled MSV62349V1.

The DIR bit is high during the first half and low during the second half. The diagram is labeled MSV62351V1 in the bottom right corner.

The timer, when configured in Encoder Interface mode provides information on the sensor's current position. Dynamic information can be obtained (speed, acceleration, deceleration) by measuring the period between two encoder events using a second timer configured in capture mode. The output of the encoder which indicates the mechanical zero can be used for this purpose. Depending on the time between two events, the counter can also be read at regular times. This can be done by latching the counter value into a third input capture register if available (then the capture signal must be periodic and can be generated by another timer). When available, it is also possible to read its value through a DMA request.

The IUFREMAP bit in the TIMx_CR1 register forces a continuous copy of the update interrupt flag (UIF) into the timer counter register's bit 31 (TIMxCNT[31]). This allows both the counter value and a potential roll-over condition signaled by the UIFCPY flag to be read in an atomic way. It eases the calculation of angular speed 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 UIF and UIFCPY flag assertions.

In 32-bit timer implementations, when the IUFREMAP bit is set, bit 31 of the counter is overwritten by the UIFCPY flag upon read access (the counter's most significant bit is only accessible in write mode).

Clock plus direction encoder mode

In addition to the quadrature encoder mode, the timer offers support for other types of encoders.

In the clock plus direction mode shown on Figure 221, the clock is provided on a single line, on tim_ti2, while the direction is forced using the tim_ti1 input.

This mode is enabled with the SMS[3:0] bitfield in the TIMx_SMCR register, as following:

The polarity of the direction signal on tim_ti1 is set with the CC1P bit: 0 corresponds to positive polarity (up-counting when tim_ti1 is high and down-counting when tim_ti1 is low) and CC1P = 1 corresponds to negative polarity (up-counting when tim_ti1 is low).

Directional clock encoder mode

In the directional clock mode on Figure 222 , the clocks are provided on two lines, with a single one at once, depending on the direction, so as to have one up-counting clock line and one down-counting clock line.

This mode is enabled with the SMS[3:0] bitfield in the TIMx_SMCR register, as following:

Index input

The counter can be reset by an index signal coming from the encoder, indicating an absolute reference position. The index signal must be connected to the tim_etr_in input. It can be filtered using the digital input filter.

The index functionality is enabled with the IE bit in the TIMX_ECR register. The IE bit must be set only in encoder mode, when the SMS[3:0] bitfield has the following values: 0001, 0010, 011, 1010, 1011, 1100, 1101, 1110, 1111.

Available encoders are proposed with several options for index pulse conditioning, as per Figure 224 :

Figure 224. Index gating options

Timing diagram showing five signal traces: Channel A, Channel B, Gated A & B, Gated A, and Ungated. Channel A and B are square waves. Gated A & B is a pulse that is high only when both A and B are high. Gated A is a pulse that is high only when A is high and B is rising. Ungated is a pulse that is high whenever A or B is high. Vertical dashed lines indicate timing relationships between the signals. The diagram is labeled MSv45765V1 in the bottom right corner.

The circuitry tolerates jitter on index signal, whatever the gating mode, as shown on Figure 225 .

In ungated mode, the signal must be strictly below two encoder periods. If the pulselength is greater or equal to two encoder periods, the counter is reset multiple times.

The timer supports the three gating options identically, without any specific programming needed. It is only necessary to define on which encoder state (for example channel A and

channel B state combination) the index must be synchronized, using the IPOS[1:0] bitfield in the TIMx_ECR register.

The index detection event acts differently depending on counting direction to ensure symmetrical operation during speed reversal:

This allows the index to be generated on the very same mechanical angular position whatever the counting direction. Figure 226 shows at which position is the index generated, for a simplistic example (an encoder providing four edges par mechanical rotation).

The timing diagram illustrates the relationship between encoder signals and the counter. - Channel A and Channel B are quadrature signals. - Index is high when both A and B are high (State 11). - DIR bit indicates direction (0 for up, 1 for down). - Counter : During up-counting (DIR=0), the counter increments (5, 6, 7) and resets to 0 at the start of the Index pulse. During down-counting (DIR=1), the counter decrements (6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1) and is set to 0 (or TIMx_ARR, here shown as 7) when exiting the Index pulse state.

Special first index event management

The FIDX bit in the TIMx_ECR register allows the index to be taken only once, as shown on Figure 234 . Once the first index has arrived, any subsequent index is ignored. If needed, the circuitry can be rearmed by writing the FIDX bit to 0 and setting it again to 1.

The index event can be blanked using the tim_ti3 or tim_ti4 inputs. During the blanking window, the index events are no longer resetting the counter, as shown on the Figure 235 below.

This mode is enabled using the IBLK[1:0] bitfield in the TIMx_ECR register, as following:

For both of these modes, the index sensitivity is set with the IPOS[0] bit as following:

The IPOS[1] bit is not-significant.

Encoder error management

For encoder configurations where two quadrature signals are available, it is possible to detect transition errors. The reading on the two inputs corresponds to a 2-bit gray code which can be represented as a state diagram, on Figure 238. A single bit is expected to change at once. An erroneous transition sets the TERRF interrupt flag in the TIMx_SR

status register. A transition error interrupt is generated if the TERRIE bit is set in the TIMx_DIER register.

Figure 238. State diagram for quadrature encoded signals

State diagram for quadrature encoded signals showing four states (00, 01, 10, 11) and their transitions.

The diagram illustrates the state transitions for quadrature encoded signals. It features four circular nodes arranged in a square, labeled 00 (top-left), 01 (top-right), 10 (bottom-left), and 11 (bottom-right). Solid double-headed arrows represent correct transitions between adjacent states: 00 to 01, 01 to 11, 11 to 10, and 10 to 00. Dashed double-headed arrows represent erroneous transitions between diagonal states: 00 to 11 and 10 to 01. A legend at the bottom left shows a solid double-headed arrow labeled 'Correct transitions' and a dashed double-headed arrow labeled 'Erroneous transitions'. The identifier MSV45779V1 is located in the bottom right corner of the diagram area.

State diagram for quadrature encoded signals showing four states (00, 01, 10, 11) and their transitions.

For encoder having an index signal, it is possible to detect abnormal operation resulting in an excess of pulses per revolution. An encoder with N pulses per revolution provides \( 4 \times N \) counts per revolution. The index signal resets the counter every \( 4 \times N \) clock periods.

If the counter value is incremented from TIMx_ARR to 0 or decremented from 0 to TIMx_ARR value without any index event, this is reported as an index position error.

The overflow threshold is programmed using the TIMx_ARR register. A 1000 lines encoder results in a counter value being between 0 and 3999 (in 4x reading mode). The overflow detection threshold must be programmed by setting \( \text{TIMx\_ARR} = 3999 + 1 = 4000 \) .

The error assertion is delayed to the transition 0 to 1 when in up-counting. This is cope with narrow index pulses in gated A and B mode, as shown on Figure 239 .

Figure 239. Up-counting encoder error detection

Timing diagram for up-counting encoder error detection showing two scenarios: one where an error is detected and another where an abort is triggered by an index pulse.

The figure consists of two timing diagrams illustrating encoder error detection in up-counting mode. Both diagrams show the following signals over time:

Top Diagram: The counter transitions from 7 to 0. At this transition, the Index signal goes high. An arrow labeled Error detected points to the 7-to-0 transition. Another arrow labeled Abort (index detection) points to the rising edge of the Index signal.

Bottom Diagram: The counter transitions from 7 to 0. At this transition, an arrow labeled Error detected points to it. Later, when the counter transitions from 0 to 1, the Index signal goes high. An arrow labeled Error asserted points to this rising edge, at which point the IERRF signal goes high.

Timing diagram for up-counting encoder error detection showing two scenarios: one where an error is detected and another where an abort is triggered by an index pulse.

In down-counting mode, the detection is conditioned by a preliminary transition from 1 to 0. This is to cope with narrow index pulses in gated A and B mode, as shown on Figure 240 , to avoid any false error detection in case the encoder dithers between TIMx_ARR and 0 immediately after the index detection.

Figure 240. Down-counting encode error detection

Timing diagram for down-counting encode error detection. The diagram is split into two horizontal sections. The top section shows a 'No error' scenario where the counter transitions from 0 to 7 after an index pulse. The bottom section shows an 'Error detected' scenario where the counter transitions from 0 to 7 without a preceding 1-to-0 transition on tim_ti1, causing the IERRF flag to be asserted.

The figure illustrates two timing scenarios for down-counting encode error detection. Both sections show the following signals over time:

The top section shows a 'No error' scenario where the counter transitions from 0 to 7 after an index pulse. The bottom section shows an 'Error detected' scenario where the counter transitions from 0 to 7 without a preceding 1-to-0 transition on tim_ti1, causing the IERRF flag to be asserted.

An index error sets the IERRF interrupt flag in the TIMx_SR status register. An index error interrupt is generated if the IERRIE bit is set in the TIMx_DIER register.

Functional encoder interrupts

The following interrupts are also available in encoder mode

Slave mode selection preload for run-time encoder mode update

It may be necessary to switch from one encoder mode to another during run-time. This is typically done at high-speed to decrease the update interrupt rate, by switching from x4 to x2 to x1 mode, as shown on Figure 241 .

For this purpose, the SMS[3:0] bit can be preloaded. This is enabled by setting the SMSPE enable bit in the TIMx_SMCR register. The trigger for the transfer from SMS[3:0] preload to active value can be selected with the SMSPS bit in the TIMx_SMCR register.

Figure 241. Encoder mode change with preload transferred on update (SMSPS = 0)

Timing diagram showing encoder mode change from x4 to x2 to x1 mode. The diagram illustrates the relationship between the encoder clock output, update events, preload values, and active values for the SMS[3:0] bits. The x4 mode has the highest frequency, followed by x2, then x1. Update events occur at the end of each mode transition. Preload values are set for each mode: SMS = 0011 for x4, SMS = 0001 for x2, and SMS = 1110 for x1. The active values are updated to match the preload values at each transition.

The figure is a timing diagram illustrating an encoder mode change. The top row shows the encoder clock output waveform, which is a square wave. The frequency of the clock decreases from left to right, corresponding to the modes x4, x2, and x1. The second row shows the 'Update event' signal, which is a pulse that occurs at the transition between modes. The third row shows the 'Preload value' for the SMS[3:0] bits, which is set to SMS = 0011 for x4 mode, SMS = 0001 for x2 mode, and SMS = 1110 for x1 mode. The fourth row shows the 'Active value' for the SMS[3:0] bits, which is updated to match the preload value at each transition. The diagram is labeled MSv45781V1.

Encoder clock output

The encoder mode operating principle is not perfectly suited for high-resolution velocity measurements, at low speed, as it requires a relatively long integration time to have a sufficient number of clock edges and a precise measurement.

At low speed, a better solution is to do an edge-to-edge clock period measurement. This can be achieved using a slave timer. The timer can output the encoder clock information on the tim_trgo output. The slave timer can then perform a period measurement and provide velocity information for each and every encoder clock edge.

This mode is enabled by setting the MMS[3:0] bitfield to 1000, in the TIMx_CR2 register. It is valid for the following SMS[3:0] values: 0001, 0010, 0011, 1010, 1011, 1100, 1101, 1110, 1111. Any other SMS[3:0] code is not allowed and may lead to unexpected behavior.

30.3.26 Direction bit output

It is possible to output a direction signal out of the timer, on the tim_oc3n and tim_oc4 output signals (copy of the DIR bit in the TIMx_CR1 register). This is achieved by setting the OC3M[3:0] or the OC4M[3:0] bitfield to 1011 in the TIMx_CCMR2 register.

This feature can be used for monitoring the counting direction (or rotation direction) in encoder mode, or to have a signal indicating the up/down phases in center-aligned PWM mode.

30.3.27 Clock drift measurement

It is possible to measure the drift between two clock sources using the directional clock encoder mode. This is useful for audio applications typically, when one needs to compute the drift between two streams.

To do so, a signal representing the rate of a first audio stream must be connected to tim_ti1 and a signal representing the rate of a second audio stream must be connected to tim_ti2. The signals representing the audio rates are generally the SAIx_FS_A, SAIx_FS_B, SPIx_WS or spdifrx_frame_sync (this list of signals is provided as example and depends on the audio peripheral availability for a given product line, as detailed on the product datasheet).

In this case, the clocks are present on both tim_ti1 and tim2 simultaneously, as shown on Figure 242 , and the counter value indicates the drift.

Let's define \( F_{\text{tim\_ti1}} \) and \( F_{\text{tim\_ti2}} \) the frequencies of the signals on tim_ti1 and tim_ti2. The counter value changes as following:

Figure 242. Clock drift measure using directional clock mode

Timing diagram showing clock drift measurement. The diagram displays two input signals, tim_ti1 and tim_ti2, and the resulting counter value over time. The diagram is divided into three regions: 1) F_tim_ti1 > F_tim_ti2, where the counter value increases from 0x0000 to 0x0002. 2) F_tim_ti1 = F_tim_ti2, where the counter value dithers between 0x0001 and 0x0002. 3) F_tim_ti1 < F_tim_ti2, where the counter value decreases from 0x0002 back towards 0x0000. The counter value is shown on the y-axis with labels 0x0002, 0x0001, 0x0000, 0xFFFF, and 0xFFFE. The diagram is labeled MSv67593V1.

30.3.28 UIF bit remapping

The IUFREMAP bit in the TIMx_CR1 register forces a continuous copy of the update interrupt flag UIF into the timer counter register's bit 31 (TIMxCNT[31]). This allows both the counter value and a potential roll-over condition signaled by the UIFCPY flag to be read in an atomic way. 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 UIF and UIFCPY flags assertion.

30.3.29 Timer input XOR function

The TI1S bit in the TIMx_CR2 register, allows the input filter of channel 1 to be connected to the output of an XOR gate, combining the three input pins tim_ti1, tim_ti2 and tim_ti3.

The XOR output can be used with all the timer input functions such as trigger or input capture. It is convenient to measure the interval between edges on two input signals, as per Figure 243 .

Figure 243. Measuring time interval between edges on three signals

Timing diagram showing three input signals (tim_ti1, tim_ti2, tim_ti3), their XOR output, and the resulting TIMx Counter output. The diagram illustrates how the XOR gate combines the three inputs to trigger the counter.

The figure is a timing diagram showing five horizontal lines representing signals over time. From top to bottom, they are labeled: tim_ti1, tim_ti2, tim_ti3, XOR, and TIMx Counter. Vertical dashed lines indicate specific time points.

The diagram demonstrates that the XOR gate's output can be used as a trigger for the timer counter to measure time intervals between signal changes.

30.3.30 Interfacing with Hall sensors

This is done using the advanced-control timers to generate PWM signals to drive the motor and another timer TIMx referred to as “interfacing timer” in Figure 244 . The “interfacing timer” captures the three timer input pins (tim_ti1, tim_ti2 and tim_ti3) connected through a XOR to the tim_ti1 input channel (selected by setting the TI1S bit in the TIMx_CR2 register).

The slave mode controller is configured in reset mode; the slave input is tim_ti1f_ed. Thus, each time one of the three inputs toggles, the counter restarts counting from 0. This creates a time base triggered by any change on the Hall inputs.

On the “interfacing timer”, capture/compare channel 1 is configured in capture mode, capture signal is tim_trc (See Figure 185 ). The captured value, which corresponds to the time elapsed between two changes on the inputs, gives information about motor speed.

The “interfacing timer” can be used in output mode to generate a pulse which changes the configuration of the channels of the advanced-control timer (by triggering a COM event). The advanced-control timer is used to generate PWM signals to drive the motor. To do this, the interfacing timer channel must be programmed so that a positive pulse is generated after a programmed delay (in output compare or PWM mode). This pulse is sent to the advanced-control timer through the tim_trgo output.

In this example the user wants to change the PWM configuration of the advanced-control timer after a programmed delay each time a change occurs on the Hall inputs connected to one of the TIMx timers.

In the advanced-control timer, the right tim_itrx input must be selected as trigger input, the timer is programmed to generate PWM signals, the capture/compare control signals are preloaded (CCPC = 1 in the TIMx_CR2 register) and the COM event is controlled by the trigger input (CCUS = 1 in the TIMx_CR2 register). The PWM control bits (CCxE, OCxM) are written after a COM event for the next step (this can be done in an interrupt subroutine generated by the rising edge of tim_oc2ref).

Figure 244 describes this example.

The diagram shows signals for tim_ti1, tim_ti2, tim_ti3 (Hall sensors), Counter (CNT) with CCR2, CCR1 with values C7A3, C7A8, C794, C7A5, C7AB, C796, tim_trgo = tim_oc2ref, COM, tim_oc1, tim_oc1n, tim_oc2, tim_oc2n, tim_oc3, and tim_oc3n.

The timing diagram illustrates the operation of a Hall sensor interface using the TIM1 advanced-control timer. The top three signals, tim_ti1, tim_ti2, and tim_ti3, represent the Hall sensor inputs. Below them, the Counter (CNT) is shown as a sawtooth wave, with the CCR2 register value indicated. The CCR1 register is shown with a sequence of values: C7A3, C7A8, C794, C7A5, C7AB, and C796.

30.3.31 Timer synchronization

The TIMx timers are linked together internally for timer synchronization or chaining. Refer to Section 31.4.24: Timer synchronization for details. They can be synchronized in several modes: Reset mode, Gated mode, Trigger mode, Reset + trigger, and gated + reset modes.

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 tim_ti1 input:

The counter starts counting on the internal clock, then behaves normally until tim_ti1 rising edge. When tim_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 autoreload register TIMx_ARR = 0x36. The delay between the rising edge on tim_ti1 and the actual reset of the counter is due to the resynchronization circuit on tim_ti1 input.

Figure 245. Control circuit in reset mode

Timing diagram for Figure 245. Control circuit in reset mode. The diagram shows five horizontal lines representing different signals over time. 1. tim_ti1: An input signal that is initially high, then goes low, and then has a rising edge. 2. Counter reset and update: A signal that is initially low, then goes high at the rising edge of tim_ti1, and then goes low again. 3. tim_cnt_ck, tim_psc_ck: A periodic clock signal. 4. Counter register: A series of boxes showing the counter values. The values are 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 00, 01, 02, 03, 00, 01, 02, 03. The values 30 through 36 are shown before the rising edge of tim_ti1. The values 00 through 03 are shown after the rising edge. 5. TIF: A flag signal that is initially low, then goes high at the rising edge of tim_ti1, and then goes low again. Vertical dashed lines indicate the timing of the rising edge of tim_ti1 and the corresponding changes in the other signals. The diagram is labeled MSv62361V1 in the bottom right corner.

Vertical dashed lines indicate the timing of the rising edge of tim_ti1 and the corresponding changes in the other signals. The diagram is labeled MSv62361V1 in the bottom right corner.

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 tim_ti1 input is low:

The counter starts counting on the internal clock as long as tim_ti1 is low and stops as soon as tim_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 tim_ti1 and the actual stop of the counter is due to the resynchronization circuit on tim_ti1 input.

Figure 246. Control circuit in Gated mode

Timing diagram for Figure 246. Control circuit in Gated mode. The diagram shows five signals over time: tim_ti1, Counter enable, tim_cnt_ck, tim_psc_ck, Counter register, and TIF. The tim_ti1 signal is low initially, then goes high, then low again, then high again. The Counter enable signal is high only when tim_ti1 is low. The tim_cnt_ck and tim_psc_ck signals are periodic square waves that stop when Counter enable is low. The Counter register shows values 30, 31, 32, 33, 34, 35, 36, 37, 38. The counter increments while Counter enable is high. The TIF signal is set when the counter starts or stops. 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 tim_ti2 input:

When a rising edge occurs on tim_ti2 , the counter starts counting on the internal clock and the TIF flag is set.

The delay between the rising edge on tim_ti2 and the actual start of the counter is due to the resynchronization circuit on tim_ti2 input.

A vertical dashed line marks the start of the counter. Before the dashed line, tim_ti2 is high, Counter enable is low, tim_cnt_ck and tim_psc_ck are low, and the Counter register is at 34. At the dashed line, tim_ti2 falls, Counter enable rises, tim_cnt_ck and tim_psc_ck become square waves, and the Counter register increments to 35, 36, 37, and 38. TIF is low throughout the diagram.

MSv62363V1 is noted in the bottom right corner.

Slave mode: Combined reset + trigger mode

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

This mode is used for One-pulse mode.

Slave mode: Combined gated + reset mode

The counter clock is enabled when the trigger input (tim_trgi) is high. The counter stops and is reset) as soon as the trigger becomes low. Both start and stop of the counter are controlled.

This mode is used to detect out-of-range PWM signal (duty cycle exceeding a maximum expected value).

Slave mode: external clock mode 2 + trigger mode

The external clock mode 2 can be used in addition to another slave mode (except external clock mode 1 and encoder mode). In this case, the tim_etr_in signal is used as external clock input, and another input can be selected as trigger input (in reset mode, gated mode or trigger mode). It is recommended not to select tim_etr_in as tim_trgi through the TS bits of TIMx_SMCR register.

In the following example, the upcounter is incremented at each rising edge of the tim_etr_in signal as soon as a rising edge of tim_ti1 occurs:

  1. 1. Configure the external trigger input circuit by programming the TIMx_SMCR register as follows:
    • ETF = 0000 : no filter
    • ETPS = 00 : prescaler disabled
    • ETP = 0 : detection of rising edges on tim_etr_in and ECE = 1 to enable the external clock mode 2.
  2. 2. Configure the channel 1 as follows, to detect rising edges on TI:
    • IC1F = 0000 : no filter.
    • – The capture prescaler is not used for triggering and does not need to be configured.
    • CC1S = 01 in TIMx_CCMR1 register to select only the input capture source
    • CC1P = 0 and CC1NP = 0 in TIMx_CCER register to validate the polarity (and detect rising edge only).
  3. 3. Configure the timer in trigger mode by writing SMS = 110 in TIMx_SMCR register. Select tim_ti1 as the input source by writing TS = 00101 in TIMx_SMCR register.

A rising edge on tim_ti1 enables the counter and sets the TIF flag. The counter then counts on tim_etr_in rising edges.

The delay between the rising edge of the tim_etr_in signal and the actual reset of the counter is due to the resynchronization circuit on tim_etrp input.

Figure 248. Control circuit in external clock mode 2 + trigger mode

Timing diagram for Figure 248 showing the relationship between tim_ti1, Counter enable, ETR, tim_cnt_ck, Counter register, and TIF signals.

The timing diagram illustrates the operation of the timer in external clock mode 2 with trigger mode. It shows the following signals over time:

The diagram includes vertical dashed lines indicating key timing events: the first rising edge of tim_ti1 (start of counting), the first rising edge of ETR after tim_ti1 goes high (count 34 to 35), and the second rising edge of tim_ti1 (end of counting). The text "MSV62364V1" is visible in the bottom right corner of the diagram area.

Timing diagram for Figure 248 showing the relationship between tim_ti1, Counter enable, ETR, tim_cnt_ck, Counter register, and TIF signals.

Note: The clock of the slave peripherals (such as timer, ADC) receiving the tim_trgo or the tim_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.

30.3.32 ADC triggers

The timer can generate an ADC triggering event with various internal signals, such as reset, enable or compare events. It is also possible to generate a pulse issued by internal edge detectors, such as:

The triggers are issued on the tim_trgo2 internal line which is redirected to the ADC. There is a total of 16 possible events, which can be selected using the MMS2[3:0] bits in the TIMx_CR2 register.

An example of an application for 3-phase motor drives is given in Figure 200 .

Note: The clock of the slave peripherals (timer, ADC, ...) receiving the tim_trgo or the tim_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.

The clock of the ADC must be enabled prior to receive events from the master timer, and must not be changed on-the-fly while triggers are received from the timer.

30.3.33 ADC synchronization

The timer operation can be synchronized to the ADC clock to trigger jitter-free ADC sampling. This function is enabled using the ADSYNC bit in the TIMx_CR2 register.

This feature is useful when the timers and the ADCs are operating with semisynchronous clocks (clocks derived from a same source with integer ratio tim_ker_ck/adc_ker_ck ), for instance adc_ker_ck = 75 MHz and tim_ker_ck = 150 MHz or 300 MHz.

ADSYNC must also be set when both peripherals are operating at the same frequency from the same clock source, when jitter-free operation is needed.

ADSYNC must not be set and jitter-free operation is not supported in the following cases:

When ADSYNC = 1, the timer operation is slightly changed: the counter enable and counter reset events are aligned to the adc_ker_ck ADC clock, to avoid any phase shift due to clocks enable in the RCC.

Jitter-free operation is guaranteed only when one of the two requirements below is met (depending on the selected trigger source).

  1. 1. The counter period must be a multiple of the ADC clock period:

\[ (TIMx_PSC + 1) \times (TIMx_ARR + 1) \times T_{\text{tim\_ker\_ck}} = n \times T_{\text{adc\_ker\_ck}} \]

  1. 2. The compare value must be a multiple of the ADC clock period:

\[ (TIMx_PSC + 1) \times TIMx_CMPy \times T_{\text{tim\_ker\_ck}} = m \times T_{\text{adc\_ker\_ck}} \]

Note: If none of the two above requirements are met, the trigger is still generated, but the latency is not constant and varies with the timer and ADC clocks phase shift.

Programming guidelines

The ADC synchronization feature must not be modified during run-time, once the counter is enabled and once the ADC has been configured for receiving triggers from the timer.

It is mandatory to follow the procedure below to use the ADC synchronization:

  1. 1. Enable the destination ADC clock.
  2. 2. Configure the timer and set the ADSYNC bit.
  3. 3. Configure the ADC and enable it (using ADSTART and/or JADSTART bits).
  4. 4. Start the timer (with the CEN counter enable bit).

30.3.34 DMA burst mode

The TIMx timers have the capability to generate multiple DMA requests upon a single event. The main purpose is to be able to reprogram part of the timer 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 register 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

The DBSS[3:0] bits in the TIMx_DCR register defines the interrupt source that triggers the DMA burst transfers (see Section 30.6.29: TIM1 DMA control register (TIM1_DCR) for details).

As an example, the timer DMA burst feature is used to update the contents of the CCRx registers (x = 2, 3, 4) upon 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 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 bitfields as follows: DBL = 3 transfers, DBA = 0xE and DBSS = 1.
  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 to be updated once. If every CCRx register is to be updated twice for example, the number of data to transfer must 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.

30.3.35 TIM1 DMA requests

The TIM1 can generate a DMA request, as shown in the table below.

30.3.36 Debug mode

When the microcontroller enters debug mode (core core halted), the TIMx counter can either continue to work normally or stop, depending on DBG_TIMx_STOP configuration bit in DBG module.

The behavior in debug mode can be programmed with a dedicated configuration bit per timer in the Debug support (DBG) module.

For safety purposes, when the counter is stopped, 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), typically to force a Hi-Z.

For more details, refer to section Debug support (DBG).

Bits 6:5 CMS[1:0] : Center-aligned mode selection

00: Edge-aligned mode. The counter counts up or down depending on the direction bit (DIR).

01: Center-aligned mode 1. The counter counts up and down alternatively. Output compare interrupt flags of channels configured in output (CCxS = 00 in TIMx_CCMRx register) are set only when the counter is counting down.

10: Center-aligned mode 2. The counter counts up and down alternatively. Output compare interrupt flags of channels configured in output (CCxS = 00 in TIMx_CCMRx register) are set only when the counter is counting up.

11: Center-aligned mode 3. The counter counts up and down alternatively. Output compare interrupt flags of channels configured in output (CCxS = 00 in TIMx_CCMRx register) are set both when the counter is counting up or down.

Note: It is not allowed to switch from edge-aligned mode to center-aligned mode as long as the counter is enabled (CEN = 1)

Bit 4 DIR : Direction

Note: This bit is read only when the timer is configured in Center-aligned mode or Encoder mode.

Bit 3 OPM : One-pulse mode

Bit 2 URS : Update request source

This bit is set and cleared by software to select the UEV event sources.

0: Any of the following events generate an update interrupt or DMA request if enabled.
These events can be:

1: Only counter overflow/underflow generates an update interrupt or DMA request if enabled.

Bit 1 UDIS : Update disable

Bit 28 ADSYNC : ADC synchronization

0: The timer operates independently from the ADC

1: The timer operation is synchronized with the ADC clock to provide jitter-free sampling point. This mode can be enabled only with specific ADC / timer clock relationship. Refer to Section 30.3.33 for requirements.

The ADSYNC must not modified when the counter is enabled (CEN bit is set).

Bits 27:26 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.

Bit 24 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.

Bits 23:20 MMS2[3:0] : Master mode selection 2

These bits allow the information to be sent to ADC for synchronization (tim_trgo2) to be selected. The combination is as follows:

0000: Reset - the UG bit from the TIMx_EGR register is used as trigger output (tim_trgo2). If the reset is generated by the trigger input (slave mode controller configured in reset mode), the signal on tim_trgo2 is delayed compared to the actual reset.

0001: Enable - the Counter Enable signal CNT_EN is used as trigger output (tim_trgo2). It is useful to start several timers at the same time or to control a window in which a slave timer is enabled. The Counter Enable signal is generated by a logic AND between the CEN control bit and the trigger input when configured in Gated mode. When the Counter Enable signal is controlled by the trigger input, there is a delay on tim_trgo2, except if the Master/Slave mode is selected (see the MSM bit description in TIMx_SMCR register).

0010: Update - the update event is selected as trigger output (tim_trgo2). For instance, a master timer can then be used as a prescaler for a slave timer.

1000: Compare - tim_oc5refc signal is used as trigger output (tim_trgo2)

1001: Compare - tim_oc6refc signal is used as trigger output (tim_trgo2)

1010: Compare Pulse - tim_oc4refc rising or falling edges generate pulses on tim_trgo2

1011: Compare pulse - tim_oc6refc rising or falling edges generate pulses on tim_trgo2

1100: Compare pulse - tim_oc4refc or tim_oc6refc rising edges generate pulses on tim_trgo2

1101: Compare pulse - tim_oc4refc rising or tim_oc6refc falling edges generate pulses on tim_trgo2

1110: Compare pulse - tim_oc5refc or tim_oc6refc rising edges generate pulses on tim_trgo2

1111: Compare pulse - tim_oc5refc rising or tim_oc6refc falling edges generate pulses on tim_trgo2

Note: The clock of the slave timer or ADC must be enabled prior to receive events from the master timer, and must not be changed on-the-fly while triggers are received from the master timer.

Bits 25, 6:4 MMS[3:0] : Master mode selection

These bits select the information to be sent in master mode to slave timers for synchronization (tim_trgo). The combination is as follows:

0000: Reset - the UG bit from the TIMx_EGR register is used as trigger output (tim_trgo). If the reset is generated by the trigger input (slave mode controller configured in reset mode) then the signal on tim_trgo is delayed compared to the actual reset.

0001: Enable - the Counter Enable signal CNT_EN is used as trigger output (tim_trgo). It is useful to start several timers at the same time or to control a window in which a slave timer is enable. The Counter Enable signal is generated by a logic AND between CEN control bit and the trigger input when configured in gated mode. When the Counter Enable signal is controlled by the trigger input, there is a delay on tim_trgo, except if the master/slave mode is selected (see the MSM bit description in TIMx_SMCR register).

Other codes reserved

Note: The clock of the slave timer or ADC must be enabled prior to receive events from the master timer, and must not be changed on-the-fly while triggers are received from the master timer.

Bit 3 CCDS : Capture/compare DMA selection

0: CCx DMA request sent when CCx event occurs

1: CCx DMA requests sent when update event occurs

Bit 2 CCUS : Capture/compare control update selection

0: When capture/compare control bits are preloaded (CCPC = 1), they are updated by setting the COMG bit only

1: When capture/compare control bits are preloaded (CCPC = 1), they are updated by setting the COMG bit or when an rising edge occurs on tim_trgi

Note: This bit acts only on channels that have a complementary output.

Bit 1 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.

Refer to TS[2:0] description - bits 6:4

Bits 19:17 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.

Bit 15 ETP : External trigger polarity

This bit selects whether tim_etr_in or tim_etr_in is used for trigger operations

0: tim_etr_in is non-inverted, active at high level or rising edge.

1: tim_etr_in is inverted, active at low level or falling edge.

Bit 14 ECE : External clock enable

This bit enables External clock mode 2.

0: External clock mode 2 disabled

1: External clock mode 2 enabled. The counter is clocked by any active edge on the tim_etrf signal.

Note: Setting the ECE bit has the same effect as selecting external clock mode 1 with tim_trgi connected to tim_etrf (SMS = 111 and TS = 00111). It is possible to simultaneously use external clock mode 2 with the following slave modes: reset mode, gated mode and trigger mode. Nevertheless, tim_trgi must not be connected to tim_etrf in this case (TS bits must not be 00111). If external clock mode 1 and external clock mode 2 are enabled at the same time, the external clock input is tim_etrf. Bits 13:12 ETPS[1:0] : External trigger prescaler

External trigger signal tim_etrp frequency must be at most 1/4 of TIMxCLK frequency. A prescaler can be enabled to reduce tim_etrp frequency. It is useful when inputting fast external clocks on tim_etr_in.

00: Prescaler OFF

01: tim_etr_in frequency divided by 2

10: tim_etr_in frequency divided by 4

11: tim_etr_in frequency divided by 8

Bits 11:8 ETF[3:0] : External trigger filter

This bitfield then defines the frequency used to sample tim_etrp signal and the length of the digital filter applied to tim_etrp. The digital filter is made of an event counter in which N consecutive events are needed to validate a transition on the output:

0000: No filter, sampling is done at \( f_{DTS} \)

0001: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{tim\_ker\_ck} \) , N = 2

0010: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{tim\_ker\_ck} \) , N = 4

0011: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{tim\_ker\_ck} \) , N = 8

0100: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/2 \) , N = 6

0101: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/2 \) , N = 8

0110: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/4 \) , N = 6

0111: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/4 \) , N = 8

1000: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/8 \) , N = 6

1001: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/8 \) , N = 8

1010: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/16 \) , N = 5

1011: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/16 \) , N = 6

1100: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/16 \) , N = 8

1101: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/32 \) , N = 5

1110: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/32 \) , N = 6

1111: \( f_{SAMPLING} = f_{DTS}/32 \) , N = 8

Bit 7 MSM : Master/slave mode

0: No action

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

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

Others: Reserved

See Table 273: Internal trigger connection for more details on tim_itr x meaning for each Timer.

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

Bit 3 OCCS : OREF clear selection

This bit is used to select the OREF clear source.

0: tim_ocref_clr_int is connected to the tim_ocref_clr input

1: tim_ocref_clr_int is connected to tim_etrf

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

When external signals are selected the active edge of the trigger signal (tim_trgi) is linked to the polarity selected on the external input (refer to ETP bit in TIMx_SMCR for tim_etr_in and CCxP/CCxNP bits in TIMx_CCER register for tim_ti1fp1 and tim_ti2fp2).

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

0001: Quadrature encoder mode 1, x2 mode- Counter counts up/down on tim_ti1fp1 edge depending on tim_ti2fp2 level.

0010: Quadrature encoder mode 2, x2 mode - Counter counts up/down on tim_ti2fp2 edge depending on tim_ti1fp1 level.

0011: Quadrature encoder mode 3, x4 mode - Counter counts up/down on both tim_ti1fp1 and tim_ti2fp2 edges depending on the level of the other input.

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

0101: Gated mode - The counter clock is enabled when the trigger input (tim_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 tim_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 (tim_trgi) clock the counter.

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

1001: Combined gated + reset mode - The counter clock is enabled when the trigger input (tim_trgi) is high. The counter stops (and is reset) as soon as the trigger becomes low. Both start and stop of the counter are controlled.

1010: Encoder mode: Clock plus direction, x2 mode.

1011: Encoder mode: Clock plus direction, x1 mode, tim_ti2fp2 edge sensitivity is set by CC2P

1100: Encoder mode: Directional Clock, x2 mode.

1101: Encoder mode: Directional Clock, x1 mode, tim_ti1fp1 and tim_ti2fp2 edge sensitivity is set by CC1P and CC2P.

1110: Quadrature encoder mode: x1 mode, counting on tim_ti1fp1 edges only, edge sensitivity is set by CC1P.

1111: Quadrature encoder mode: x1 mode, counting on tim_ti2fp2 edges only, edge sensitivity is set by CC2P.

Note: The gated mode must not be used if tim_ti1f_ed is selected as the trigger input (TS = 00100). Indeed, tim_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 tim_trgo or the tim_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.

Note: CC2S bits are writable only when the channel is OFF (CC2E = 0 in TIMx_CCER).

Bit 7 OC1CE : Output compare 1 clear enable

0: tim_oc1ref is not affected by the tim_ocref_clr_int signal

1: tim_oc1ref is cleared as soon as a High level is detected on tim_ocref_clr_int signal
(tim_ocref_clr input or tim_etrfr input)

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

These bits define the behavior of the output reference signal tim_oc1ref from which tim_oc1 and tim_oc1n are derived. tim_oc1ref is active high whereas tim_oc1 and tim_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. This mode can be used when the timer serves as a software timebase. When the frozen mode is enabled during timer operation, the output keeps the state (active or inactive) it had before entering the frozen state.

0001: Set channel 1 to active level on match. tim_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. tim_oc1ref signal is forced low when the counter TIMx_CNT matches the capture/compare register 1 (TIMx_CCR1).

0011: Toggle - tim_oc1ref toggles when TIMx_CNT = TIMx_CCR1.

0100: Force inactive level - tim_oc1ref is forced low.

0101: Force active level - tim_oc1ref is forced high.

0110: PWM mode 1 - In upcounting, channel 1 is active as long as TIMx_CNT < TIMx_CCR1 else inactive. In downcounting, channel 1 is inactive (tim_oc1ref = 0) as long as TIMx_CNT > TIMx_CCR1 else active (tim_oc1ref = 1).

0111: PWM mode 2 - In upcounting, channel 1 is inactive as long as TIMx_CNT < TIMx_CCR1 else active. In downcounting, channel 1 is active as long as TIMx_CNT > TIMx_CCR1 else inactive.

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

1001: Retriggerable OPM mode 2 - In up-counting mode, the channel is inactive until a trigger event is detected (on tim_trgi signal). Then, a comparison is performed as in PWM mode 2 and the channel becomes inactive again at the next update. In down-counting mode, the channel is active until a trigger event is detected (on tim_trgi signal). Then, a comparison is performed as in PWM mode 1 and the channel becomes active again at the next update.

1010: Reserved,

1011: Reserved,

1100: Combined PWM mode 1 - tim_oc1ref has the same behavior as in PWM mode 1. tim_oc1refc is the logical OR between tim_oc1ref and tim_oc2ref.

1101: Combined PWM mode 2 - tim_oc1ref has the same behavior as in PWM mode 2. tim_oc1refc is the logical AND between tim_oc1ref and tim_oc2ref.

1110: Asymmetric PWM mode 1 - tim_oc1ref has the same behavior as in PWM mode 1. tim_oc1refc outputs tim_oc1ref when the counter is counting up, tim_oc2ref when it is counting down.

1111: Asymmetric PWM mode 2 - tim_oc1ref has the same behavior as in PWM mode 2. tim_oc1refc outputs tim_oc1ref when the counter is counting up, tim_oc2ref when it is counting down.

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).

Note: In PWM mode, the OCREF level changes when the result of the comparison changes, when the output compare mode switches from "frozen" mode to "PWM" mode and when the output compare mode switches from "force active/inactive" mode to "PWM" mode.

Note: On channels having a complementary output, this bitfield 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.

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).

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 from 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 bitfield defines the direction of the channel (input/output) as well as the used input.

00: CC1 channel is configured as output

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

1001: Retriggerable OPM mode 2 - In up-counting mode, the channel is inactive until a trigger event is detected (on tim_trgi signal). Then, a comparison is performed as in PWM mode 2 and the channels becomes inactive again at the next update. In down-counting mode, the channel is active until a trigger event is detected (on tim_trgi signal). Then, a comparison is performed as in PWM mode 1 and the channels becomes active again at the next update.

1010: Pulse on compare: a pulse is generated on tim_oc3ref upon CCR3 match event, as per PWPRSC[2:0] and PW[7:0] bitfields programming in TIMx_ECR.

1011: Direction output. The tim_oc3ref signal is overridden by a copy of the DIR bit.

1100: Combined PWM mode 1 - tim_oc3ref has the same behavior as in PWM mode 1. tim_oc3refc is the logical OR between tim_oc3ref and tim_oc4ref.

1101: Combined PWM mode 2 - tim_oc3ref has the same behavior as in PWM mode 2. tim_oc3refc is the logical AND between tim_oc3ref and tim_oc4ref.

1110: Asymmetric PWM mode 1 - tim_oc3ref has the same behavior as in PWM mode 1. tim_oc3refc outputs tim_oc3ref when the counter is counting up, tim_oc4ref when it is counting down.

1111: Asymmetric PWM mode 2 - tim_oc3ref has the same behavior as in PWM mode 2. tim_oc3refc outputs tim_oc3ref when the counter is counting up, tim_oc4ref when it is counting down.

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).

Note: 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 having a complementary output, this bitfield is preloaded. If the CCPC bit is set in the TIMx_CR2 register then the OC3M active bits take the new value from the preloaded bits only when a COM event is generated.

Bit 3 OC3PE : Output compare 3 preload enable

Bit 2 OC3FE : Output compare 3 fast enable

Bits 1:0 CC3S[1:0] : Capture/compare 3 selection

This bitfield defines the direction of the channel (input/output) as well as the used input.

00: CC3 channel is configured as output

01: CC3 channel is configured as input, tim_ic3 is mapped on tim_ti3

10: CC3 channel is configured as input, tim_ic3 is mapped on tim_ti4

11: CC3 channel is configured as input, tim_ic3 is mapped on tim_trc. This mode is working only if an internal trigger input is selected through TS bit (TIMx_SMCR register)

Note: CC3S bits are writable only when the channel is OFF (CC3E = 0 in TIMx_CCER).

Bit 3 CC1NP : Capture/compare 1 complementary output polarity

CC1 channel configured as output:

0: tim_oc1n active high.

1: tim_oc1n active low.

CC1 channel configured as input:

This bit is used in conjunction with CC1P to define the polarity of tim_ti1fp1 and tim_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 (channel configured as output).

Note: On channels having 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 - tim_oc1n is not active. tim_oc1n level is then function of MOE, OSSI, OSSR, OIS1, OIS1N and CC1E bits.

1: On - tim_oc1n signal is output on the corresponding output pin depending on MOE, OSSI, OSSR, OIS1, OIS1N and CC1E bits.

Note: On channels having a complementary output, this bit is preloaded. If the CCPC bit is set in the TIMx_CR2 register then the CC1NE active bit takes the new value from the preloaded bit only when a Commutation event is generated.

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: the 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).

Note: On channels having 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 288 for details.

Note: On channels having a complementary output, this bit is preloaded. If the CCPC bit is set in the TIMx_CR2 register then the CC1E active bit takes the new value from the preloaded bit only when a Commutation event is generated.

Bits 31:30 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.

Bit 29 BK2BID : Break2 bidirectional

Refer to BKBID description

Bit 28 BKBID : Break bidirectional

0: Break input tim_brk in input mode

1: Break input tim_brk in bidirectional mode

In the bidirectional mode (BKBID bit set to 1), the break input is configured both in input mode and in open drain output mode. Any active break event asserts a low logic level on the Break input to indicate an internal break event to external devices.

Note: This bit cannot be modified as long as 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 27 BK2DSRM : Break2 disarm

Refer to BKDSRM description

Bit 26 BKDSRM : Break disarm

0: Break input tim_brk is armed

1: Break input tim_brk is disarmed

This bit is cleared by hardware when no break source is active.

The BKDSRM bit must be set by software to release the bidirectional output control (open-drain output in Hi-Z state) and then be polled it until it is reset by hardware, indicating that the fault condition has disappeared.

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

Bit 25 BK2P : Break 2 polarity

0: Break input tim_brk2 is active low

1: Break input tim_brk2 is active high

Bits 23:20 BK2F[3:0] : Break 2 filter

This bitfield defines the frequency used to sample tim_brk2 input and the length of the digital filter applied to tim_brk2. The digital filter is made of an event counter in which N consecutive events are needed to validate a transition on the output:

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

Bits 19:16 BKF[3:0] : Break filter

This bitfield defines the frequency used to sample tim_brk input and the length of the digital filter applied to tim_brk. The digital filter is made of an event counter in which N consecutive events are needed to validate a transition on the output:

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

Bit 15 MOE: Main output enable

This bit is cleared asynchronously by hardware as soon as one of the break inputs is active (tim_brk or tim_brk2). 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: In response to a break 2 event. OC and OCN outputs are disabled

In response to a break event or if MOE is written to 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 30.6.11: TIM1 capture/compare enable register (TIM1_CCER) ).

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 none of the break inputs tim_brk and tim_brk2 is 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 tim_brk is active low

1: Break input tim_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).

This bit enables the complete break protection (including all sources connected to tim_sys_brk and BKIN sources, as per Figure 205: Break and Break2 circuitry overview ).

0: Break function disabled

1: Break function enabled

Note: 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 having 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 30.6.11: TIM1 capture/compare enable register (TIM1_CCER) ).

0: When inactive, OC/OCN outputs are disabled (the timer releases the output control which is taken over by the GPIO 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 due to a break event or by a software write, on channels configured as outputs.
See OC/OCN enable description for more details ( Section 30.6.11: TIM1 capture/compare enable register (TIM1_CCER) ).
0: When inactive, OC/OCN outputs are disabled (the timer releases the output control which is taken over by the GPIO logic and which imposes a Hi-Z state).
1: When inactive, OC/OCN outputs are first forced with their inactive level then forced to their idle level after the deadtime. The timer maintains its control over the output.

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 BKBID/BK2BID/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 bitfield 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,
32 µs to 63 µs by 1 µs steps,
64 µs to 126 µs by 2 µs steps

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

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

Bits 19:16 DBSS[3:0] : DMA burst source selection

This bitfield defines the interrupt source that triggers the DMA burst transfers (the timer recognizes a burst transfer when a read or a write access is done to the TIMx_DMAR address).

0000: Reserved

0001: Update

0010: CC1

0011: CC2

0100: CC3

0101: CC4

0110: COM

0111: Trigger

Others: reserved

Bits 15:13 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.

Bits 12:8 DBL[4:0] : DMA burst length

This 5-bit vector defines the length of DMA transfers (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. Transfers can be in half-words or in bytes (see example below).

00000: 1 transfer

00001: 2 transfers

00010: 3 transfers

...

11010: 26 transfers

Example: Let us consider the following transfer: DBL = 7 bytes & DBA = TIM2_CR1.

–If DBL = 7 bytes and DBA = TIM2_CR1 represents the address of the byte to be transferred, the address of the transfer is given by the following equation:

(TIMx_CR1 address) + DBA + (DMA index), where DMA index = DBL

In this example, 7 bytes are added to (TIMx_CR1 address) + DBA, which gives us the address from/to which the data are copied. In this case, the transfer is done to 7 registers starting from the following address: (TIMx_CR1 address) + DBA

According to the configuration of the DMA Data Size, several cases may occur:

–If the DMA Data Size is configured in half-words, 16-bit data are transferred to each of the 7 registers.

–If the DMA Data Size is configured in bytes, the data are also transferred to 7 registers: the first register contains the first MSB byte, the second register, the first LSB byte and so on.

So with the transfer Timer, one also has to specify the size of data transferred by DMA.

Bits 7:5 Reserved, must be kept at reset value.

Bits 4:0 DBA[4:0] : DMA base address

This 5-bits vector defines the 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

...

Bits 31:0 DMAB[31:0] : DMA register for burst accesses

A read or write operation to the DMAR register accesses the register located at the address:
(TIMx_CR1 address) + (DBA + DMA index) x 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).
