overview AN4013 6/37 docid022500 rev 4 1 overview stm32 devices use various types of timers, with the following features for each: ? general-purpose timers are used in any application for output compare (timing and delay generation), one-pulse mode, input capture (for external signal frequency measurement), sensor interface (encoder, hall sensor)... ? advanced timers : these timers have the most features. in addition to general purpose functions, they include several features related to motor control and digital power conversion applications: three complementary signals with deadtime insertion, emergency shut-down input. ? one or two channel timers : used as general-purpose timers with a limited number of channels. ? one or two channel timers with complementary output : same as previous type, but having a deadtime generator on one channel. this allows having complementary signals with a time base independent from the advanced timers. ? basic timers have no input/outputs and are used either as timebase timers or for triggering the dac peripheral. table 2 summarizes the stm32 family timers. table 3 presents a general overview of timer features.

docid022500 rev 4 9/37 AN4013 general-purpose timer modes 36 2 general-purpose timer modes general-purpose timers can be programmed to work in one of the following configurations. 2.1 clock input sources the timer can be synchronized by several clocks simultaneously: ? internal clock ? external clock ? external mode1 (ti1 or ti2 pins) ? external clock mode2 (etr pin) ? internal trigger clock (itrx) 2.1.1 internal clock the timer is clocked by default by the internal clock provided from the rcc. to select this clock source, the smcr_sms (if present) bits should be reset. 2.1.2 external clock the external clock timer is divided in two categories: ? external clock connected to ti1 or ti2 pins ? external clock connected to etr pin in these cases, the clock is provided by an external signal connected to tix pins or etr pin. the maximum external clock frequency should be verified. note: 1 in addition to all these clock sources, the timer should be clocked with the apbx clock. 2 the external clocks are not directly feeding the prescaler, but they are first synchronized with the apbx clock through dedicated logical blocks. external clock mode1 (ti1 or ti2 pins) in this mode the external clock will be applied on timer input ti1 pin or ti2 pin. to do this: 1. configure the timers to use the tix pin as input: a) select the pin to be used by writing ccxs bits in the timx_ccmr1 register. b) select the polarity of the input: for the stm32f100/101/102/103/105/107 lines: by writing ccxp in the timx_ccer register to select the rising or the falling edge; for the other series & lines: by writing ccxp and ccxnp in the timx_ccer register to select the rising/falling edge, or both edges (a) . a. for the stm32f100/101/102/103/105/107 lines, polarity selection for both edges can be achieved by using ti1f_ed, but only for ti1 input.
general-purpose timer modes AN4013 10/37 docid022500 rev 4 c) enable the corresponding channel by setting the ccex bit in the timx_ccer register. 2. select the timer tix as the trigger input source by writing ts bits in the timx_smcr register. 3. select the external clock mode1 by writing sms=111 in the timx_smcr register. external clock mode2 (etr pin) the external clock mode2 uses the etr pin as timer input clock. to use this feature: 1. select the external clock mode2 by writing ece = 1 in the timx_smcr register. 2. configure, if needed, the prescaler, the filter and the polarity by writing etps [1:0], etf [3:0] and etp in the timx_smcr register. internal trigger clock (itrx) this is a particular mode of timer synchronization. when using one timer as a prescaler for another timer, the first timer update event or output compare signal is used as a clock for the second one. 2.2 time base generator the timer can be used as a time base generator. depending on the clock, prescaler and auto reload, repetition counter (if present) parameters, the 16-bit timer can generate an update event from a nanosecond to a few minutes. for the 32-bit timer, the range is larger. example update event period the update event period is calculated as follows: update_event = tim_clk/((psc + 1)*(arr + 1)*(rcr + 1)) tim_clk = 72 mhz prescaler = 1 auto reload = 65535 no repetition counter rcr = 0 update_event = 72*106/((1 + 1)*(65535 + 1)*(1)) update_event = 549.3 hz where: tim_clk = timer clock input psc = 16-bit prescaler register arr = 16/32-bit autoreload register rcr = 16-bit repetition counter
docid022500 rev 4 11/37 AN4013 general-purpose timer modes 36 example external clock mode2 in this mode, the update event period is calculated as follows: update_event = etr_clk/((etr_psc)*(psc + 1)*(arr + 1)*(rcr + 1)) where etr_clk = the external clock frequency connected to etr pin. etr_clk = 100 khz prescaler = 1 etr_psc = 2 autoreload = 255 repetition counter = 2 update_event= 100*103/((2 + 1)* (1+ 1)*((255 + 1)*(2 + 1)) update_event = 21.7 hz example external clock mode1 in this mode, the update event period is calculated as follows: update_event = tix_clk/((psc + 1)*(arr + 1)*(rcr +1)) where tix_clk = the external clock frequency connected to ti1 pin or ti2 pin. tix_clk = 50 khz prescaler = 1 auto reload = 255 repetition counter = 2 update_event = 50 000/((1+ 1)*((255 + 1)*(2 + 1)) update_event = 32.55 hz example internal trigger clock (itrx) mode1 in this mode, the update event period is calculated as follows: update_event = itrx_clk/((psc + 1)*(arr + 1)*(rcr + 1)) where itrx_clk = the internal trigger frequency mapped to timer trigger input (trgi) itrx_clk = 8 khz prescaler = 1 auto reload = 255 repetition counter = 1 update_event = 8000/((1+ 1)*((255 + 1)*(1 + 1)) update_event = 7.8 hz depending on the counter mode, the update event is generated each: ? overflow, if up counting mode is used: the dir bit is reset in timx_cr1 register ? underflow, if down counting mode is used: the dir bit is set in timx_cr1 register ? overflow and underflow, if center aligned mode is used: the cms bits are different from zero.
general-purpose timer modes AN4013 12/37 docid022500 rev 4 the update event is generated also by: ? software, if the ug (update generation) bit is set in tim_egr register. ? update generation through the slave mode controller as the buffered registers (arr, psc, ccrx) need an update event to be loaded with their preload values, set the urs (update request source) to 1 to avoid the update flag each time these values are loaded. in this case, the update event is only generated if the counter overflow/underflow occurs. the update event can be also disabled by setting the bit udis (update disable) in the cr1 register. in this case, the update event is not generated, and shadow registers (arr, psc, ccrx) keep their value. the counter and the prescaler are reinitialized if the ug bit is set, or if a hardware reset is received from the slave mode controller. an interrupt or/ and a dma request can be generated when the uie bit or/and ude bit are set in the dier register. for more details on using the timer in this mode, refer to the examples provided in the stm32xx standard peripheral libraries in the /project/stm32xx_stdperiph_examples/ tim/timebase folder. stm32cube f3 firmware package includes examples in the following directories: ? projects\stm32f3348-discovery\examples\tim\tim_timebase, ? projects\stm32f302r8-nucleo\examples\tim\tim_timebase, ? projects\stm32f3-discovery\examples\tim\tim_timebase, ? projects\stm32373c_eval\examples\tim\tim_timebase, ? projects\stm32303e_eval\examples\tim\tim_timebase and ? projects\stm32303c_eval\examples\tim\tim_timebase 2.3 timer input capture mode the timer can be used in input capture mode to measure an external signal. depending on timer clock, prescaler and timer resolution, the maximum measured period is deduced. to use the timer in this mode: 1. select the active input by setting the ccxs bits in ccmrx register. these bits should be different from zero, otherwise the ccrx register will be read only. 2. program the filter by writing the ic1f[3:0] bits in the ccmrx register, and the prescaler by writing the ic1psc[1:0] if needed. 3. program the polarity by writing the ccxnp/ccxp bits to select between rising, falling or both edges. the input capture module is used to capture the value of the counter after a transition is detected by the corresponding input channel. to get the external signal period, two consecutive captures are needed. the period is calculated by subtracting these two values. period = capture(1) /(timx_clk *(psc+1)*(icxpsc)*polarity_index(2)) the capture difference between two consecutive captures ccrx_tn and ccrx_tn+1: ? if ccrx_tn < ccrx_tn+1: capture = ccrx_tn+1 - ccrx_tn ? if ccrx_tn > ccrx_tn+1: capture = (arr_max - ccrx_tn) + ccrx_tn+1 the polarity index is 1 if the rising or falling edge is used, and 2 if both edges are used.
docid022500 rev 4 13/37 AN4013 general-purpose timer modes 36 particular case to facilitate the input capture measurement, the timer counter is reset after each rising edge detected on the timer input channel by: ? selecting tixfpx as the input trigger by setting the ts bits in the smcr register ? selecting the reset mode as the slave mode by configuring the sms bits in the smcr register using this configuration, when an edge is detected, the counter is reset and the period of the external signal is automatically given by the value on the ccrx register. this method is used only with channel 1 or channel 2. in this case, the input capture prescaler (icpsc) is not considered in the period computation. the period is computed as follows: period = ccrx /(timx_clk *(psc+1)* polarity_index(1)) the polarity index is 1 if rising or falling edge is used, and 2 if both edges are used. for more details on using the timer in this mode, refer to the examples provided in the stm32xx standard peripheral libraries in the /project/stm32xx_stdperiph_examples/ tim/inputcapture folder. stm32cube f3 firmware package includes examples in the following directories: ? projects\stm32f3-discovery\examples\tim\tim_inputcapture, ? projects\stm32373c_eval\examples\timtim_inputcapture, ? projects\stm32303e_eval\examples\tim\tim_inputcapture and ? projects\stm32303c_eval\examples\tim\tim_inputcapture 2.4 timer output compare mode to control an output waveform, or to indicate when a period of time has elapsed, the timer is used in one of the following output compare modes. the main difference between these modes is the output signal waveform. ? output compare timing : the comparison between the output compare register ccrx and the counter cnt has no effect on the outputs. this mode is used to generate a timing base. ? output compare active : set the channel output to active level on match. the ocxref signal is forced high when the counter (cnt) matches the capture/compare register (ccrx). ? output compare inactive : set channel to inactive level on match. the ocxref signal is forced low when the counter (cnt) matches the capture/compare register (ccrx). ? output compare toggle : ocxref toggles when the counter (cnt) matches the capture/compare register (ccrx). ? output compare forced active/inactive : ocref is forced high (active mode) or low (inactive mode) independently from counter value.

docid022500 rev 4 31/37 AN4013 advanced features for motor control 36 figure 8. position at x2 resolution note: the counter in case of resolution x2 can also be incremented on the ti1 edge. in stm32 timer encoder interface mode, the encoder mode3 corresponds to resolution x4. in this mode, the counter counts up/down on both ti1 and ti2 edges. the resolution x2 is selected when encoder mode 1 or mode 2 is selected, that is, the counter counts up/down on ti2 edge depending on the ti1 level, or the counter counts up/down on ti1 edge depending on ti2 level. how to use the encoder interface an external incremental encoder can be connected directly to the mcu without external interface logic. the third encoder output (index) which indicates the mechanical zero position, may be connected to an external interrupt input and trigger a counter reset. the output signal of the incremental encoder is filtered by the stm32 timer input filter block to reject all noise sources that typically occur in motor systems. this filter is used as described in section 2.3: timer input capture mode . tim configuration in encoder mode 1. select and configure the timer input: ? input selection: ? ti1 connected to ti1fp1 cc1s='01' in ccmr1 register ? ti2 connected to ti2fp2 cc2s='01' in ccmr1 register ? input polarity: ? cc1p='0' and cc1np='0'(ccer register, ti1fp1 non-inverted, ti1fp1=ti1). ? cc2p='0' and cc2np='0'(ccer register, ti1fp2 non-inverted, ti1fp2= ti2). 2. select the encoder mode ? encoder mode1 (resolution x2 on ti2): sms=?001? in smcr register. ? encoder mode2 (resolution x2 on ti1): sms=?010' in smcr register. ? encoder mode3 (resolution x4 on ti1 and ti2): sms=?011? in smcr register. 3. enable the timer counter ? set the counter enable bit, cen='1' in cr1 register. 069 iruzdug uhyhuvdo edfnzdug iruzdug uhyhuvdo 'rzq 8s 8s 7, 7, &rxqwhu ',5elw
advanced features for motor control AN4013 32/37 docid022500 rev 4 hall sensor the hall sensor is a type of sensor based on hall effect: when a conductor is placed in a magnetic field, a voltage will be generated perpendicular to both the current and the magnetic field. there are four types of hall sensor ic devices that provide a digital output: unipolar switches, bipolar switches, omni polar switches, and latches. the main difference between them is the output waveforms (pulse duration). the digital hall sensor provides a digital output in relation to the magnetic field to which it is exposed. when the magnetic field increases and is greater than the brp (magnetic field release point value), the output will be on. when the magnetic field decreases and is lower than the bop (magnetic field operate point value) the output will be off. figure 9 presents the output waveform of a typical hall sensor. figure 9. output waveform of a typical hall sensor generally, the hall sensor is used in the three-phase motor control. figure 10: commutation sequence presents the commutation sequence. figure 10. commutation sequence how to use the hall sensor interface the stm32 timers can interfaces with the hall effect sensors via the standard inputs (ch1, ch2 and ch3). setting ti1s bit in the cr2 register, allows the input filter of channel 1 to be connected to the output of a xor gate, combining the three input pins timx_ch1, timx_ch2 and timx_ch3. 069 % 2) % 5) 6hqvrurxwsxw 069 0rwrusrvlwlrq +doo +doo +doo
docid022500 rev 4 33/37 AN4013 advanced features for motor control 36 the slave mode controller is configured in reset mode; the slave input is ti1f_ed. thus, each time one of the 3 inputs toggles, the counter restarts counting from 0. this creates a time base triggered by any change on the hall inputs. channel 1 is configured in input capture mode, capture signal is trc. the captured value, which corresponds to the time, elapsed between 2 changes on the inputs, gives information about motor speed. tim configuration in hall sensor interface mode 1. configure 3 timer inputs ored to the ti1 input channel by writing the ti1s bit in cr2 register to '1', 2. program the time base: write the arr to the max value (the counter must cleared by the ti1 change. set the prescaler to get a maximum counter period longer than the time between 2 changes on the sensors, 3. program channel 1 in capture mode (trc selected): write the cc1s bits in the ccmr1 register to '01'. you can also program the digital filter if needed.
