Advanced control timer (TIM1) UM0306
160/519
In addition, if the URS bit (update request selection) in TIM1_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
TIM1_SR register) is set (depending on the URS bit):
The repetition counter is reloaded with the content of TIM1_RCR register,
The auto-reload active register is updated with the preload value (content of the TIM1_ARR
register). Note that if the update source is a counter overflow, the auto-reload is updated
before the counter is reloaded, so that the next period is the expected one (the counter is
loaded with the new value).
The following figures show some examples of the counter behavior for different clock
frequencies.
