RM0008 Advanced-control timers (TIM1&TIM8)
Doc ID 13902 Rev 12 299/1096
The following example shows how to capture the counter value in TIMx_CCR1 when TI1
input rises. To do this, use the following procedure:
● Select the active input: TIMx_CCR1 must be linked to the TI1 input, so write the CC1S
bits to 01 in the TIMx_CCMR1 register. As soon as CC1S becomes different from 00,
the channel is configured in input and the TIMx_CCR1 register becomes read-only.
● Program the input filter duration you need with respect to the signal you connect to the
timer (when the input is one of the TIx (ICxF bits in the TIMx_CCMRx register). Let’s
imagine that, when toggling, the input signal is not stable during at must 5 internal clock
cycles. We must program a filter duration longer than these 5 clock cycles. We can
validate a transition on TI1 when 8 consecutive samples with the new level have been
detected (sampled at f
DTS
frequency). Then write IC1F bits to 0011 in the
TIMx_CCMR1 register.
● Select the edge of the active transition on the TI1 channel by writing CC1P bit to 0 in
the TIMx_CCER register (rising edge in this case).
● Program the input prescaler. In our example, we wish the capture to be performed at
each valid transition, so the prescaler is disabled (write IC1PS bits to ‘00’ in the
TIMx_CCMR1 register).
● Enable capture from the counter into the capture register by setting the CC1E bit in the
TIMx_CCER register.
● If needed, enable the related interrupt request by setting the CC1IE bit in the
TIMx_DIER register, and/or the DMA request by setting the CC1DE bit in the
TIMx_DIER register.
When an input capture occurs:
● The TIMx_CCR1 register gets the value of the counter on the active transition.
● CC1IF flag is set (interrupt flag). CC1OF is also set if at least two consecutive captures
occurred whereas the flag was not cleared.
● An interrupt is generated depending on the CC1IE bit.
● A DMA request is generated depending on the CC1DE bit.
In order to handle the overcapture, it is recommended to read the data before the
overcapture flag. This is to avoid missing an overcapture which could happen after reading
the flag and before reading the data.
Note: IC interrupt and/or DMA requests can be generated by software by setting the
corresponding CCxG bit in the TIMx_EGR register.
14.3.7 PWM input mode
This mode is a particular case of input capture mode. The procedure is the same except:
● Two ICx signals are mapped on the same TIx input.
● These 2 ICx signals are active on edges with opposite polarity.
● One of the two TIxFP signals is selected as trigger input and the slave mode controller
is configured in reset mode.
