3) For the shared and system peripherals, no handle or instance object is used.
The peripherals concerned by this exception are the following:
GPIO
SYSTICK
NVIC
PWR
RCC
FLASH.
2.2.2 Initialization and configuration structure
These structures are defined in the generic driver header file when it is common to all part
numbers. When they can change from one part number to another, the structures are
defined in the extension header file for each part number.
typedef struct
{
uint32_t BaudRate; /*!< This member configures the UART communication baudrate.*/
uint32_t WordLength; /*!< Specifies the number of data bits transmitted or received
in a frame.*/
uint32_t StopBits; /*!< Specifies the number of stop bits transmitted.*/
uint32_t Parity; /*!< Specifies the parity mode. */
uint32_t Mode; /*!< Specifies wether the Receive or Transmit mode is enabled or
disabled.*/
uint32_t HwFlowCtl; /*!< Specifies wether the hardware flow control mode is enabled
or disabled.*/
uint32_t OverSampling; /*!< Specifies wether the Over sampling 8 is enabled or
disabled,
to achieve higher speed (up to fPCLK/8).*/
}UART_InitTypeDef;
The config structure is used to initialize the sub-modules or sub-instances. See
below example:
HAL_ADC_ConfigChannel (ADC_HandleTypeDef* hadc, ADC_ChannelConfTypeDef*
sConfig)
2.2.3 Specific process structures
The specific process structures are used for specific process (common APIs). They are
defined in the generic driver header file.
Example:
HAL_PPP_Process (PPP_HandleTypeDef* hadc,PPP_ProcessConfig* sConfig)
2.3 API classification
The HAL APIs are classified into three categories:
Generic APIs:common generic APIs applying to all STM32 devices. These APIs are
consequently present in the generic HAL driver files of all STM32 microcontrollers.
HAL_StatusTypeDef HAL_ADC_Init(ADC_HandleTypeDef* hadc);
HAL_StatusTypeDef HAL_ADC_DeInit(ADC_HandleTypeDef *hadc);
HAL_StatusTypeDef HAL_ADC_Start(ADC_HandleTypeDef* hadc);
HAL_StatusTypeDef HAL_ADC_Stop(ADC_HandleTypeDef* hadc);
HAL_StatusTypeDef HAL_ADC_Start_IT(ADC_HandleTypeDef* hadc);
