30.4.6 Clock selection
The counter clock can be provided by the following clock sources:
• Internal clock (tim_ker_ck)
• External clock mode1: external input pin (tim_ti1 or tim_ti2, if available)
• Internal trigger inputs (tim_itrx) (only for TIM15): using one timer as the prescaler for
another timer, for example, TIM1 can be configured to act as a prescaler for TIM15.
Refer to Using one timer to enable another timer for more details.
Internal clock source (tim_ker_ck)
If the slave mode controller is disabled (SMS=000), then the CEN (in the TIMx_CR1
register) and UG bits (in the TIMx_EGR register) are actual control bits and can be changed
Edge-aligned mode
UEV
Update Event: preload registers transferred to active registers
and update interrupt generated.
