31.4.11 TIMx prescaler (TIMx_PSC)
Address offset: 0x28
Reset value: 0x0000
31.4.12 TIMx auto-reload register (TIMx_ARR)
Address offset: 0x2C
Reset value: 0xFFFF FFFF
Bit 31 Value depends on IUFREMAP in TIMx_CR1.
If UIFREMAP = 0
CNT[31]: Most significant bit of counter value (on TIM2 and TIM5)
Reserved on other timers
If UIFREMAP = 1
UIFCPY: UIF Copy
This bit is a read-only copy of the UIF bit of the TIMx_ISR register
Bits 30:16 CNT[30:16]: Most significant part counter value (on TIM2 and TIM5)
Bits 15:0 CNT[15:0]: Least significant part of counter value

Bits 15:0 PSC[15:0]: Prescaler value
The counter clock frequency CK_CNT is equal to f
CK_PSC
/ (PSC[15:0] + 1).
PSC contains the value to be loaded in the active prescaler register at each update event
(including when the counter is cleared through UG bit of TIMx_EGR register or through
trigger controller when configured in “reset mode”).

ARR is the value to be loaded in the actual auto-reload register.
Refer to the Section 31.3.1: Time-base unit on page 984 for more details about ARR update
