Clock sources

The counter clock can be provided by the following clock sources:
●
Internal clock (CK_INT)
●
External clock mode1: external input pin
●
External clock mode2: external trigger input ETR
●
Internal trigger inputs (ITRx): using one timer as prescaler for another timer, for
example, you can configure Timer 1 to act as a prescaler for Timer 2. Refer to
one timer as prescaler for another timer
Internal clock source (CK_INT)
If the slave mode controller is disabled (SMS=000), then the CEN, DIR (in the TIMx_CR1
register) and UG bits (in the TIMx_EGR register) are actual control bits and can be changed
only by software (except UG which remains cleared automatically). As soon as the CEN bit
is written to 1, the prescaler is clocked by the internal clock CK_INT.

without prescaler.

External clock source mode 1
This mode is selected when SMS=111 in the TIMx_SMCR register. The counter can count
at each rising or falling edge on a selected input.

Figure 65. TI2 external clock connection example

shows the behavior of the control circuit and the upcounter in normal mode,
