General-purpose timers (TIM2 to TIM5)
you want in the timer counters. The timers can easily be reset by software using the UG bit
in the TIMx_EGR registers.
In the next example, we synchronize Timer 1 and Timer 2. Timer 1 is the master and starts
from 0. Timer 2 is the slave and starts from 0xE7. The prescaler ratio is the same for both
timers. Timer 2 stops when Timer 1 is disabled by writing '0 to the CEN bit in the TIM1_CR1
register:
•
Configure Timer 1 master mode to send its Output compare 1 Reference (OC1REF)
signal as trigger output (MMS=100 in the TIM1_CR2 register).
•
Configure the Timer 1 OC1REF waveform (TIM1_CCMR1 register).
•
Configure Timer 2 to get the input trigger from Timer 1 (TS=000 in the TIM2_SMCR
register).
•
Configure Timer 2 in gated mode (SMS=101 in TIM2_SMCR register).
•
Reset Timer 1 by writing '1 in UG bit (TIM1_EGR register).
•
Reset Timer 2 by writing '1 in UG bit (TIM2_EGR register).
•
Initialize Timer 2 to 0xE7 by writing '0xE7' in the timer 2 counter (TIM2_CNTL).
•
Enable Timer 2 by writing '1 in the CEN bit (TIM2_CR1 register).
•
Start Timer 1 by writing '1 in the CEN bit (TIM1_CR1 register).
•
Stop Timer 1 by writing '0 in the CEN bit (TIM1_CR1 register).
