Timer Compare

Output compare mode

OCxM	000	Frozen - The comparison between the output compare register TIMx_CCR1 and the counter TIMx_CNT has no effect on the outputs.(this mode is used to generate a timing base).
	001	Set channel 1 to active level on match. OC1REF signal is forced high when the counter TIMx_CNT matches the capture/compare register 1 (TIMx_CCR1).
	010	Set channel 1 to inactive level on match. OC1REF signal is forced low when the counter TIMx_CNT matches the capture/compare register 1 (TIMx_CCR1).
	011	Toggle - OC1REF toggles when TIMx_CNT=TIMx_CCR1.
	100	Force inactive level - OC1REF is forced low.
	101	Force active level - OC1REF is forced high.
	110	PWM mode 1 - In upcounting, channel 1 is active as long as TIMx_CNT<TIMx_CCR1 else inactive. In downcounting, channel 1 is inactive (OC1REF=‘0’) as long as TIMx_CNT>TIMx_CCR1 else active (OC1REF=’1’).
	111	PWM mode 2 - In upcounting, channel 1 is inactive as long as TIMx_CNT<TIMx_CCR1 else active. In downcounting, channel 1 is active as long as TIMx_CNT>TIMx_CCR1 else inactive.

Input compare mode

ICxF	0000	No filter, f_DTS (reset state)	1000	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 8, N=6
	0001	f_sampling ⇒ f_CKINT, N=2	1001	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 8, N=8
	0010	f_sampling ⇒ f_CKINT, N=4	1010	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 16, N=5
	0011	f_sampling ⇒ f_CKINT, N=8	1011	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 16, N=6
	0100	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 2, N=6	1100	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 16, N=8
	0101	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 2, N=8	1101	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 32, N=5
	0110	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 4, N=6	1110	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 32, N=6
	0111	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 4, N=8	1111	f_sampling ⇒ f_DTS / 32, N=8
ICxPSC	00	no prescaler, capture is done each time an edge is detected on the capture input (reset state)
	01	capture is done once every 2 events
	10	capture is done once every 4 events
	11	capture is done once every 8 events

Select mode

CCxS	00	CCx channel is configured as output
	01	CCx channel is configured as input, ICx is mapped on TIx
	10	CCx channel is configured as input, ICx is mapped on TIx
	11	CCx channel is configured as input, ICx is mapped on TRC. This mode is working only if an internal trigger input is selected through TS bit (TIMx_SMCR register)
		*Note: CCxS bits are writable only when the channel is OFF (CCxE = ‘0’ in TIMx_CCER).

CCxDE	0	CCx DMA request disabled (reset state)
CCxDE	1	CCx DMA request enabled
CCxIE	0	CCx interrupt disabled (reset state)
CCxIE	1	CCx interrupt enabled

CCxNP	0	OC1N active high
CCxNP	1	OC1N active low
CCxNE	0	Off - OC1N is not active. OC1N level is then function of MOE, OSSI, OSSR, OIS1, OIS1N and CC1E bits.
	1	On - OC1N signal is output on the corresponding output pin depending on MOE, OSSI, OSSR, OIS1, OIS1N and CC1E bits.
		*Note: On channels having a complementary output, this bit is preloaded. If the CCPC bit is set in the TIMx_CR2 register then the CC1NE active bit takes the new value from the preloaded bit only when a Commutation event is generated.
CCxP	0	OC1 active high
CCxP	1	OC1 active low
CCxE	0	Capture/compare output x disabled (reset state)
CCxE	1	Capture/compare output x enabled

CCRx	15:0	Capture/Compare value

MOE	0	OC and OCN outputs are disabled or forced to idle state. (reset state)
MOE	1	OC and OCN outputs are enabled if their respective enable bits are set (CCxE, CCxNE in TIMx_CCER register).

The code snippet below shows how to configure and use a GPIO pin as input.

#include "reg_stm32f4xx.h"
 
RCC->AHBENR[0] |= (0x1 << 0u);          /* Enable GPIOA clock */
RCC->APBENR[0] |= (0x1 << 0u);          /* Enable TIM2 clock */
 
/* configure output */
GPIOA->MODER |= (0x2 << 0u);          /* Set pin 0 to Alternate Function */
GPIOA->AFR[0] |= (0x1 << 0u);         /* Set pin 0 to AF1 (TIM2) */
 
/* configure basic timer */
TIM2->PSC = 84000u - 1u;              /* Counting with f = 84MHz / 84000 = 1MHz */
TIM2->ARR = 512u;                     /* Count to 512 */
 
/* configure timer output */
TIM2->CCMR1 |= (0x6 << 4u);           /* Enable PWM mode 1 on channel 1 */
TIM2->CCER |= (0x1 << 0u);            /* Enable output on channel 1 */
 
TIM2->CR1 |= (0x1 << 0u);             /* Start timer */
