Using One Timer to Enable the Other Timer

In this example, shown in Figure 9-32, the enable of Timer 2 is controlled with the output compare 1 of

Timer 1. Timer 2 counts on the divided internal clock only when OC1REF of Timer 1 is high. Both counter clock

frequencies are divided by 3 by the prescaler compared to CK_INT (fCK_CNT = fCK_INT /3).

Configure Timer 1 in master mode to send its Output Compare Reference (OC1REF) signal as trigger

output: Write TIM_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: Write TIM_TS = 000 in the TIM2_SMCR register.

Configure Timer 2 in gated mode: Write TIM_SMS = 101 in the TIM2_SMCR register.

Enable Timer 2: Write 1 in the TIM_CEN bit in the TIM2_CR1 register.

Start Timer 1: Write 1 in the TIM_CEN bit in the TIM1_CR1 register.

Note:

The counter 2 clock is not synchronized with counter 1, this mode only affects the Timer 2 counter

enable signal.

Figure 9-32. Gating Timer 2 with OC1REF of Timer 1

In the example in Figure 9-32, the Timer 2 counter and prescaler are not initialized before being started. So

they start counting from their current value. It is possible to start from a given value by resetting both timers

before starting Timer 1, then writing the desired value in the timer counters. The timers can easily be reset

by software using the TIM_UG bit in the TIMx_EGR registers.

The next example, illustrated in Figure 9-33, synchronizes 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 TIM_CEN bit in the TIM1_CR1 register:

Configure Timer 1 in master mode to send its Output Compare Reference (OC1REF) signal as trigger

output: Write TIM_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: Write TIM_TS = 000 in the TIM2_SMCR register.

Configure Timer 2 in gated mode: Write TIM_SMS = 101 in the TIM2_SMCR register.

Reset Timer 1: Write 1 in the TIM_UG bit (TIM1_EGR register.

Reset Timer 2 by writing 1 in the TIM_UG bit (TIM2_EGR register).

Initialize Timer 2 to 0xE7: Write 0xE7 in the Timer 2 counter (TIM2_CNTL).

Enable Timer 2: Write 1 in the TIM_CEN bit in the TIM2_CR1 register.

Start Timer 1: Write 1 in the TIM_CEN bit in the TIM1_CR1 register.

Stop Timer 1: Write 0 in the TIM_CEN bit in the TIM1_CR1 register.
