Basic control timer
The Basic Timer consists of a 32-bit auto-reload counter driven by a programmable pre-scaler.
Overview
The Basic Timer consists of a 32-bit auto-reload counter driven by a programmable pre-scaler. It is completely independent and may be used as generic timers for time-base generation.
Key features
- 32-bit auto-reload up-counter
- 16-bit programmable pre-scaler used to divide the counter clock frequency
- Interrupt/DMA request generation by two update event sources:
- counter overflow
- event generated by software
