GPIO: Clock Enable of the Peripheral Registers
(RCC_AHB1ENR)
• To conserve power, Arm microcontrollers have ways of either slowing down the peripheral circuit clock or stopping the
clock altogether.
• By default clock to peripheral is disabled coming out of power-on reset.
• So need to enable it from RCC (Reset and Clock Control) registers. RCC_AHB1ENR (AHB1 Enable Register)

Interfacing with Light Dependent Resistor
(LDR)
• A photoresistor or light dependent resistor is an electronic component
that is sensitive to light.
• When light falls upon it, then the resistance changes.
• Photoresistor LDR’s are light-dependent devices whose tance is decreased when
resis light falls on them and that is increased in the dark
• So, when light falls on LDR: STM32 will Read Input = low “0”
• when no light falls on LDR: STM32 will Read Input = low “1”

STM32F407 Programmable
Timers
• RCC_APB1ENR and APB2ENR registers are used to enable or disable the clock to individual TIMx timers.
• Bits 8-0 of RCC_APB1ENR register are used to enable the clock to some of TIMx timers.
• Without the clock enabled, the CPU will not be able to communicate with the timer.
RCC_APB1ENR
RCC_APB2ENR
For example, we can use the following code to enable the clock to TIM2: RCC->APB1ENR |= 1; /* enable TIM2 clock */

•Registers
There are 14 Registers
Important Registers available in all 14 Timers
Prof. Harshad N. Lokhande -
NBNSSOE
Timers in STM32F4xx:- CONTROL 1 Register
(CR1)
Using the CR1 (Control 1) register, we can control the counter direction, one shot, or disable/enable.
Some of the CR1 register bits
CEN (Counter Enable, D0): enables or disables the counter. When the CEN bit is set, the timer starts to count. It counts up
or down depending on the DIR bit.
DIR (Direction, D4): This bit configures the Timer/Counter as an up or down counter.
• If the DIR bit is 0, the timer counts up.
• If the DIR bit is 1, the counter counts down.
Eg:- Find the value for CR1 register, to enable the TIM2 for up counter.
ANS:- TIM2_CR1 = 0b010001 = 0x0011
Prof. Harshad N. Lokhande -
NBNSSOE
Timers in STM32F4xx:- TIMxSR (Status
Register)
UIF (D0): This is like overflow flag in other microcontrollers. When the timer counts down from a starting value and
reaches 0, the UIF is set high.

Timers in STM32F4xx :- Delay
Generation
Example:- Using TIM2, show the code that makes a delay of 20 ms.
Assume SYSCLK =16 MHz.
Given Data:-
SYSCLK =16 MHz
Delay = 20 ms
Need to Find? :- N = TIMx_CNT register (Count need to Load to
generate 20 ms delay)
Solution:-
• delay = N × M / SYSCLK
• N = delay × SYSCLK / M = 0.020 sec × 16 MHz / M = 320,000 / M
Initialization Code:
• If we choose the prescaler (PSC) to divide by 64, RCC->APB1ENR |= 1; /* enable TIM2 clock
*/ TIM2->PSC = 64 - 1; /*divided by 64
• N = 320,000 / 64 = 5,000
*/
TIM2->ARR = 5000 - 1; /* divided by 5000
*/ TIM2->CNT = 0;
TIM2->CR1 = 1; /* enable timer2 */

Timer:- System Tick
Timer
• Every Arm Cortex-M comes with a System tick timer.
• System tick timer allows the system to initiate an action on a periodic basis.
• This action is performed internally at a fixed rate without external signal.
• The SysTick is a 24-bit down counter driven by the processor clock (AHB clock, the clock that feeds the CPU).
• It counts from an initial value down to 0.
• When it reaches 0, in the next clock, it underflows and it raises a flag called COUNT and reloads the initial value
and starts over again.
• We can set the initial value to a value between 0x000000 to 0xFFFFFF
Prof. Harshad N. Lokhande -
NBNSSOE
Working of System Tick
Timer
• The down counter is named as STCVR (SysTick Current Value Register)
• The clock source is chosen using the CLKSOURCE bit of STCSR (SysTick Control & Status Register)
• Need to configure bits from STCTRL (SysTick Control and Status)
• EN 0 Bit: When the ENABLE bit is set the counter initializes the STCVR (SysTick Current Value Register)
with the value of the STRVR (SysTick Reload Value Register)
Prof. Harshad N. Lokhande -
NBNSSOE
Counters in STM32F4xx :- Basic
Operation
• In Counter mode the timer is counting
the number of external input pulses.
• A Prescaler for the external signal is
available to divide the external signal by
1, 2, 4, or 8.
• The counter wraps around when the
value matches the ARR on the up count
and set to the value of ARR when down
count to 0.
• It sets the UIF (Update interrupt flag)
when the count wraps around. It sets
CCxIF (Capture Compare Interrupt
Flag) when the value matches the CCRx
register.

UART :- Baud Rate
Generation
The baud rate for the receiver and transmitter (Rx and Tx) are both set to the same value as programmed in
the Mantissa and Fraction values of USARTDIV
Baud Rate =
When OVER8=0, the fractional part is coded on 4 bits
When OVER8=1, the fractional part is coded on 3 bits
Example1 :- For SYSCLK = 16MHZ, And for Baud Rate = 9600 with OVER8 = 0 ?
Soln:-
USARTDIV = Fck / 16 x Baud
16MHz / 16 x 9,600 = 104.166.
Now, 104 = 0x68 for upper 12-bits.
For fraction part, 0.166 x 16 = 2.656 ͌ = 0x03
Example 2:- For SYSCLK = 16MHZ, And for Baud Rate = 19200 with OVER8 = 0 ?
Soln:-
USARTDIV = Fck / 16 x Baud
16MHz / 16 x 19,200 = 52.08.
Now, 52 = 0x034 for upper 12-bits.
For fraction part, 0.08 x 16 = 1.28 and we use 1 for lower 4-bits.

signal
conversion time
time to do the conversion
• A sample and hold circuit is added between the input signal and the converter.
The number of clock cycles for sampling time can be programmed using ADC_SMPRx (Sample Time Register)
register. We have two ADC_SMPRx registers to covers all the 18 ADC channels.
• ADC_SMPR2 is used for channels 0 to 9
• ADC_SMPR1 is used for channels 10 to 18.

010: 28 cycles 110: 144 cycles
011: 56 cycles 111: 480 cycles
• In the conversion phase, the analog input is converted to binary numbers.
• In this phase, the number of clocks required depends on ADC resolution namely the number of bits of the binary
output 6, 8, 10, or 12.
• For example, if we use the default of 3 clock cycle for sample time with the 8-bit ADC resolution, the total
number of clocks needed for ADC conversion is 11 clocks.

Bit 5: OVR Overrun This bit is set by hardware when data are lost.
This happens if we do not read the result of the last conversion from the Data Register (ADC_DR).
Bit 1: EOC End of Conversion -
• This bit is set by ADC itself at the end of each conversion of a channel.
• It is cleared by software or by reading the ADC_DR (ADC Data) register.
• By polling this flag, we know if the conversion is complete and we can read the value in the
DATA register.
We can use EOCIE (EOC Interrupt enable) bit in ADC_CR1 register to enable the interrupt option

• Two DAC converters: one output channel each as DAC1 and DAC2.
• They are available at the analog out pins “PA4 and PA5” for chan1 and chan2
• Left or right data alignment in 12-bit mode
• Synchronized update capability
• Noise-wave generation
• Triangular-wave generation
• Dual DAC channel for independent or simultaneous conversions
• DMA capability for each channel
• DMA underrun error detection

STM32F4xx DAC Block
Diagram
The DAC integrates two output buffers that can be used to reduce the output impedance, and to drive external loads
directly without having to add an external operational amplifier.
Vref should be at 1.8 V ≤ VREF+ ≤ VDDA
The output voltage from the DAC can be calculated using the following formula:

DAC_CR (DAC Control
Register)
The most important bit in DAC_CR is the enable bit.
Bit 0 EN1: DAC channel1 enable ; where 0: DAC channel1 disabled, 1: DAC channel1 enabled
Bit 1 BOFF1: DAC channel1 output buffer disable
Bits 5:3 TSEL1[2:0]: DAC channel1 trigger selection

DAC Data Holding Registers
(DAC_DHR)
• There are 8 registers according to Data Holding Position
• For eg: - DAC channel1 12-bit right-aligned data holding register (DAC_DHR12R1)
• DAC channel1 12-bit left aligned data holding register (DAC_DHR12L1)
• Writing new data into DAC holing register starts a conversion.
• Data stored in the DAC_DHRx register are automatically transferred to the Data Output registers (DAC_DOR) register
after one clock cycle.
• The Digital inputs are converted to output voltages on a linear conversion between 0 and VREF+

DAC- Data Output registers (DAC_DOR)
register
• Data stored in the DAC_DHRx register are automatically transferred to the Data Output registers (DAC_DOR) register
after one clock cycle.
• The Digital inputs are converted to output voltages on a linear conversion between 0 and VREF+
Enabling Clock to DAC
• To save power no clock is fed to DAC upon Reset.
• To use the on-chip, DAC we must enable the clock to DAC using RCC APB1 peripheral clock enable register
(RCC_APB1ENR)

C program to generate a step waveform using
DAC
• Solution:- The loop counter i is incremented every iteration and written into the DAC_DHR register to create
the 4 steps.
