This is one of the best instructions I have ever had, and I’m a 65 years old EE :-) I can imagine the amounts of time you have spent making these videos. I have played with Arduino for many years, but you are the first to teach me what REALLY goes on behind the IDE. Because of you I’ll start working with STM, and you’ve already given me a flying start. But please don’t stop now ... Again, thanks a lot !

The best beginner-friendly explanation about PWM timers. For some viewers, there might be a bit of misunderstanding. At 9:25, you're using 72 MHz as example (281 kHZ fix typo), and at 19:10, you're using 8 MHz, as shown by the 31 kHz reading on the oscilloscope."

So no need set pwmc setphasavoltage, because global pwm duty (pulse) already set max 60%?? Or this will set all tim for 60% sir?? Any idea?? Thank u

@manfred42833 жыл бұрын
Thanks for the video series about STM32. Your explanations are really great. There is a typo in the calculation of the PWM frequency. It is actually 281250 Hz instead of 218250 Hz. Later on the scope shows the right duty cycle but at another frequency. Might be related to the clock configuration. This is a little confusing for beginners like me. But the video still helped me to get the PWM configured.
@peterbraganza32583 жыл бұрын
Hey I had a similar confusion with the frequency at the end being about 31kHz. What I think is he used the internal HSI(High speed clock) RC oscillator which gives you a frequency of 8MHz . So when you calculate the frequency of PWM you get 8Mhz/256 = 31kHz. hope this helps! (Note: You can get 72Mhz clock speed from the external crystal oscillator but you have to configure that in the CubeMX clock configuration)

My understanding of the Auto Reload Preload is different from what you explained. By default, the timer keeps repeating. You can make it count once by enabling One Pulse Mode. The Auto Reload Preload affects when an Auto Reload Register change takes effect. If preload is enabled, it waits until the end of the current period, and the change takes effect when the counter resets. Otherwise the Auto Reload register is changed immediately, which will extend or shorten the current period. Consider if you're changing the ARR to a smaller value while the timer is running, and the counter is already larger than the new ARR value. With preload disabled, the counter would immediately reset (because the counter is greater than or equal to the ARR) and begin counting up to the new value. This means you'd have a glitch in the period, where it was neither the old period, nor the new period.

All tricks learnt in operating the STM32 IDE environment are so valuable that they will save you a lot of time and energy and most importantly, frustration. These tricks and insights are bridging the gap between where I am and where I want to be. I appreciated your generous sharing of knowledge which you at one point had to put in efforts to learn yourself!

One thing to think about - consider audible frequencies! Often times, the default PWM frequencies of many libraries and frameworks (including Arduino) fall well within audible frequency ranges, which very well could generate an audible annoying whine. Try aiming at at least 20kHz, more if you have small children, probably a lot more if you have pets. A few years ago I used an ESP8266 to make a wifi-connected MQTT-based RGB light, programmed it via the Arduino IDE and left all settings default. It really was an, admittedly quiet, but annoying whine until I fixed it.

Many just tell: "set x to 255, y to 16 blah blah" and then you're more clueless than you started. You explain things and this is awesome because then I know the theory behind and I can start looking into it a bit more, and start messing around myself.
