Basic timer

The tutorial demonstrates how to use the basic timer (TIM6) to control the onboard LED on the development board to flash.

The tutorial only introduces the standard library project code

Hardware connection

Control principle

Use the timing function of TIM6 on the STM32F103RCT6 development board

Use the GPIO output function to control the LED and implement the timing function through the basic timer.

• Basic timer

Use the timing function of TIM6 on the STM32F103ZET6 development board

Time base unit

Timing formula

Timing time for this project: 10ms

Software configuration

Software code

Configure the timing function of the basic timer TIM6, without configuring specific pins.

Experimental phenomenon

The Base_Time.hex file generated by the project compilation is located in the OBJ folder of the Base_Time project. Find the Base_Time.hex file corresponding to the project and use the FlyMcu software to download the program into the development board.

After the program is successfully downloaded: the LED flashes three times every 3 seconds.
