Important Change from v1.2.0

Please have a look at HOWTO Fix Multiple Definitions Linker Error

As more complex calculation and check inside ISR are introduced from v1.2.0, there is possibly some crash depending on use-case.

You can modify to use larger HW_TIMER_INTERVAL_US, (from current 20uS), according to your board and use-case if crash happens.

// Current 20uS
#define HW_TIMER_INTERVAL_US      20L

Why do we need this STM32_Slow_PWM library

Features

This library enables you to use Hardware Timers on STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 boards such as NUCLEO_H743ZI2, NUCLEO_L552ZE_Q, NUCLEO_F767ZI, BLUEPILL_F103CB, etc., to create and output PWM to pins. Because this library doesn't use the powerful hardware-controlled PWM with limitations, the maximum PWM frequency is currently limited at 1000Hz, which is suitable for many real-life applications. Now you can also modify PWM settings on-the-fly.

This library enables you to use Interrupt from Hardware Timers on STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 boards to create and output PWM to pins. It now supports 16 ISR-based synchronized PWM channels, while consuming only 1 Hardware Timer. PWM interval can be very long (uint32_t millisecs). The most important feature is they're ISR-based PWM channels. Therefore, their executions are not blocked by bad-behaving functions or tasks. This important feature is absolutely necessary for mission-critical tasks. These hardware PWM channels, using interrupt, still work even if other functions are blocking. Moreover, they are much more precise (certainly depending on clock frequency accuracy) than other software PWM using millis() or micros(). That's necessary if you need to measure some data requiring better accuracy.

As Hardware Timers are rare, and very precious assets of any board, this library now enables you to use up to 16 ISR-based synchronized PWM channels, while consuming only 1 Hardware Timer. Timers' interval is very long (ulong millisecs).

Now with these new 16 ISR-based PWM-channels, the maximum interval is practically unlimited (limited only by unsigned long milliseconds) while the accuracy is nearly perfect compared to software timers.

The most important feature is they're ISR-based PWM channels. Therefore, their executions are not blocked by bad-behaving functions / tasks. This important feature is absolutely necessary for mission-critical tasks.

The PWMs_Array_Complex example will demonstrate the nearly perfect accuracy, compared to software PWM, by printing the actual period / duty-cycle in microsecs of each of PWM-channels.

Being ISR-based PWM, their executions are not blocked by bad-behaving functions / tasks, such as connecting to WiFi, Internet or Blynk services. You can also have many (up to 16) timers to use.

This non-being-blocked important feature is absolutely necessary for mission-critical tasks.

You'll see software-based SimpleTimer is blocked while system is connecting to WiFi / Internet / Blynk, as well as by blocking task in loop(), using delay() function as an example. The elapsed time then is very unaccurate

Why using ISR-based PWM is better

Imagine you have a system with a mission-critical function, measuring water level and control the sump pump or doing something much more important. You normally use a software timer to poll, or even place the function in loop(). But what if another function is blocking the loop() or setup().

So your function might not be executed, and the result would be disastrous.

You'd prefer to have your function called, no matter what happening with other functions (busy loop, bug, etc.).

The correct choice is to use a Hardware Timer with Interrupt to call your function.

These hardware timers, using interrupt, still work even if other functions are blocking. Moreover, they are much more precise (certainly depending on clock frequency accuracy) than other software timers using millis() or micros(). That's necessary if you need to measure some data requiring better accuracy.

Functions using normal software timers, relying on loop() and calling millis(), won't work if the loop() or setup() is blocked by certain operation. For example, certain function is blocking while it's connecting to WiFi or some services.

The catch is your function is now part of an ISR (Interrupt Service Routine), and must be lean / mean, and follow certain rules. More to read on:

HOWTO Attach Interrupt

Currently supported Boards

STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 boards such as NUCLEO_H743ZI2, NUCLEO_L552ZE_Q, NUCLEO_F767ZI, BLUEPILL_F103CB, etc., using Arduino Core for STM32

Important Notes about ISR

Inside the attached function, delay() won’t work and the value returned by millis() will not increment. Serial data received while in the function may be lost. You should declare as volatile any variables that you modify within the attached function.
Typically global variables are used to pass data between an ISR and the main program. To make sure variables shared between an ISR and the main program are updated correctly, declare them as volatile.

Prerequisites

Arduino IDE 1.8.19+ for Arduino.
Arduino Core for STM32 v2.3.0+ for STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 boards.

HOWTO Fix `Multiple Definitions` Linker Error

The current library implementation, using xyz-Impl.h instead of standard xyz.cpp, possibly creates certain Multiple Definitions Linker error in certain use cases.

You can include this .hpp file

// Can be included as many times as necessary, without `Multiple Definitions` Linker Error
#include "STM32_Slow_PWM.hpp"     //https://github.com/khoih-prog/STM32_Slow_PWM

in many files. But be sure to use the following .h file in just 1 .h, .cpp or .ino file, which must not be included in any other file, to avoid Multiple Definitions Linker Error

// To be included only in main(), .ino with setup() to avoid `Multiple Definitions` Linker Error
#include "STM32_Slow_PWM.h"           //https://github.com/khoih-prog/STM32_Slow_PWM

Check the new multiFileProject example for a HOWTO demo.

Have a look at the discussion in Different behaviour using the src_cpp or src_h lib #80

More useful Information about STM32 Timers

The Timers of STM32s are numerous, yet very sophisticated and powerful.

In general, across the STM32 microcontrollers families, the timer peripherals that have the same name also have the same features set, but there are a few exceptions.

For example, the TIM1 timer peripheral is shared across the STM32F1 Series, STM32F2 Series and STM32F4 Series, but for the specific case of STM32F30x microcontrollers family, the TIM1 timer peripheral features a bit richer features set than the TIM1 present in the other families.

The general purpose timers embedded by the STM32 microcontrollers share the same backbone structure; they differ only on the level of features embedded by a given timer peripheral.

The level of features integration for a given timer peripheral is decided based on the applications field that it targets.

The timer peripherals can be classified as: • Advanced-configuration timers like TIM1 and TIM8 among others. • General-purpose configuration timers like TIM2 and TIM3 among others • Lite-configuration timers like TIM9, TIM10, TIM12 and TIM16 among others • Basic-configuration timers like TIM6 and TIM7 among others.

For example, STM32F103C8T6 has one advance timer, while STM32F103VET6 has two advanced timers. Nucleo-144 STM32F767ZI boards have 14 Timers, TIM1-TIM14.

More information can be found at Embedded-Lab STM32 TIMERS

To be sure which Timer is available for the board you're using, check the Core Package's related files. For example, for Nucleo-144 STM32F767ZI, check these files:

~/.arduino15/packages/STM32/hardware/stm32/1.9.0/system/Drivers/CMSIS/Device/ST/STM32F7xx/Include/stm32f7xx.h

Available Timers for STM32

Because STM32 boards and Timers are numerous, changing and so complex, there can never be a complete and correct list of available Timers to use.

This is the temporary list for STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 Timers which can possibly be used. The available Timers certainly depends on whether they are being used for other purpose (core, application, libraries, etc.) or not. You have to exhausively test, research, verify by yourself to be sure.

1. OK to use

If exists, otherwise, compiler error will happen

TIM1, TIM4, TIM7, TIM8, TIM12, TIM13, TIM14, TIM15, TIM16, TIM17

2. Not exist

TIM9, TIM10, TIM11. Only for STM32F2, STM32F4 or STM32L1

3.Not declared

TIM18, TIM19, TIM20, TIM21, TIM22

3. Not OK => conflict or crash

TIM2, TIM3, TIM5, TIM6

Usage

Before using any Timer for a PWM channel, you have to make sure the Timer has not been used by any other purpose.

1. Init Hardware Timer

// Depending on the board, you can select STM32H7 Hardware Timer from TIM1-TIM22
// If you select a Timer not correctly, you'll get a message from compiler
// 'TIMxx' was not declared in this scope; did you mean 'TIMyy'? 

// STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 OK       : TIM1, TIM4, TIM7, TIM8, TIM12, TIM13, TIM14, TIM15, TIM16, TIM17
// STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 Not OK   : TIM2, TIM3, TIM5, TIM6, TIM18, TIM19, TIM20, TIM21, TIM22
// STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 No timer : TIM9, TIM10, TIM11. Only for STM32F2, STM32F4 and STM32L1 
// STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 No timer : TIM18, TIM19, TIM20, TIM21, TIM22

// Init timer TIM1
STM32Timer ITimer(TIM1);

// Init STM32_Slow_PWM
STM32_Slow_PWM ISR_PWM;

2. Set PWM Frequency, dutycycle, attach irqCallbackStartFunc and irqCallbackStopFunc functions

void irqCallbackStartFunc()
{

}

void irqCallbackStopFunc()
{

}

void setup()
{
  ....
  
  // You can use this with PWM_Freq in Hz
    ISR_PWM.setPWM(PWM_Pin, PWM_Freq, PWM_DutyCycle, irqCallbackStartFunc, irqCallbackStopFunc);
                   
  ....                 
}

Debug

Debug is enabled by default on Serial.

You can also change the debugging level _PWM_LOGLEVEL_ from 0 to 4

// Don't define _PWM_LOGLEVEL_ > 0. Only for special ISR debugging only. Can hang the system.
#define _PWM_LOGLEVEL_     0

Troubleshooting

If you get compilation errors, more often than not, you may need to install a newer version of the core for Arduino boards.

Sometimes, the library will only work if you update the board core to the latest version because I am using newly added functions.

Issues

Submit issues to: STM32_Slow_PWM issues

TO DO

Search for bug and improvement.
Similar features for remaining Arduino boards

DONE

Basic hardware multi-channel PWM for STM32F/L/H/G/WB/MP1 boards such as NUCLEO_H743ZI2, NUCLEO_L552ZE_Q, NUCLEO_F767ZI, BLUEPILL_F103CB, etc., using Arduino Core for STM32
Add Table of Contents
Add functions to modify PWM settings on-the-fly
Fix multiple-definitions linker error. Drop src_cpp and src_h directories
Add example multiFileProject to demo for multiple-file project
Improve accuracy by using float, instead of uint32_t for dutycycle
Optimize library code by using reference-passing instead of value-passing
Fix reattachInterrupt() bug. Check bugfix: reattachInterrupt() pass wrong frequency value to setFrequency() #19
DutyCycle to be optionally updated at the end current PWM period instead of immediately.
Display informational warning only when _PWM_LOGLEVEL_ > 3
