12.10.1.1SysTick Control and Status
Name: SYST_CSR
Access: Read /Write
Reset: 0x00 0000000
The SysTick SYST_CSR enables the SysTick features.
• COUNTFLAG: Count Flag
Returns 1 if the timer counted to 0 since the last time this was read.
• CLKSOURCE: Clock Source
Indicates the clock source:
0: External Clock.
1: Processor Clock.
• TICKINT: SysTick Exception Request Enable
Enables a SysTick exception request:
0: Counting down to zero does not assert the SysTick exception request.
1: Counting down to zero asserts the SysTick exception request.
The software can use COUNTFLAG to determine if SysTick has ever counted to zero.
• ENABLE: Counter Enable
Enables the counter:
0: Counter disabled.
1: Counter enabled.
When ENABLE is set to 1, the counter loads the RELOAD value from the SYST_RVR and then counts down. On reaching
0, it sets the COUNTFLAG to 1 and optionally asserts the SysTick depending on the value of TICKINT. It then loads the
RELOAD value again, and begins counting.
