3.11.1 Advanced-control timer (TIM1)
The advanced-control timer (TIM1) can be seen as a three-phase PWM multiplexed on six
channels. It has complementary PWM outputs with programmable inserted dead times. It
can also be seen as a complete general-purpose timer. The four independent channels can
be used for:
• Input capture
• Output compare
• PWM generation (edge or center-aligned modes)
• One-pulse mode output
If configured as a standard 16-bit timer, it has the same features as the TIMx timer. If
configured as the 16-bit PWM generator, it has full modulation capability (0-100%).
The counter can be frozen in debug mode.
Many features are shared with those of the standard timers which have the same
architecture. The advanced control timer can therefore work together with the other timers
via the Timer Link feature for synchronization or event chaining.
3.11.2 General-purpose timers (TIM3, TIM14..17)
There are five synchronizable general-purpose timers embedded in the STM32F070xB/6
devices (see Table 5 for differences). Each general-purpose timer can be used to generate
PWM outputs, or as simple time base.
TIM3
STM32F070xB/6 devices feature one synchronizable 4-channel general-purpose timer.
TIM3 is based on a 16-bit auto-reload up/downcounter and a 16-bit prescaler. It features
four independent channels each for input capture/output compare, PWM or one-pulse mode
output. This gives up to 12 input captures/output compares/PWMs on the largest packages.
The TIM3 general-purpose timer can work with the TIM1 advanced-control timer via the
Timer Link feature for synchronization or event chaining.
TIM3 has an independent DMA request generation.
This timer is capable of handling quadrature (incremental) encoder signals and the digital
outputs from 1 to 3 hall-effect sensors.
The counter can be frozen in debug mode.
TIM14
This timer is based on a 16-bit auto-reload upcounter and a 16-bit prescaler.
TIM14 features one single channel for input capture/output compare, PWM or one-pulse
mode output.
Its counter can be frozen in debug mode.
TIM15, TIM16 and TIM17
These timers are based on a 16-bit auto-reload upcounter and a 16-bit prescaler.
TIM15 has two independent channels, whereas TIM16 and TIM17 feature one single
channel for input capture/output compare, PWM or one-pulse mode output.
