Application note
STM32F0, STM32F1, STM32F2, STM32F4, STM32L1 series,
STM32F30x, STM32F3x8, STM32F373 lines timer overview
Introduction
The purpose of this document: is detailed hereafter;
 Present an overview of the timer peripherals in the STM32F0, STM32F1, STM32F2,
STM32F4 and STM32L1 microcontroller series, STM32F30x and STM32F3x8,
STM32F37x microcontrollers lines. STM32F30x corresponds to STM32F301, STM32F302
and STM32F303 lines.
 Describe the various modes and specific features of the timers, such as clock sources.
 Explain how to use the available modes and features.
 Explain how to compute the time base in each configuration.
 Describe the timer synchronization sequences and the advanced features for motor
control applications, in addition to the general-purpose timer modes.
For each mode, typical configurations are presented and examples of how to use the modes
are provided.
In the rest of this document (unless otherwise specified), the term STM32xx is used to refer
to the products listed in Table 1.
