In this STM32 Blue Pill user guide, we will learn how to send and receive data through SPI communication protocol between a master STM32 and a slave STM32 board. We will particularly focus on showing you three methods to receive data via SPI communication that involves polling, DMA, and interrupt methods. Therefore, we will create … Read more
In this tutorial, we will learn to use STM32 Blue Pill timer PWM mode and how to configure them to generate signals with different duty cycle and frequency. We will use an LED dimmer example to demonstrate how to setup the timer in PWM mode using STM32Cube IDE and HAL libraries along with a comprehensive … Read more
In this user guide, we will discuss how to configure STM32 Blue Pill timer module in counter mode. To use the timer as a counter, we will configure it in input-edge counter mode. In input edge capture counter mode, timers of stm32 start to count whenever an external event occurs on the input-edge capture GPIO … Read more
In this Blue Pill tutorial, we will discuss how to configure STM32 timer module in encoder mode. We will use a rotary encoder to demonstrate that how to read the encoder ticks using STM32Cube IDE and HAL libraries. In the first example, we will display encoder ticks on a serial terminal, and in the second … Read more
In this STM32 Blue Pill user guide, we will discuss how to configure timer module in input capture mode to measure the frequency of an input signal. We will program our STM32 Blue Pill in STM32 Cube IDE and build a frequency counter whereby one input capture channel will be enabled to capture an external … Read more
