TIM Get Time BLOCK

This block supports time measurement using Timer peripheral on STM microcontrollers.

Contents

• Inputs
• Outputs
• Block parameters
• CubeMX settings

Inputs

None

Outputs

• TimeDiff – time difference between sequent executions of the block
• Timer counter – actual timer counter value

Block parameters

• Get time difference – choose time unit and timer (timebase source is used for miliseconds unit)
• Enable output tick – enable timer counter block output
• Timer – timer peripheral number
• Timer clock (MHz) – timer base clock

CubeMX settings

• Below settings apply only if chosen time unit is microseconds!
• Timers->TIMx->Clock Source->Internal clock
• Timers->TIMx->NVIC Settings Tab->TIMx global interrupt/TIMx update interrupt
