@par Example Description
This example shows how to configure the TIM peripheral in PWM (Pulse Width Modulation)
mode with clock prescaler selection feature activated using __HAL_RCC_TIMCLKPRESCALER()
which allow to double the output frequency.
SystemCoreClock is set to 180 MHz for STM32F4xx Devices.
In this example TIM3 input clock (TIM3CLK) is set to 4 * APB1 clock (PCLK1), since
Timer clock prescalers selection activated (TIMPRE bit from RCC_DCKCFGR register is set).
TIM3CLK = 4 * PCLK1
PCLK1 = HCLK / 4
=> TIM3CLK = HCLK = SystemCoreClock
For TIM3CLK equal to SystemCoreClock and prescaler equal to (5 - 1), TIM3 counter clock
is computed as follows:
TIM3 counter clock = TIM3CLK / (Prescaler + 1)
= SystemCoreClock / (Prescaler + 1)
= 36MHz
For ARR equal to (1800 - 1), the TIM3 output clock is computed as follows:
TIM3 output clock = TIM3 counter clock / (ARR + 1)
= 20KHZ
The TIM3 CCR1 register value is equal to 900, so the TIM3 Channel 1 generates a
PWM signal with a frequency equal to 20 KHz and a duty cycle equal to 50%:
TIM3 Channel1 duty cycle = (TIM3_CCR1/ TIM3_ARR + 1)* 100 = 50%
The PWM waveforms can be displayed using an oscilloscope.
@note Care must be taken when using HAL_Delay(), this function provides accurate delay (in milliseconds)
based on variable incremented in SysTick ISR. This implies that if HAL_Delay() is called from
a peripheral ISR process, then the SysTick interrupt must have higher priority (numerically lower)
than the peripheral interrupt. Otherwise the caller ISR process will be blocked.
To change the SysTick interrupt priority you have to use HAL_NVIC_SetPriority() function.
@note The application need to ensure that the SysTick time base is always set to 1 millisecond
to have correct HAL operation.

@par Hardware and Software environment
- This example runs on STM32F446xx devices.
- This example has been tested with STMicroelectronics STM32446E-EVAL
board and can be easily tailored to any other supported device
and development board.
- STM32446E-EVAL Set-up
Connect the following pins to an oscilloscope to monitor the different waveforms:
- TIM3_CH1 : PB.04
