@par Example Description
This example provides a description of how to use DMA with TIMER Update request
to transfer Data from memory to TIMER Capture Compare Register 3 (CCR3).
The following configuration values are used in this example:
- TIM3CLK = SystemCoreClock
- Counter repetition = 3
- Prescaler = 0
- TIM3 counter clock = SystemCoreClock /2
- SystemCoreClock is set to 180 MHz for STM32F4xx
The objective is to configure TIM3 channel 3 to generate complementary PWM
(Pulse Width Modulation) signal with a frequency equal to 17.57 KHz, and a variable
duty cycle that is changed by the DMA after a specific number of Update DMA request.
The number of this repetitive requests is defined by the TIM3 Repetition counter,
each 4 Update Requests, the TIM3 Channel 3 Duty Cycle changes to the next new
value defined by the aCCValue_Buffer.
The PWM waveform can be displayed using an oscilloscope.
In nominal mode (except at start) , it should looks like this :

@note PWM signal frequency value mentioned above is theoretical (obtained when the system clock frequency
is exactly 180 MHz). Since the generated system clock frequency may vary from one board to another observed
PWM signal frequency might be slightly different.
@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)
@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.
- In this example, the clock is set to 180 MHz.
- This example has been tested with STMicroelectronics NUCLEO-446ZE Rev.B
board and can be easily tailored to any other supported device
and development board.
- NUCLEO-446ZE Set-up
- Connect the TIM3 pin to an oscilloscope to monitor the different waveforms:
- TIM3 CH3 (PB.00)
@par How to use it ?
In order to make the program work, you must do the following :
- Open your preferred toolchain
- Rebuild all files and load your image into target memory
- Run the example
