@par Example Description
This example shows how to use the TIM peripheral to measure the frequency of
an external signal.
The TIM1CLK frequency is set to SystemCoreClock (Hz), the Prescaler is 0,
so the TIM1 counter clock is SystemCoreClock (Hz).
SystemCoreClock is set to 180 MHz for STM32F469xx Devices.
TIM1 is configured in Input Capture Mode: the external signal is connected to
TIM1 Channel2 used as input pin.
To measure the frequency we use the TIM1 CC2 interrupt request, so in the
TIM1_CC_IRQHandler routine, the frequency of the external signal is computed.
The "uwFrequency" variable contains the external signal frequency:
uwFrequency = TIM1 counter clock / uwDiffCapture (Hz),
where "uwDiffCapture" is the difference between two consecutive TIM1 captures.
The minimum frequency value to measure is TIM1 counter clock / CCR MAX
= 180 MHz / 65535
Due to TIM1_CC_IRQHandler processing time (around 2.5us), the maximum
frequency value to measure is around 400kHz.
@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.
@note The connection of the LCD reset pin to a dedicated GPIO PK7 instead of the STM32F469 NRST pin may cause residual display on LCD with applications/examples that do not require display.
The LCD clear can be ensured by hardware through the boards power off/power on or by software calling the BSP_LCD_Reset() function.

@par Hardware and Software environment
- This example runs on STM32F469xx/STM32F479xx devices.
- In this example, the clock is set to 180 MHz.
- This example has been tested and validated with STMicroelectronics STM32469I-EVAL RevC
board and can be easily tailored to any other supported device
and development board.
- STM32469I-EVAL Set-up
- Connect the external signal to measure to the TIM1 CH2 pin (PA.09 - Pin 43 of CN6 connector).
@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
