This is a collection of code snippets for various features on the STM8S family microcontrollers (specifically the STM8S003F3). These are written against the STM8S/A SPL headers and compiled using SDCC.
Some of this controller's functions aren't particularly intuitive to program, so I'm dumping samples for future reference here. These are based on the STM8S documentation:
// Configure the clock for maximum speed on the 16MHz HSI oscillator
// At startup the clock output is divided by 8
CLK->CKDIVR = 0x0;Note that on the STM8S003F3, TIM1_CH1 output requires configuring an Alternate Pin Function (see next snippet).
const uint16_t tim1_prescaler = 0;
TIM1->PSCRH = (tim1_prescaler >> 8);
TIM1->PSCRL = (tim1_prescaler & 0xFF);
const uint16_t tim1_auto_reload = 16000; // 1KHz assuming at 16MHz clock
TIM1->ARRH = (tim1_auto_reload >> 8);
TIM1->ARRL = (tim1_auto_reload & 0xFF);
const uint16_t tim1_compare_reg1 = 4000; // 25% duty cycle
TIM1->CCR1H = (tim1_compare_reg1 >> 8);
TIM1->CCR1L = (tim1_compare_reg1 & 0xFF);
// Set up compare channel 1
TIM1->CCER1 = TIM1_CCER1_CC1E; // Enable compare channel 1 output
TIM1->CCMR1 = TIM1_OCMODE_PWM1; // Make OC1REF high when counter is less than CCR1 and low when higher
TIM1->EGR |= TIM1_EGR_UG; // Generate an update event to register new settings
TIM1->BKR = TIM1_BKR_MOE; // Enable TIM1 output channels
TIM1->CR1 = TIM1_CR1_CEN; // Enable the counterSome pins on the STM8S003 series are marked as having an "alternate function after remap". These are only documented in the datasheet, with register description under Option bytes.
As option bytes are stored in eeprom, they're a little more involved to set than regular registers. Eeprom can be addressed directly for reading, but needs to be unlocked before it can be written.
Option bytes are intended to be programmed once when uploading code to the chip, but they can be changed "on the fly" as the datasheet mentions:
// Set a bit in the Alternate Function Register (AFR) to switch pin-mapping
// This is stored in flash and is not a directly writable register
{
const uint32_t AFR_DATA_ADDRESS = 0x4803;
const uint32_t AFR_REQUIRED_VALUE = 0x1; // Enable TIM1_CH1 pin
const uint16_t valueAndComplement = FLASH_ReadOptionByte(AFR_DATA_ADDRESS);
const uint8_t currentValue = valueAndComplement >> 8;
// Update value if the current option byte is corrupt or the wrong value
if (valueAndComplement == 0 || currentValue != AFR_REQUIRED_VALUE) {
FLASH_Unlock(FLASH_MEMTYPE_DATA);
FLASH_ProgramOptionByte(AFR_DATA_ADDRESS, AFR_REQUIRED_VALUE);
FLASH_Lock(FLASH_MEMTYPE_DATA);
}
}This works in a pinch and avoids an extra programming step, but switching function repeatedly during run-time is probably a bad idea:
-
There's likely an endurance issue as each change is written to flash/eeprom (datasheet claims 100k writes).
-
Writing some of the option bytes requires two writes: one for the data and one for its complement. If a reset occurs between the two writes, the option bytes need to be reprogrammed before the SWIM interface can program the chip again (stm8flash and ST Visual Programmer can still program the option bytes in this state, but error when trying to program the main flash).

@atochukwu0 - is your reference from an STM8 chip, or something else? It's certainly possible on more advanced chips from other ranges and brands to do this with a single timer, but the STM8 range is fairly basic
