DMA Modules• The STM32 has two DMA peripherals each of which

has multiple inde- pendently configurable “channels” (7 for DMA1 and 5 for DMA2). A channel is roughly the hardware realization of a transaction.

• To initialize DMA be- tween a peripheral and memory it is necessary to configure the appropriate channel. For example, DMA1 channel 2 (3) can be used to receive (transmit) data from (to) SPI1.

DMA Settings

• Prior to utilizing the DMA peripherals, remember to enable their clocks

• Configuring a channel consists of setting appropriate parameters through a DMA_InitTypeDef structure

The parameters include the peripheral base address (e.g. ADC1->DR), the

memory address buffer, the transfer direction, the buffer size, etc. Once the

DMA channel is initialized, it must be enabled. The STM32 firmware provides

peripheral specific commands to enable a DMA transaction.

• DMA module must be activated in the module which uses DMA:

ADC_DMACmd(ADC1, ENABLE);ADC_DMARequestAfterLastTransferCmd(ADC1,ENABLE);Or

The DMA channels provided by the STM32 are each associated with

specific peripherals (See reference manual for complete documentation).

For example DMA1 channel 1 supports ADC1, TIM2_CH3, and TIM4_CH1.

DAC Module• The DAC module is a 12-bit, voltage output digital-to-

analog converter. • The DAC can be configured in 8- or 12-bit mode and

may be used in conjunction with the DMA controller. • The DAC has two output channels, each with its own

converter– DAC1 (pin PA4) and DAC2 (pin PA5) • In dual DAC channel mode, conversions could be done

independently or simultaneously when both channels are grouped together for synchronous update operations. An

• input reference pin, Vref+(shared with ADC) is available for better resolution.

Each channel has separate control

logic which is configured through a

single control register (CR). Data to be

converted by channel x are written to

data holding register (DHRx). In

response to a trigger event, DHRx is

transferred to the data output

register (DORx) and, after a settling

time, the corresponding analog value

appears at the output.

DAC Settings• The clock sources must be activated and the DAC (PA4 or

PA5) pin must be configured as “analog ”.•

• Once a DAC is initialized, data may be written using the following commands

DAC Functions (CMSIS)

Pulse Width Modulation

• PWM signal• Duty Cycle, freq.• Sinosoidal signal• Applications:– Servo driver– SMPS– etc.

Timer PWM Settings

The pulse- width pw (0..999) can be set with the following command.

The pulse- width pw (0..999) can be set with the

following command.

Test_dma_adc

• Configure ADC1 and ADC2 in simultaneous mode, Set the DMA2 to transfer the ADC results to a mem. region

• Configure TIM2-> update at 50 KHz• Configure the TIM2 output trigger so that it occurs on update

events: TIM_SelectOutputTrigger(TIM2,TIM_TRGOSource_Update);• Change the trigger in the ADC initialization code: ADC_InitStructure.ADC_ExternalTrigConv=ADC_ExternalTrigConv_T2_TRGO;

• Configure the NVIC to enable interrupt channel DMA_IRQn with the highest priority

• Write a suitable interrupt handler.

Test_dac

• Enable DAC_Channel_1• Set TIM2 interrupt 150 KHz• Configure the NVIC to enable interrupt

channel TIM2_IRQn with the highest priority• Write a suitable interrupt handler.
