Question

Using DMA to read GPIOx_IDR on STM32F0xx

Hi,

before I try myself I would like to ask you whether it is possible to use a timer to start a DMA that reads from the GPIOx_IDR register into a memory location and whether the source would be a peripheral or memory endpoint.

Any other suggestion on how to sample two input lines would be welcome, the maximum rate should be around 800kHz. The MCU would have to be an STM32F0xx.

I hope you can help,

Regards,

Kilian

    It works on all STM32 platforms I've tried it on. Not technically a M2M operation, I don't think the F0 has the same APBx/DMAx issues the others do. Recommend you just try it.

    Tips, Buy me a coffee, or three.. PayPal Venmo (See Profile) Up vote any posts that you find helpful, it shows what's working..

    Works! Here is the configuration:

    ...

        /* Enable DMA1 clock */

        RCC_AHBPeriphClockCmd(RCC_AHBPeriph_DMA1, ENABLE);

        DMA_DeInit(DMA1_Channel3);

        DMA_InitStructure.DMA_PeripheralBaseAddr = (uint32_t)&(GPIOA->IDR);

        DMA_InitStructure.DMA_MemoryBaseAddr = (uint32_t)DMABuffer;

        DMA_InitStructure.DMA_DIR = DMA_DIR_PeripheralSRC;

        DMA_InitStructure.DMA_BufferSize = 1;

        DMA_InitStructure.DMA_PeripheralInc = DMA_PeripheralInc_Disable;

        DMA_InitStructure.DMA_MemoryInc = DMA_MemoryInc_Enable;

        DMA_InitStructure.DMA_PeripheralDataSize = DMA_PeripheralDataSize_Byte;

        DMA_InitStructure.DMA_MemoryDataSize = DMA_MemoryDataSize_Byte;

        DMA_InitStructure.DMA_Mode = DMA_Mode_Normal;

        DMA_InitStructure.DMA_Priority = DMA_Priority_High;

        DMA_InitStructure.DMA_M2M = DMA_M2M_Disable;

        DMA_Init(DMA1_Channel3, &DMA_InitStructure);

        DMA_ITConfig(DMA1_Channel3,DMA_IT_TE|DMA_IT_TC,ENABLE);

        /* Enable DMA1 Channel3 */

       // enable later

        // enable clock

        RCC_APB2PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB2Periph_TIM16, ENABLE);

        TIM_Cmd(TIM16, DISABLE);

        /* TIM configuration */

        TIM_InitStructure.TIM_Period =_SAMPLING_TIMER_FREQ_DIV;

        TIM_InitStructure.TIM_Prescaler = SystemCoreClock/(_SAMPLING_TIMER_FREQ) - 1;

        TIM_InitStructure.TIM_ClockDivision = TIM_CKD_DIV1;

        TIM_InitStructure.TIM_CounterMode = TIM_CounterMode_Up;

        TIM_TimeBaseInit(TIM16, &TIM_InitStructure);

        TIM_DMACmd(TIM16, TIM_DMA_Update, ENABLE);

       

        // TIM_Cmd(TIM16, DISABLE); // enable later

    ...

    Thanks for your help,

    Kilian
