Possible to trigger timer events from software on STM32F4?

[arnold_w]

I am working with the STM32F4 family. External interrupts have a register called EXTI->SWIER that makes it possible to generate external interrupt from software. Do the timers have something similar, a register that I can use to generate timer interrupts in software?

Hi @arnold_w​ ,

Correct you have to use the TIMx_EGR as suggested by Jan.

Just do not forget to enable the interrupt in TIMx_DIER register.
