TIM1_BKIN noise immunity problem

Hello,

I am using STM32VLDISCOVERY board. We have configured TIM1 in PWM mode with break feature enabled. But the BKIN input seems really sensitive and catches noise from the system resulting in a trip. Is there any data that says how much voltage on TIM1_BKIN pin (configured active low) will result in a fault detection ? Or is it the same ViL level as any other GPIO ?

Currently we have the pin configured as input_floating and externally pulled up to Vcc. We suspect that this external trace connectin BKIN and Vcc can catch up noise. If I configure the pin as internal pullup, will it still function as TIM1_BKIN ?

Thanks

Yes. Would this pin have different input level, it would be mentioned in the Datasheet.

Yes, but the internal pullup is relatively weak, nominally 40kOhm.

Also even if one is using an external pull-up/down, turning on the internal parallel one will add additional noise immunity for a path from the external one to the internal one, which is located in a chip itself.
