Posted on February 19, 2014 at 13:50Good morning, i have to drive WS2812 led wich require a square wave with this timing

T0H = 0.35 us, T1H = 0.70 us and TH+TL = 1.25 us.
I set up timer4 to generate square wave on channel 2 and i'im planning to use dma to copy to the TIM4->CCR2 the time value for te current bit from a prepoulated array. Here is my current code
GPIO_InitTypeDef GPIO_InitStructure;
TIM_TimeBaseInitTypeDef TIM_TimeBaseStructure;
TIM_OCInitTypeDef TIM_OCInitStructure;
DMA_InitTypeDef DMA_InitStructure;
//Enable TIM4,GPIOD,DMA2 Clock
RCC_APB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_APB1Periph_TIM4,ENABLE);
RCC_AHB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_AHB1Periph_GPIOD,ENABLE);
RCC_AHB1PeriphClockCmd(RCC_AHB1Periph_DMA2,ENABLE);
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Mode = GPIO_Mode_AF;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Speed = GPIO_Speed_50MHz;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_OType = GPIO_OType_PP;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_PuPd = GPIO_PuPd_DOWN;
GPIO_InitStructure.GPIO_Pin = GPIO_Pin_13;
GPIO_PinAFConfig(GPIOD, GPIO_PinSource13, GPIO_AF_TIM4);
GPIO_Init(GPIOD, &GPIO_InitStructure);
TIM_OCStructInit(&TIM_OCInitStructure);
TIM_TimeBaseStructure.TIM_Prescaler = 0;
TIM_TimeBaseStructure.TIM_CounterMode = TIM_CounterMode_Up;
TIM_TimeBaseStructure.TIM_ClockDivision = TIM_CKD_DIV1;
TIM_TimeBaseStructure.TIM_Period = RGB_PULSE_PERIOD;
TIM_TimeBaseInit(TIM4, &TIM_TimeBaseStructure);
/* PWM1 Mode configuration: Channel2 */
TIM_OCInitStructure.TIM_OCMode = TIM_OCMode_PWM1;
TIM_OCInitStructure.TIM_OutputState = TIM_OutputState_Enable;
TIM_OCInitStructure.TIM_Pulse = 1;
TIM_OCInitStructure.TIM_OCPolarity = TIM_OCPolarity_High;
TIM_OC2Init(TIM4, &TIM_OCInitStructure);
/* DMA2 Channel 0 Config */
DMA_DeInit(DMA2_Stream0);
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_Channel = DMA_Channel_0;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_PeripheralBaseAddr = (uint32_t)&TIM4->CCR2;//(uint32_t)0x40000838;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_Memory0BaseAddr = (uint32_t)Ch1Buffer;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_DIR = DMA_DIR_MemoryToPeripheral;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_BufferSize = RGB_BUFFER_SIZE;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_PeripheralInc = DMA_PeripheralInc_Disable;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_MemoryInc = DMA_MemoryInc_Enable;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_PeripheralDataSize = DMA_PeripheralDataSize_HalfWord;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_MemoryDataSize = DMA_MemoryDataSize_HalfWord;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_Mode = DMA_Mode_Normal;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_Priority = DMA_Priority_High;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_FIFOMode = DMA_FIFOMode_Disable;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_FIFOThreshold = DMA_FIFOThreshold_Full;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_MemoryBurst = DMA_MemoryBurst_Single;
DMA_InitStructure.DMA_PeripheralBurst = DMA_PeripheralBurst_Single;
DMA_Init(DMA2_Stream0,&DMA_InitStructure);
TIM_DMACmd(TIM4, TIM_DMA_CC2, ENABLE);
followed by the call of this function
void RgbSendFrame(uint8_t Channel, uint8_t* Buffer, uint16_t Size)
{
uint8_t i,j,bit;
bit = 0x80;
j = 0;
if(Channel & 0x01)
{
while(Size)
{
for (i = 0; i < 8; i++)
{
if(*Buffer & bit)
{
Ch1Buffer[j] = RGB_PULSE_1;
}else
{
Ch1Buffer[j] = RGB_PULSE_0;
}
j++;
bit >>= 1;
}
bit = 0x80;
Buffer++;
Size--;
}
while(j < RGB_BUFFER_SIZE)
{
Ch1Buffer[j] = 0;
j++;
}
TIM4->CCR2 = 1;
DMA_SetCurrDataCounter(DMA2_Stream0, RGB_BUFFER_SIZE);
DMA_Cmd(DMA2_Stream0,ENABLE);
TIM_Cmd(TIM4, ENABLE);
LedOn(2);
while(DMA_GetFlagStatus(DMA2_Stream0,DMA_FLAG_TCIF0) == RESET);
LedOff(2);
TIM_Cmd(TIM4, DISABLE);
DMA_Cmd(DMA2_Stream0, DISABLE);
DMA_ClearFlag(DMA2_Stream0,DMA_FLAG_TCIF0);
}//Fine Canale1
}
Nothing works, the code get stuck while waiting for the dma to complete transfer. Some help would be great
