Basic timers (TIM6&TIM7)

register is set, setting the UG bit generates an update event UEV, but the UIF flag is not set
(so no interrupt or DMA request is sent).
When an update event occurs, all the registers are updated and the update flag (UIF bit in
the TIMx_SR register) is set (depending on the URS bit):
•
The buffer of the prescaler is reloaded with the preload value (contents of the
TIMx_PSC register)
•
The auto-reload shadow register is updated with the preload value (TIMx_ARR)
The following figures show some examples of the counter behavior for different clock
frequencies when TIMx_ARR = 0x36.
