STM32U5 + PWM + DMA

[nicolas]

I'm able to generate a simple PWM signal but I wasn't able to generate arbitrary waveform with DMA (HAL_TIM_DMABurst_MultiWriteStart).

How should be configured the DMA ?

Is there an example that use PWM with DMA on STM32U5 ?

Hello @nicolas 

Please refer to the application note AN4776 to generate arbitrary waveform with DMA.

Also see the article below:

Thanks for the reply. I have already looked at this document but it's old (2019) so it doesn't account of the new GPDMA found in STM32U5. It also directly access register instead of using the HAL (does ST recommend to not use HAL ?).

The article also don't use GPDMA.

I'm now able to use HAL_TIM_PWM_Start_DMA() with GPDMA configured with SrcDataWidth = DMA_SRC_DATAWIDTH_BYTE;

But it's only works with byte, so it's very limitative for a 16 bits timer.
