LED Blinking With STM32F103R6 Using SysTick

Using a timer interrupt allow any task to become active at any specific time. It makes the main program loop to do other tasks without waiting. SysTick is a timer bases on interrupt inside the STM32 ARM micro-controller.

Simulating Program In Proteus

In this introductory example, I use this time to toggle an LED. LED blinking is placed inside the SysTick function. It left the main program loop blank. We can place any task inside the main program loop, for example a button pressing event.

 

Code Configuration Wizard

Code configuration wizard allow the programmer to generate code by selecting and setting any features of the STM32 micro-controller. In this example, I select PC0 as an digital output connects to the LED. Its core source codes are generated by IOC.
