Servo Motor + Potentiometer with Blue Pill using STM32CubeIDE

Prerequisites

This project assumes you have already installed STM32CubeIDE. You need to have previously done a basic blink sketch with blue-pill using STM32CubeIDE. I have made a complete video from installing STM32CubeIDE to LED blink program. You can watch it by clicking this link. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kXg467nVd_A

Additional code on top of STM32CubeIDE generated code

  /* USER CODE BEGIN 2 */
  HAL_ADC_Start(&hadc1);
  HAL_TIM_PWM_Start(&htim2, TIM_CHANNEL_2);
  uint16_t readValue;
  uint16_t PWM;
  /* USER CODE END 2 */

  /* Infinite loop */
  /* USER CODE BEGIN WHILE */
  while (1)
  {
    HAL_ADC_PollForConversion(&hadc1,1000);
    readValue = HAL_ADC_GetValue(&hadc1);
    PWM = 250 + readValue/4.1;
    __HAL_TIM_SET_COMPARE(&htim2,TIM_CHANNEL_2, PWM);
    HAL_Delay(50);
