Timer RusPiRo crate

This crate provides simple functions to pause execution on the current core for a given amount of time. It uses the free-running counter of the Raspberry Pi to provide micro second accurate pause timings.

Features

pi3 | active to use the proper timer MMIO base memory address for Raspberry Pi 3 when accessing the system timer peripheral pi4_low | active to use the proper timer MMIO base memory address for Raspberry Pi 4 in Low-Peripheral mode when accessing the system timer peripheral pi4_high | active to use the proper timer MMIO base memory address for Raspberry Pi 4 in High-Peripheral mode when accessing the system timer peripheral

Usage

To use the crate just add the following dependency to your Cargo.toml file:

[dependencies]
ruspiro-timer = "0.6.0"

Once done the access to the timer functions is available in your rust files like so:

use rusprio_timer::*;

fn foo() {
    sleep(Duration::from_millis(1)); // pause for 1 millisecond
    sleepcycles(200); // pause for 200 CPU cycles
}

Scheduling the execution of a function/closure is as simple as this:

use ruspiro_timer::*;

fn foo() {
    // print after 100 milliseconds
    schedule(Duration:from_millis(100), || println!("delayed execution"));
}
