PAUSEUS Using a 16MHz Oscillator

Hi,

I am sure this question or a similar one has been posted before, but I can't find it. I'm using a 16 MHz internal oscillator and according to the 2.60 PBP manual the minimum pause I can get is 5us. Now, to obtain a shorter delay the manual recommends using ASM....ENDASM. Can somebody enlight me on how to do this?

Thank you,

Robert

Hi,
At 16MHz one instruction cycle is 250ns. To get 1us delay you could do

Code:

---

ASM
  NOP
  NOP
  NOP
  NOP
ENDASM

---

Any longer and you'd probably set up a loop or use some other tricks.

Nice!

Can I use this ASM code inside a IF....ENDIF condition? For example,

IF something

ASM
NOP
NOP
NOP
NOP
ENDASM

ENDIF

Yes, of course you can.

Thanks. I'll try that.

just think the IF ... ENDIF will take some time ... ( especially if "something" is a complex expression ) ...

This might be a great opportunity to utilize an O-scope :-]
Have fun!
