Timeout Driver

Overview

The Timeout Driver aims to provide an abstraction interface to Timer-type peripherals such as the Timer0/1/2 peripherals and their derivatives; the Signal Measurement Timer (SMT); and the Hardware Limit Timer (HLT). On top of this hardware abstraction, the application side interface allows users to create applications that need a timeout event after a specified time. The driver can register multiple timers with different callbacks that trigger different events upon their corresponding timer expiration.

Features

In general, the Timeout driver can be used two different ways:
- Scheduled Timer mode - This mode enables users to schedule events to happen at different times. The scheduled timer can be used as a oneshot timer which runs only once, or as a periodic timer which can run repeatedly.
- Stopwatch/Cycle Counter mode - This mode enable users to measure time elapsed between or during events.

Generated Files

This driver generates the following files:

./mcc_generated_files/timer/src/timeout.c => This source file contains the function implementations of the Timeout Driver
./mcc_generated_files/timer/timeout.h => This header file contains the function prototypes of the Timeout Driver
