50 The functions in this header file implement simple delay loops
51 that perform a busy-waiting. They are typically used to
52 facilitate short delays in the program execution. They are
53 implemented as count-down loops with a well-known CPU cycle
54 count per loop iteration. As such, no other processing can
55 occur simultaneously. It should be kept in mind that the
56 functions described here do not disable interrupts.
57
58 In general, for long delays, the use of hardware timers is
59 much preferrable, as they free the CPU, and allow for
60 concurrent processing of other events while the timer is
61 running. However, in particular for very short delays, the
62 overhead of setting up a hardware timer is too much compared
63 to the overall delay time.
64
65 Two inline functions are provided for the actual delay algorithms.
