There are a thousand microseconds in a -millisecond, and a million microseconds in a second. - - - -Currently, the largest value that will produce an accurate delay is -16383. This could change in future Arduino releases. For delays -longer than a few thousand microseconds, you should use delay() -instead. - - - -Syntax ------- - -delayMicroseconds(us) - - - -Parameters ----------- - -us: the number of microseconds to pause (*unsigned int*) - - - -Returns -------- - -None - - - -Example -------- - -:: - - - int outPin = 8; // digital pin 8 - - void setup() - { - pinMode(outPin, OUTPUT); // sets the digital pin as output - } - - void loop() - { - digitalWrite(outPin, HIGH); // sets the pin on - delayMicroseconds(50); // pauses for 50 microseconds - digitalWrite(outPin, LOW); // sets the pin off - delayMicroseconds(50); // pauses for 50 microseconds - } - - - -configures pin number 8 to work as an output pin. It sends a train -of pulses with 100 microseconds period. - - - -Caveats and Known Issues ------------------------- - -This function works very accurately in the range 3 microseconds and -up. We cannot assure that delayMicroseconds will perform precisely -for smaller delay-times. - - - -As of Arduino 0018, delayMicroseconds() no longer disables -interrupts. - - - -See also --------- - - -- `millis <http://arduino.cc/en/Reference/Millis>`_\ () -- `micros <http://arduino.cc/en/Reference/Micros>`_\ () -- `delay <http://arduino.cc/en/Reference/Delay>`_\ () - - |
