Delay Functions

This document describes delay functions for PIC microcontrollers. It provides function prototypes and notes for delay functions that allow delays in multiples of instruction cycles. Example delays are provided to demonstrate how to calculate delays based on the instruction cycle time and multiplier used in the function.

DELAY FUNCTIONS

The information in this document is obtained from the following Microchip manuals:
PIC18Fxx2 Datasheet
PICmicro 18C MCU Family Reference Manual
MPLAB C18 C Compiler Libraries
Function Prototypes:
For a detailed description of these functions, please see:
Section 4.5 Delay Functions, in MPLAB C18 C Compiler Libraries manual.
#include <delays.h>
void Delay1TCY

( void );

// Delay one instruction cycle.

void Delay10TCYx

( unsigned char unit );

// Delay in multiples of 10 instruction cycles.

void Delay100TCYx ( unsigned char unit );

// Delay in multiples of 100 instruction cycles.

void Delay1KTCYx

// Delay in multiples of 1,000 instruction cycles.

( unsigned char unit );

void Delay10KTCYx ( unsigned char unit );

// Delay in multiples of 10,000 instruction cycles.

Notes:
1. The letter x in the function name above stands for times or multiplication. It is not to be replaced by a
number as done in some other function names.
2. unit is an 8-bit value in the range [0,255]. unit = 0 is equivalent to unit = 256.
3. TCY stands for instruction cycle. For 18F252/452 running at 20MHz oscillator frequency,

TCY =

4
= 0.2 s
20 MHz

4. Some examples:
// gives a delay of 0.2 s (implemented as a single NOP instruction).

Delay1TCY ();
(50);

// gives a delay of 10 0.2 s 50 = 100 s

Delay100TCYx (100);

// gives a delay of 100 0.2 s 100 = 2ms

Delay1KTCYx

// gives a delay of 1000 0.2 s 250 = 50ms

Delay10TCYx

Delay10KTCYx

(250);
(0);

// gives a delay of 10000 0.2 s 256 = 0.512 s
