I don't exactly know where in the code depends on 62.5ms, but I would 
also like to this be configurable. I have one project where it would be 
a good idea to have /2 for it, but I didn't try to modify it back then 
as I wasn't sure what would be broken by changing it.

Does anyone know are there any code pieces in Nut/OS depending on this 
one?...
