[En-Nut-Discussion] Cycle counter based NutMicroDelay Implementation problems

[Ole Reinhardt]

Hi all,

The Cortex implementation used the System Core Debug unit CPU Cycle
counter to implement a high precise NutMicroDelay() function.

Unfortunately on the LPC CPUs it seems that the Core Debug registers may
not be user programmed which caused NutMicroDelay to freeze the system.

Curiously it works if a JTAG Debugger is connected.

As long as this function does not work reliable it is disabled by
default and the old NutMicroDelay implemetation is used.

Use the new config option "NUT_MICRODELAY_CM3_CYCCNT" in the
RTOS->TimerManagem section to re-enable it.

Best regards,

Ole
