A monotonic clock / counter definition.

Correctness

The trait enforces that proper time-math is implemented between Instant and Duration. This is a requirement on the time library that the user chooses to use.

Required Associated Types

type Instant: Ord + Copy + Add<Self::Duration, Output = Self::Instant> + Sub<Self::Duration, Output = Self::Instant, Output = Self::Duration> + Sub

The type for instant, defining an instant in time.

Note: In all APIs in RTIC that use instants from this monotonic, this type will be used.

type Duration

The type for duration, defining an duration of time.

Note: In all APIs in RTIC that use duration from this monotonic, this type will be used.

Provided Associated Constants

const DISABLE_INTERRUPT_ON_EMPTY_QUEUE: bool = true

This tells RTIC if it should disable the interrupt bound to the monotonic if there are no scheduled tasks. One may want to set this to false if one is using the on_interrupt method to perform housekeeping and need overflow interrupts to happen, such as when extending a 16 bit timer to 32/64 bits, even if there are no scheduled tasks.

Required Methods

fn now(&mut self) -> Self::Instant

Get the current time.

fn set_compare(&mut self, instant: Self::Instant)

Set the compare value of the timer interrupt.

Note: This method does not need to handle race conditions of the monotonic, the timer queue in RTIC checks this.

fn clear_compare_flag(&mut self)

Clear the compare interrupt flag.

fn zero() -> Self::Instant

The time at time zero. Used by RTIC before the monotonic has been initialized.

unsafe fn reset(&mut self)

Optionally resets the counter to zero for a fixed baseline in a system.

This method will be called exactly once by the RTIC runtime after #[init] returns and before tasks start.

Safety

Correctness

The user may not call this method.

Provided Methods

fn on_interrupt(&mut self)

Optional. Commonly used for performing housekeeping of a timer when it has been extended, e.g. a 16 bit timer extended to 32/64 bits. This will be called at the end of the interrupt handler after all other operations have finished.

fn enable_timer(&mut self)

Optional. This is used to save power, this is called when the Monotonic interrupt is enabled.

fn disable_timer(&mut self)

Optional. This is used to save power, this is called when the Monotonic interrupt is disabled.

Object Safety

This trait is not object safe.
