MSP430L092: How can I add millis() function code for msp430l092?

Part Number: MSP430L092
Other Parts Discussed in Thread: ENERGIA

I prepared a project that contains millis() function to determine time interval between two signals on Arduino Uno but I intend to replace Arduino Uno with msp430l092 microcontroller. I used ADC example code that is c++ for reading my sensor value on IAR Embedded Workbench but I couldn't use millis() function because it is undefined for msp430l092 library. Can someone help me about it please?

  • If it will work for your processor, use Energia which is an arduino fork for launchpads.

    Otherwise use systick and set it to fire every millisecond. Increment a 32 bit counter. millis() simply returns the value of the counter.

    This is the driverlib example where I have added the Tick and millis().

    Changing from 0.5 sec to .001 sec is left for the interested student. 8^)

     * a one second period. Once setup, the application will go into LPM3

     * This program runs infinitely until manually halted by the user.
