    Hi Surya,

    There is multiple ways this could be done, as a base point I would advice you to look into the "sysbios" examples in the SDK, more specifically the "Clock" one. It might also be interesting for you to look into making a "sensor reading" task which you can control using a semaphore lock. For example, the task does the reading, waits for the semaphore then does another reading etc. What ever timer you then have can simply post the semaphore which allows your task to run.
