A customer recently asked how he could get a SPLat working down to a time resolution of 6mS, i.e. shorter than the basic 10mS heart beat we normally use. So what we have done is to create a way of setting the rate at which the SuperTimers tick over. This can now be set to anywhere from 1mS to 255mS. To use the faster settings you would have to make sure your program is very short and tight ... there's no point having the timer period shorter that the execution time of your program. For the slower setting you can now time up to a whopping 49 days in one go, albeit with resolution reduced to 255mS. Documentation.
And here's the customer's reaction.
