Has anyone done this? I have an application that I am converting to run on the ARTX OS and timers 0 and 1 are already heavily taxed. Perhaps it is just a matter of configuring the VIC etc in ARTX_Config.c Thanks Rich
I have not used the ARTX or the LPC2138, but it looks to me like it could be done. You just have to define the configuration macros to use the RTC. One tick per second is of course too slow to be used as OS tick, so I am assuming that you are not using the RTC for it's intended purpose. I have written a small (<2kB) kernel for ARM which allows you to use any time base you have available. You are welcome to try it if you like - it is absolutely free (and also with absolutely no guarantees)! Sauli
