RE: [avr-gcc-list] (Newbie)2.Delay function not working as required

Hi,

Why don’t you use the avr-libc delays, _delay_ms()?

I have myself used it in a for-loop to produce long s-range delays in some project. For this long delays I guess though you should use timers and interrupts.

Hi
We tried to put delay in our program but it is not that reliable,
When we do
for(char i=0x00;i<100;i++)
delayms(100);

The output which we get is not 100*100ms but something unexpected. The variable i is not used anywhere else in program. Is it that the optimisation is causing problem, if yes please tell how to remive it.

Thanks
Sumeet
