st(3)

✨ NAME ✨

st — it's the System Timer access page, bestie 💖 (yes, that's st(3), the bcm2835 library one, not the terminal emulator, don't get it twisted 🫶)

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

okay so here's the whole squad, like literally every function on this page:

uint64_t bcm2835_st_read (void)
void bcm2835_st_delay (uint64_t offset_micros, uint64_t micros)

🎀 Functions 🎀

• uint64_t bcm2835_st_read (void) — reads the System Timer Counter, gives you a number back 💅
• void bcm2835_st_delay (uint64_t offset_micros, uint64_t micros) — makes you wait, but make it precise ⏳

---

🦋 Detailed Description 🦋

So the whole vibe of this page? It allows access to and delays using the System Timer Counter. That's it, that's the tea ☕ — you can peek at the counter, and you can sit and wait for a set amount of time. Iconic, lowkey essential, no cap 🔥

👑 Function Documentation 👑

💜 void bcm2835_st_delay (uint64_t offset_micros, uint64_t micros) [extern]

This one delays for the specified number of microseconds with offset. Like, you're not just napping, you're napping relative to an offset, okay? Very main character energy ⏰✨

Parameters

• offset_micros — the Offset in microseconds 🌸
• micros — the Delay in microseconds 🌈

ngl both of these are microseconds, so keep your units straight or the vibes will be off fr fr 😭

🍓 uint64_t bcm2835_st_read (void) [extern]

Reads the System Timer Counter register. That's the whole job, and she does it flawlessly 💅

Returns

• the value read from the System Timer Counter Lower 32 bits register ⭐

heads up bestie: it's the Lower 32 bits register specifically, so don't be out here expecting the full 64-bit picture from this one 🙈
