Description

Timer component for high resolution time measurement and wait routines.

The component uses a Win32 multimedia timer and the time stamp counter of the Pentium processor for timing. Using the time stamp counter only for a wait routine adds a lot of CPU load. Therefor this component uses a multimedia timer for long time timing. As soon the remaining time to wait is smaller than the accuracy of the multimedia timer, the component switches to the time stamp counter. This reduces the CPU load to a minimum still achieving high accuracy. The high resolution timer can be selected between the time stamp counter introduced with the Pentium processor or the high performance counter of Windows.
