This crate provides simple functions to pause execution on the current core for a given amount of time. It uses the free-running counter of the Raspberry Pi to provide micro second accurate pause timings.

ruspiro_pi3 | active to use the proper timer MMIO base memory address for Raspberry Pi 3 when accessing the system timer peripheral
To use the crate just add the following dependency to your Cargo.toml file:
toml
[dependencies]
ruspiro-timer = "0.5.0"
Once done the access to the timer functions is available in your rust files like so:
```rust use core::time::Duration use rusprio_timer:*;
fn foo() { sleep(Duration::from_millis(1)); // pause for 1 millisecond sleepcycles(200); // pause for 200 CPU cycles } ```
Scheduling the execution of a function/closure is as simple as this:
```rust use core::time::Duration; use ruspiro_timer::*;
fn foo() { // print after 100 milliseconds schedule(Duration:from_millis(100), || println!("delayed execution")); } ```
