Generate Delay with Raspberry Pi Pico Timers using MicroPython

October 9, 2026

In this tutorial, we learn to use the system timer peripheral of Raspberry Pi Pico. As we mentioned earlier, This development board comes with RP2040’s microcontrollers. This RP2040 MCU has a system timer peripheral that provides a global microsecond timebase and generates interrupts for it. In this tutorial, we will focus learn to configure Raspberry … Read more

8051 Microcontroller Timers: How to Generate Delay Example

October 9, 2026

In this tutorial, we will learn how to use timers on the 8051 microcontroller to generate a delay. The 8051 microcontroller has two 16-bit built-in timers. We can program each timer individually and configure them as either timers (to generate time delays) or counters (to count events occurring outside the microcontroller). The 8051 timer has … Read more
