OK, I set up frequency in simulator correctly and run the code, but I get
some strange values in 'stop watch' field,, they are not what I expect. I'm
doing the following steps:
1) set breakpoint
2) run (F5)
2) upon reaching breakpoint I zero'd the 'stop-watch' value (right click and
choose reset)
3) press F5 again
4) see 'stop watch' value

I've done everything you said, and got the following effect: after I reached
the breakpoint 'stopwatch' value is changed and quickly resets to 0, so I
have no time to see the value.
And I didn't find where to change simulator frequency, though I see its
value in Processor window.

I'm using AVR Studio 4.10.
In Debug mode, select the I/O Workspace tab and open Processor. You should
see a Stop Watch at the bottom. Right click on it and you will find lots of
options. I run to a breakpoint, reset it, then run again to the breakpoint,
or a second breakpoint, to get accurate timings. You need to set the correct
clock rate for the simulator, of course. It should do what you want. You
could use a 'scope as well, just to make sure.

Could you please explain how to use this feature of simulator? I guess, I
need to set up breakpoint for function I'm going to check, then run, after
reaching breakpoint zero'ing stopwatch option, then run again? Hm...

I'd use the simulator. The CPU has a stopwatch option.

Hello, All!
When I initialize Timer0/1, how can I check amount of time spent by timer
ticking, for example, if timer is configured for 10ms, how can I verify that
10ms really have gone. I suppose, I can attach probe of oscilloscope to
pin1 of ATmega162 (according to datasheet it's OC0), but I don't see
anything. Here is my code:
...
// ISR for Timer0
SIGNAL(SIG_OUTPUT_COMPARE0)
{
LED0_blink(); //my function
/*
Timer/Counter0 initialization
CLock source: system clock
Prescaler value: 8
Clock value:
Mode: increment CTC top=OCR0
Interrupt: enable
*/
void Timer0_Init(void)
{
TCCR0 = 0x00; //stop timer
TCNT0 = 0x00;
TCCR0 = _BV(CS01) | _BV(WGM01);
OCR0 = 0xFF;
TIMSK = _BV(OCIE0);
}
int main(void)
{
Timer0_Init();
sei();
while (1)
{
.........
}
return 1;
}
