-The program code below is a delay function based on a timer, which is simplified a little bit. The principle of counting is the same as it is at software delay function – a desired amount of 1 ms long delays are produced. The delay is produced with an 8-bit ATmega 128 counter 0. It is calculated previously that at clock frequency 14,7456 Mhz the timing signal has to be divided at least 64 times, so that the counter would not reach to overflow in 1 ms. The value which the counter must have so that the overflow occurs after 1 ms is presented in the form of an expression and the variable is //timer_start//. //F_CPU// which is a constant in macro-language, that shows clock frequency in Hz. The clock frequency should be 25,6 at the moment but since fractions can not be used, the initial value will be set 26. Unfortunately here arises a mistake in delay time, however it is fairly small (-1,7 μs). +The program code below is a delay function based on a timer, which is simplified a little bit.

 In the cycle takes place initialing of the counter and zeroing the flag of the overflow (by writing 1 into that). Then is waited until the counter counts to 256 from the initial value, i.e. to the overflow. At the moment of the overflow the flag goes high and the delay of 1 ms has taken place. In the end of the function the timer is stopped.        In the cycle takes place initialing of the counter and zeroing the flag of the overflow (by writing 1 into that).
