I am currently working on the integration of a "shunt" type sensor on an electronic board. My choice was on a Linear (LTC2947), unfortunately it only has an Arduino driver. I have to translate everything in C under Linux to be compatible with my microprocessor (APQ8009 ARM Cortex-A7). I have a small question about one of the functions:
int16_t LTC2947_wake_up() //Wake up LTC2947 from shutdown mode and measure the wakeup time
{
byte data[1];
unsigned long wakeupStart = millis(), wakeupTime;
LTC2947_WR_BYTE(LTC2947_REG_OPCTL, 0);
do
{
delay(1);
LTC2947_RD_BYTE(LTC2947_REG_OPCTL, data);
wakeupTime = millis() - wakeupStart;
if (data[0] == 0) //! check if we are in idle mode
{
return wakeupTime;
}
if (wakeupTime > 200)
{
//! failed to wake up due to timeout, return -1
return -1;
}
}
while (true);
}
After finding usleep() as equivalent for delay(), I can not find it for millis() in C. Can you help me translate this function please?
