    \code
    #include <util/delay_basic.h>
    \endcode
 
    The functions in this header file implement simple delay loops
    that perform a busy-waiting.  They are typically used to
    facilitate short delays in the program execution.  They are
    implemented as count-down loops with a well-known CPU cycle
    count per loop iteration.  As such, no other processing can
    occur simultaneously.  It should be kept in mind that the
    functions described here do not disable interrupts.
 
    In general, for long delays, the use of hardware timers is
    much preferable, as they free the CPU, and allow for
    concurrent processing of other events while the timer is
    running.  However, in particular for very short delays, the
    overhead of setting up a hardware timer is too much compared
    to the overall delay time.
 
    Two inline functions are provided for the actual delay algorithms.

/** \ingroup util_delay_basic
 
    Delay loop using an 8-bit counter \c __count, so up to 256
    iterations are possible.  (The value 256 would have to be passed
    as 0.)  The loop executes three CPU cycles per iteration, not
    including the overhead the compiler needs to setup the counter
    register.
 
    Thus, delays of up to 768 / f<sub>CPU</sub> microseconds can be achieved,
    where f<sub>CPU</sub> denotes the CPU speed in units of 1 MHz.
 
    As an alternative, consider <a
