PIC Microcontoller Delay Method

Delay X cycles (20-271) inclusive

From Andrew Warren

    ; This routine delays X cycles.  Enter with X (in the range
    ; [20-271]) in the W register.
    ;
    ; Note that the delay is inclusive of the "MOVLW X", "CALL
    ; DELAY", and "RETURN" overhead, so a sequence like:
    ;
    ;     MOVLW   100
    ;     CALL    DELAY
    ;     MOVLW   200
    ;     CALL    DELAY
    ;
    ; will delay EXACTLY 300 cycles.

    DELAY:

        MOVWF   COUNTER

        BTFSC   COUNTER, 0
        GOTO    $+1

        BTFSS   COUNTER, 1
        GOTO    SKIP
        NOP
        GOTO    $+1

    SKIP:

        RRF     COUNTER
        RRF     COUNTER

        MOVLW   4
        SUBWF   COUNTER

        BCF     COUNTER,6
        BCF     COUNTER,7

    LOOP:

        NOP
        DECFSZ  COUNTER
        GOTO    LOOP

        RETURN
