How can i implement a system tick Posted by zydgyy on 10 Aug 2009 at 6:09 PM
If i want to implement a RTOS kernel,so how can i implement the System Tick part of it,I know the simple algorithm is that decrements a count variable in every task control block in a loop,however,i think it's ineffective!So,Does anybody have some more effective methods?!

You must sync with a hardware timer. How that is done is CPU/MCU dependant.
