Hi,

The timeout(,,x) function is used to call a function
after x clock ticks. where hz is the clock frequency.
I guess usually the value of hz is 100. 

so if we say timeout(, , 1) then the scheduled
function is called after 1 clock tick (= 1 milli sec).
But for our project we need a timer resolution of 1
micro sec. Is there any other function to do it ? I am
new to Free Bsd, so it would be of great help if
someone guides me on this.

thanks.
