Haukcode.HighResolutionTimer

A cross-platform, high-resolution timer for .NET Standard 2.0+ with precise timing for Windows and Linux.

Installation

dotnet add package Haukcode.HighResolutionTimer

Quick Start

using Haukcode.HighResolutionTimer;

// Create a 10ms period timer (100 Hz)
using (var timer = new HighResolutionTimer())
{
    timer.SetPeriod(10);  // Set period in milliseconds
    timer.Start();

    for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
    {
        timer.WaitForTrigger();  // Wait for next tick
        // Your periodic code here
    }

    timer.Stop();
}

Key Features

  • High Precision: ~1ms on Windows, microsecond on Linux
  • Cross-Platform: Automatic Windows/Linux detection
  • Simple API: Easy to use with minimal setup
  • Period Range: 0 to 15 minutes (900,000 ms)

Common Use Cases

  • Real-time data processing
  • Game loops (e.g., 60 Hz: timer.SetPeriod(16.67))
  • Multimedia applications
  • Control systems
  • Any scenario requiring precise periodic execution

Platform Support

  • Windows: Multimedia Timer API (~1ms precision)
  • Linux: timerfd API (microsecond precision)
  • Compatibility: .NET Core 2.0+, .NET 5+, .NET Framework 4.6.1+
