Hi,

       

In psoc creator,

   

how can I profile the code and know how much resourses each function takes?

There is no profiler in Creator AFAIK. You can yse SysTick counter to measure amount of CPU cycles taken by a function or operation as shown below. You will be limited by 2^24 CPU ticks only (about 0.25sec @24MHz CPU speed), as SysTick counter on Cortex M0 and M3 can not go beyond  SYSTICK_MAXVAL.

#define SYSTICK_MAXVAL 0x00FFFFFF //max allowed SysTick counter value for 24bit

   

uint32 SysCntVal; // The value of SysTick counter you are trying to retrieve
 

   

float x=1.0f; //some variable to work with    
        
      SysTick_Config(SYSTICK_MAXVAL); //reset counter set to max value, 1-time,  will not reload

   

      x+=(float) 0.0001; //do something.. 

   

      SysCntVal = SYSTICK_MAXVAL - (SysTick->VAL); //get elapsed ticks (min offset 3 ticks)
           
      sprintf(strMsg1, "%d, %f\r\n", SysCntVal, x); //report result
      UART_PutString(strMsg1);
