Windows Mobile uses the Sleepfunction and the Wait XXX functions to control timing and synchronization. For more information about Wait XXX functions, see Wait Functions.
The timer is always set to 1 millisecond under default working conditions when there are threads to schedule. Therefore, you can call Sleep(1) and expect to receive approximately between 1- and 2-millisecond (ms) accuracy if the thread is the highest priority thread running on the system.
However, the accuracy depends on the priority of your thread, the priority of other threads, and whether interrupt service routines (ISRs) are running.
