Description: The Get CPU Usage block provides CPU usage for the enclosing task for a compound block driven off an interrupt or scheduled as a background task or scheduled as a custom rate task.
CPU usage is displayed in raw clock ticks. To translate the raw clock ticks into a percentage of the time slice of the block that it’s inside of, use the Get CPU usage diagram under Toolbox > Tools.
Note: For Linux targets, the CPU rate is always considered to be 1 GHz.
