<h2>OS_Tick_Handler</h2>
<p>The function <b>OS_Tick_Handler</b> handles the RTX tick interval interrupts. It is used if you are using an alternate timer as the RTX tick timer.</p>
<p>The <b>OS_Tick_Handler</b> is an interrupt handler function, which runs the OS task scheduler. It is called by the Nested Vectored Interrupt Controller (NVIC) on the alternate timer's interrupt, and cannot be called as a regular C-function. It must be entered into the Interrupt Table in startup file. The default Cortex-M interrupt vector must be replaced by <b>OS_Tick_Handler</b>.</p>
