As stated in the documentation, the maximum positive jitter is 3 ticks (91.6us) if multiple activities time out at the same time. You may be delayed by other interrupts as the priority of app_timer interrupt/callbacks is set to APP_IRQ_PRIORITY_LOW.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;If you are to use the RTC directly, you cannot use app_timer (assuming you are using nRF51) since there are only two RTC instances with one being occupied by the SoftDevice. Some modules in the SDK (ble_conn_params, app_button, bsp)  uses app_timer, so these can then not be used.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;What do you aim to do every 15.625ms?&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div style="clear:both;"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</description></item></channel></rss>
