SysTick定时器是存在于系统内核的一个滴答定时器，只要是ARM Cortex-M0/M3/M4/M7内核的MCU都包含这个定时器，它是一个24位的递减定时器，当计数到 0 时，将从RELOAD 寄存器中自动重装载定时初值，开始新一轮计数。

/** \brief  System Tick Configuration

    The function initializes the System Timer and its interrupt, and starts the System Tick Timer.
    Counter is in free running mode to generate periodic interrupts.

    \param [in]  ticks  Number of ticks between two interrupts.

    \return          0  Function succeeded.
    \return          1  Function failed.

    \note     When the variable <b>__Vendor_SysTickConfig</b> is set to 1, then the
    function <b>SysTick_Config</b> is not included. In this case, the file <b><i>device</i>.h</b>
    must contain a vendor-specific implementation of this function.
