Re: [Paparazzi-devel] Sensirion SHT75 on APOGEE

when timing is important, stm32 line offer bitbanding alias :


Bit Banding: Maps a complete word of memory onto a single bit in the
bit-band region. For example, writing to an alias word will set or
clear the corresponding bit in the bitband region. This allows every
individual bit in the bit-banding region to be directly accessible from
a word-aligned address, and individual bits to be toggled from C/C++
without performing a read-modify-write sequence of instructions

All the registers and the static ram has an alias map for
efficient bit manipulation. 

if i remember well, number of cycles to toggle an individual bit 
take 100 cycles with read/modify/write port method, and 10 with
bitbanding.
