General Purpose Timer - ESP32 - — ESP-IDF Programming Guide v4.3 documentation
Registration of an interrupt callback for a specific timer can be done by calling timer_isr_callback_add() and passing in the group ID, timer ID, callback handler and user data. The callback handler will be invoked in ISR context, so user shouldn’t put any blocking API in the callback function.

This ISR handler will be called from an ISR. This ISR handler do not need to handle interrupt status, and should be kept short. If you want to realize some specific applications or write the whole ISR, you can call timer_isr_register(…) to register ISR.

February 17, 2025 - Therefore, the Timer0_ISR() function is called every 1ms. The auto-reload will reload the Timer register with a 0 and it starts counting up to 1000 again and so on. Here is a list of the available ESP32 Timers APIs for Arduino Core users that you’ll most probably use in different projects.
