## AtomicU16

# Type Alias AtomicU16

    pub type AtomicU16 = Atomic<u16>;

Expand description

An integer type which can be safely shared between threads.

This type has the same size and bit validity as the underlying integer type, `u16`. However, the alignment of this type is always equal to its size, even on targets where `u16` has a lesser alignment.

For more about the differences between atomic types and non-atomic types as well as information about the portability of this type, please see the module-level documentation.

Note: This type is only available on platforms that support atomic loads and stores of `u16`.
