Making a microcontroller perform as a frequency counter is a relatively straightforward task involving the measurement of the time period during which a number of pulses are counted. The maximum ...

In the quest for an accurate frequency standard there are many options depending on your budget, but one of the most affordable is an oven controlled crystal oscillator (OCXO). [RF Burns] has a video ...

Computer engineer Thiery Guennou based in France has created a new Arduino compatible precision frequency counter 5 or 120 MHz. The inspiration behind the Arduino board was to build an open, very ...

An accurate way to calibrate a frequency source is to use a high-resolution counter/timer to measure the beat frequency, or phase difference, between the source to be calibrated and a reference such ...
