The great thing about building with gates is the crazy speeds you can achieve by using hardware directly (as opposed to working with simple microcontrollers). This 100 MHz frequency counter is a great ...

Let’s say you want to build a Nixie clock. You could go out and find some tubes, source a good power supply design, start whipping up a PCB, and working on a custom enclosure. Or, you could skip all ...

Recently, for some reason, I have been seeing a lot of references to the good old MM5314/5/6 clock ICs from National Semiconductor. These were some of the first 40-pin LSI (large-scale integration) ...

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 ...

In frequency counters, the gating time allotted for counting is often too short to resolve low frequencies. A phase-locked loop could be used to multiply the input frequency. But in some cases, the ...

In this project we are building a basic and low cost frequency counter circuit . It can measure from 16Hz to 100Hz signals with a maximum amplitude of 15V. The sensitivity is high, the resolution is 0 ...
