Chapter 8 Counters

Figure 8-13. Method 3
Then route the Counter 0 Internal Output signal to the Gate input of
Counter 1. You can route a signal of known frequency (F2) to the
Counter 1 Source input. F2 can be 80MHzTimebase. For signals that
might be slower than 0.02 Hz, use a slower known timebase. Configure
Counter 1 to perform a single pulse-width measurement. Suppose the
result is that the pulse width is J periods of the F2 clock.
From Counter 0, the length of the pulse is N/F1. From Counter 1, the
length of the same pulse is J/F2. Therefore, the frequency of F1 is
given by F1 = F2 * (N/J).
Choosing a Method for Measuring Frequency
The best method to measure frequency depends on several factors
including the expected frequency of the signal to measure, the desired
accuracy, how many counters are available, and the measurement duration.
Method 1 uses only one counter. It is a good method for many
applications. However, the accuracy of the measurement decreases as
the frequency increases.
Consider a frequency measurement on a 50 kHz signal using an
80 MHz Timebase. This frequency corresponds to 1600 cycles of the
