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 ...

With a 555 on the BOM, you never know what you’re going to get. With 40 of the versatile timer chips in a build, you might just get something completely unexpected, like this 555-based eight-bit ...

Two USB pulse counter/timer data-acquisition devices from Measurement Computing offer four or eight channels supporting high-level input modes like totalize, period measurement, pulse-width ...

Counter/timer hardware is a crucial component of most embedded systems. In some cases a timer is needed to measure elapsed time; in others we want to count or time some external events. Here's a ...

[Josh] has written up two posts that those of you who use AVRs might find handy. The first post documents a C library that implements a jitter-free one-shot timer. The second post explains how it ...
