Challenge Problems
Push your limits with advanced challenges
Given a configuration of a frequency counter measuring 100 Hz input with a gate time of 1 second, how many pulses should be counted, and what will be the measurement resolution if the gate time is adjusted to 10 seconds?
💡 Hint: Use the relation that counts are determined by the gate time and input frequency.
If the AND gate is modified to control signal flow based on two inputs instead of one, explain how this would enhance measurement capabilities.
💡 Hint: Consider how time intervals are defined in the context of electronics.
