Challenge Problems

Push your limits with advanced challenges

Challenge 1 Hard

Assume you have a digital counter that can achieve 100 measurements per second at gate time of 1 second. What would happen to the throughput if you doubled the gate time while maintaining the same measurement?

💡 Hint: Consider how measurement duration impacts the count.

Challenge 2 Hard

In designing a measurement system, you need to measure fast pulses that vary greatly in frequency. Discuss how you would manage throughput and resolution in this scenario.

💡 Hint: Think about the adjustments you'd need with respect to pulse speeds.
