To this module you find an improved successor module
(see
The counter module
has 8 counters (32 bit). All count
rates can be loaded into the register with a single
ADbasic
command so that
all counter values can be latched simultaneously. It is also possible to latch the
counters individually. With a rising edge of a TTL pulse the 32-bit counter incre-
ments by one. The counter can be cleared by software command. The count
rate can be determined by the difference between two successive register val-
ues. Since the register access is discrete-time, the frequency can be calcu-
lated online.
