duration. In this case, program the counter to count falling edges at the
CLK input while the gate is applied. The frequency of the input signal
then equals the count value divided by the gate period. Figure 4-6
shows the connections for a frequency measurement application. You
could also use a second counter to generate the gate signal in this
application.
