Precise Time Measurement Using CTMU

Article Preview

Abstract:

Numerous applications require very precise time measurement. Usually, the measurement accuracy is increased by improve the MCU MIPS. It will take the high cost and current consumption, and the accuracy is limited in the MCU MIPS. Using CTMU channels work in conjunction with Analog to Digital converters, the high precise time measurement with low cost MCU can be achieved, and make the time measurement resolution to 1 nanosecond. CTMU module is available in many Microchip microcontrollers.
