Frequency Counter Upgrade

New time base oscillator and prescaler boards to increase frequency counter range from 50 MHz to 1 GHz. Great PC boards from PCBWay!

Step 1: Frequency Counter Upgrade

A home built frequency counter needed upgraging to increase its frequency range from 50 Mhz. to 1 GHz.  I designed a prescaler board based on a Siemens SDA 4212 prescaler chip to achieve this goal.  This also required reworking the time base oscillator of the counter to work with the new chip when in prescaler mode.  A very fun project.
