Hi to all,
I was asked by a student to help him with a class project which is measuring the speed of a moving object using two light barriers. The measuring distance is just one meter and therefor requires accurate timing.
I am also afraid they don't possess a frequency counter at school to adjust a timer circuit which will deliver precisely 10KHz. I looked up ceramic resonators, but the lowest frequency to obtain is 400KHz which would result in several divider ICs.
Does anybody know of a circuit meeting above requirements? Stable and accurate fixed frequency without much additional circuitry?
Thanks
