I have an accurate 50hz frequency (not form the mains).
I was planning on using this to sync a frequency counter in an arduino uno or similar.
But before I go writing and troubleshooting a load of tricky real time code I thought I'd run this by some arduino knowledgeable's.
Use Jack Christensens GpsFreq lib and apply 50hz to the arduino instead of the 1 hz from a Gps Rx, and multiply the answer by 50.
I realize this will give me granular measurements in steps of 50, and also the load for the processor will be much increased possibly causing it to miss ticks, but it'll save me some coding if it works.
