InputCapture overflow. - Edwin Cini - May 28 9:23:00 2003

Hi,

Is there a way of changing the tick-rate of InputCapture? I imagine
there is a pre-scaler ahead of the timer used for InputCapture.

I need to test the proper operation of devices that have a zero
crossing detector that gives pulses of ~0.5mS HIGH, ~9.5mS LOW,
~0.5mS HIGH.... and so on. (at 50Hz mains frequency)

My problem is that the timer overflows at 8.9mS, just a little short
of what I really need.

Any suggestions?

Regards,

Edwin Cini
