In counter mode it provides 1Hz resolution up to 100Mhz. In timer mode maximum resolution is 0.0000001 Hz up to 1Hz. Resolution is reduced by one digit for each additional decade. Multiple frequency updates per second by employing a sliding window for calculation.[more]

The purpose of this project is to present a device that is useful and at the
same time demonstrate to the beginner many features involved in programming
the PIC. Some of the topics included are:
* Simple use of MPASM assembler
* Demonstration of use of timer 0 and the prescaler
* Use of length of instructions to set up timing delays
* Using interrupt routines
* Detection of switch closures including debouncing
* Saving and recovering data from the onboard EEPROM

Imagine you are on a shooting range and you want to improve yourshooting skills on a moving target, but the target can’t move. What doyou do? You could for example count the seconds and imagine that the target moves, but this is not a particularly good and accurate solution.The shooting timer provides an audible visualization of a moving target that helps you concentrate and focus on the shooting and not on timekeeping.The shooting timer is a rather simple construction preprogrammed with three types of shooting categories; 25 meter standard pistol, 25 meter fine pistol and terrain pistol. Each category consists of up to three disciplines.This project uses PIC12F675 and internal RC oscillator which is calibrated to be accurate.[more]
