Since mmbasic  has PULSIN with a resolution of 1 uS, it wont do. The classic way is to measure  the number of clock cycles (ie from 40 MHz clock) that are counted between  when a gate is opened and closed, which would give 40 counts for a one uS pulse. These can be averaged Are there any Csubs that can access the CPU clock, count the number of clock cycles that occur within  a digital pulse of duration say 0.1 uS   ( 100 nS)  on say PIN(4)? Am using the 28 pin PIC32MX170F 256, but can upgrade, but prefer the single chip route for embedded control application Regards George
