Hi, I've read that 4.2 RC5 will allow C# code to set the PWM frequency, whereas it's fixed at 10kHz in earlier versions. If I've read correctly, what will the max frequency be? I'm hoping to use this to generate a clock signal at a frequency of about 1MHz or 10MHz. If the Netduino can generate a clock signal, another circuit will count the number of clock cycles between a start pulse and a finish pulse. Does it make sense to use something like a 74HC4020 to count (14 bits will be enough) assuming that I only send it the PWM clock signal between the start and finish pulse? Thanks

We'll be enabling the maximum PWM available, which should be in the several-MHz realm. Chris
