Hi, I am new to netduino platform with Visual Studio 2010. I will like to know if there is a function for measuring time in microsecond. I am using the netduino to receive a square signal between 1 to 120 Hz through one of the analog pins. Then I make an interrupt with the rising/lower edge of the square signal. During the interruption I want to measure a starting time and then the stopping time so that I can measure the frequency of my signal.
Note 1: Perhaps the problem can be solved with millisecond, but for more precise application, I would like to know if it is possible with this platform. This is because in other application I would like to do more processing than just getting the frequency of the signal (Ignition time for a motor for example).
Note 2: I have tried using DateTime for trying to measure but it is not precise.
Note 3: I haven’t found in visual studio the stopwatch function. That could be another possibility according to some forums.
