Its designed to be used with a 2 sensor optical gate, though it can accurately measure the time of any single pulse.
It is mostly an experiment to carry as much precision as possible.
But also a useful gadget in it's own right.
It uses Darrel' Taylor's Instant Interrupts and N-Bit Math (64-Bits) throughout.
The core program is based on an implementation of CCP1, TIMER-1 Interrupts that was originally developed by Bruce from Rentron.

Here is the Schematic of the setup

Here is an photo of the actual Circuit:
This timer was developed to use an input pulse from the 2-Beam Pulse Generator Circuit which I presented here:http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=12614
While this code looks like an abomination, it's actually pretty cool that all the math is done with 64 bit precision.
I'm pretty new at all this, so I'd really like to hear your comments or criticism.
This is a work in progress. I have several features I'm still planning to include.
I'll follow up with a post with some comments and limitations.
Many thanks to Darrel, Bruce and Alexander for their excellent Code examples.
Notes, Limitations, and future releases:
Features:
1) MAXIMUM TIME: 99 MIN, 99.9999999 SEC ...Really just a display limitation
2) MINIMUM TIME: 0.0000522 SEC also a display limit at 9999.999998 MPH
3) Time Resolution: 200 nS = 0.0000002 SEC
4) Input single PULSE to Pin RC2
5) Displays Measurement and resets awaiting next pulse.
6) Data is sent out to 57600 N-8-1 Serial terminal on Pin RC6
7) Status LED shows when pulse is being timed.
Comments:
This was an experiment in precision of the code.
No oscillator is really this accurate.
Probably pretty close for relative measurements.
But Not for absolute measurements
Currently the speed is based on fixed distance of the optical sensors.
they are fixed and hard coded at 6.000 inches.
The circuit I use to derive the pulse is here:
http://www.picbasic.co.uk/forum/showthread.php?t=12614
Future Plans:
1) Add additional speed units (M/S, KMH)
2) Add user menu to set gate distance and displayed units
3) Add an oscillator correction factor after comparing it to bench-top timer.
4) Write settings to Onboard EEPROM
5) Try a 40 MHz crystal oscillator or other High accuracy clock
6) Build a thermal oven for crystal oscillator ...
Enjoy,
