Hi all,
I'm currently having an issue figuring out how to attain decent resolution when generating square waves around 100kHz. I am looking for a very cost effective solution, I may add.
For example, I am currently using a microcontroller. It's cheap and it can generate square waves pretty easily. But when working around 100kHz with a 16MHz clock you can only divide by clock cycles to reach a particular frequency.
An easily understood example, say it takes one clock cycle for square...
