2. Principle of measuring period of digital frequency meter: When measuring low-frequency signals with the above method, there may be a big error, because the arrival time of the first second signal is random, and the counter may record one more or one less number from opening to closing; Therefore, in order to ensure the accuracy of low-frequency signal measurement, the periodic measurement method can be adopted: that is, the measured signal pulse is used to control the opening of the gate circuit, so that the standard time enters the counter through the control gate to count, so that the value of the counter is equal to several standard time pulses in a period of the measured voltage, which is equivalent to a period equal to several time units. This is why the frequency of low-frequency models should be determined by the measurement period.
