ABSTRACT:
An integrated system for precise measurement of time intervals wherein a high resolution and accuracy can be achieved through the implementation of an interpolation function and a self calibration function. The interpolation function scales down a relatively coarse major time base to a finer time base for the portions near the boundaries of the time interval that is being measured. The calibration function is built into the system for facilitating calibration of the interpolation function under actual operating of the system.
