Answer:
The signal whose frequency we have to be measured is first to be amplified through amplifier. The output of amplifier is applied to the Schmitt trigger. The Schmitt trigger is convert input signal into a square wave which has a fast rise and fall time. The square wave is then differentiated and clipped. Each pulse is proportional to each cycle of unknown signal. Now the output from Schmitt trigger is applied to a start and stop gate. The input pulses are allowed to pass through it, when the gate is open. The counter starts to count these pulses. The gate is closed the output pulses are not allowed to pass through the gate. The counter stops the counting. When the gate is open the number of pulse are counted by the counter. The interval between start and stop condition is the frequency of unknown signal which has to be measured.
