If you decide to try to show speeds, you'll need division as well, which
is fairly easy in a microcontroller, and much harder with digital logic.


It doesn't have to be, since all you really have to do is change the
clock speed.


This sounds like something I want to understand. Say I'm trying to
display the speed of a slot-car, given a sensor that detects the start
and end of the race. Clocks measure time. You have distance as a given
of the design. How would you do this?

Thanks
