Hi Cristian,

I need to interface an EM4095 IC using a uC, and am looking for a suitable uC to do the job.

Would you kindly advise on the following.

1. Can a general 8052 without any Programmable counter array interface the EM4095? Since I notice from EM4095's Datasheet that "the used uController should be able to measure pulse widths and pulse periods and to switch to the inverted measuring edge (falling/falling<->rising/rising) while reading."
But, I don't understand yet what "being able to switch to the inverted measuring edge (falling/falling<->rising/rising) while reading." mean.

2. Is there any special difficulty using a 8052 to interface the EM4095, which may not be the case if another uC was used?

Thanks in advance.

Kenneth
