[time-nuts] Acam TDC's

An interesting chip. I had never heard of it before and suspect this may be
the gizmo used in closed system water leak detection. Won't go into why I
know about that.
I did find comments from 2007 about the chip and atmega but nothing since.
When I went looking for distributors or pricing to get an idea came up
empty. Though Amazon will sell you lots of vitamins or something called TDC.

So with all that said I will guess that for time-nuts purposes the
capabilities of this chip have been far exceeded by the various array
technologies we have at very cheap prices today. The ability to create long
counters at very high speeds.
Only a guess though.
Regards
Paul.
