Well, I've done that... sort of. I'm still using the TAPR TICC, but have it
connected to a PI-3B / official PI touch screen mounted in the excellent
SmartiPi case running Lady Heather.
Heather can configure the TICC and capture TICC data to a file while
simultaneously calculating and
Probably only worth the effort if one were considering a higher resolution
device intended to surpass that of the venerable HP5370A/B or equivalent.
Doable with off the TDC shelf parts but is there any demand?

In theory, making a new TICC that ran on an RPi could provide
significantly more measurements per second, and more convenient I/O, but
wouldn't affect the quality of the results.
I've thought a bit about an RPi-based TICC, but it's a significant
redesign effort for limited gains.

More likely you would use a Raspberry PI (or similar, like the BeagleBone
Black I use) as a logger, data capture front end, in conjunction with the
TICC.
I find it useful to have a reasonable performance Linux computer with a
network connection, direct IO pins and SPI, I2C, Serial and USB bus

either a fairly
simple PCB or a whole bunch of wires.
The main benefits would be the bigger RAM on
The TICC uses an Arduino mega clone, not a Raspberry Pi.
My understanding is that most of the magic happens on the shield board not
in the processor - the processor is just there to capture the data from the
shield and format and report it via the serial port.

The TICC uses an Arduino, not a Raspberry Pi. It would require both
major hardware and software changes to utilize an RPi.

Yo Bubba Dudes!,
I've just purchased a TAPR TIC module. Now the new Raspberry Pi Model B has
just been released.
So my question is would there be any worthwhile advantage to replacing the TAPR
unit with the new Model 4B?
