 +The second example shows the special case of an ultrasonic sensor like HC-SR04. 
 +This sensor needs a 10 µs impulse at the TRIG input which shall be connected to IO3. 
 +The pulse length of sensor singnal ECHO decodes the distance to the detected object. 
 +The signal must be connected to IO0 and SPI_INT. 
 +IO0 must be configured for rising trigger edge, SPI_INT for falling capture edge.

 +In this mode the periode of periodic signals or pulse length can be measured.
 +Connect the signal to measure to IO0 and IO3 or SPI_INT or both.
 +For period length the IO0 trigger edge and the capture edge must be equal (like IO3 in image below).
 +For positive pulses the IO0 trigger edge must be rising, the capture edge falling edge (like SPI_INT in image below).
 +For negative pulses the IO0 trigger edge must be falling, the capture edge rising edge.
