Hi Poul,
I would guess the 100ns granularity should be already overkill, giving 
an error in the order of 1e-7. To be compared with mains instability of 
 >1e-5:

I would try to keep it as simple as possible... maybe even only one IC, 
there exist USB-capable PIC controllers (don't know about AVR, but 
likely as well).

Regards,
Achim
