The first millisecond pulsar designated PSR 1937+21 (by its coordinates), was discovered by Backer and his colleagues using the Arecibo telescope in 1982. This pulsar has a pulse period of 1.6 milliseconds; the neutron star is rotating an amazing 640 times each second.

MILLISECOND radio pulsars, which are old ( 109yr), rapidly rotating neutron stars believed to be spun up by accretion of matter from their stellar companions, are usually found ... Using the 305-m Arecibo radiotelescope to make precise timing measurements of pulses from the recently discovered 6.2-ms pulsar PSR1257 +12 (ref.

Globular clusters are excellent breeding grounds for millisecond pulsars, because the extremely high stellar density increases the probability of encounters between cluster members. ... 4) It took a relatively long time to recognize the first pulsar. However, once that happened, pulsar research rapidly advanced,

Millisecond Pulsar Timing in Effelsberg ... We have been observing millisecond pulsars with the 100-m Effelsberg radiotelescope since April 1994. The original objective of this program was to ensure continuity of the millisecond pulsar timing during the upgrade period of the Arecibo telescope.
