I think you should ask Bernard for a plot of comparator input voltage vs RPM (or frequency) and ripple voltage (and equivalent ripple RPM). I ran some sims. The sensitivity is low and the ripple is high. It doesn't look too good, but I could be wrong.Hi Bernard,
Thanks for the circuit.
It sort of makes a little sense to me (i'm slow).
Would there be any benefit to going with one circuit over the other (from the ones suggested on the thread by others)
In the end, I would like to look for the most reliable, with the least amount of components/simplest.
Thanks!
Also, I have not tested or simulated the circuit in the LM2907 datasheet, so I can't comment on its performance.
