Good day
I want to measure wheel speed by using a variable reluctant sensor with a sprocket to determine the speed of a wheel and then convert the frequency to a voltage using a LM2907/LM2917 IC. Then I want to feed this voltages into the 5 V input of my arduino. Any tips on how to approach this problem? The max RPM of the sprocket will be no more than 2000 RPM. Using a 60 teeth sprocket which means that the max frequency should be 2 kHz. I know by using a variable reluctant sensor, signal conditioning is necessary.I just want to know how to measure it and if what I'm doing is the right approach.
Kind Regards
