摘要
介绍了一种基于定时器的转速测量系统的设计与开发。使用直流电动机的转轴来测量其转速,定时器IC 555用于不稳定模式。使用数字存储示波器(DSO)测量的定时器输出波形的频率几乎与转轴的转速成线性比例,而这个转速又与外部输入电压水平的变化成线性关系,由此得到了定时器输出波形频率与转速之间的线性关系。该系统的主要优点是线性输入-输出,体积小,便于携带且成本低。
The design and development of a timer based revolution per minute(RPM)measurement system were described in this paper.The rotating shaft of a dc motor was used to measure the RPM and timer integrated circuit(IC)555 was used in astable mode.The frequency of timer output waveform measured by a digital storage oscilloscope(DSO)is almost linearly proportional to the RPM of rotating shaft,and the RPM also linearly varies with the change of the external input voltage level.Hence the linear relationship between the frequency of timer output waveform and the RPM can be obtained.The main advantages of this developed system are linear input-output relationship,small size,easy to carry and cost effective.
