EXT unit to measure engine RPM
-
Hi, Im looking for a devlce to measure an engines RPM. I have a 3.3v logic line that is pulled high for a pulse once per revolution of the RPM but need an i2c device to count these pulses and send my device an RPM value. Maximum RPM (and pulses per minute) would be 11,000RPM.
Is this something the M5Stack Ext Encoder Unit (STM32F030) can do?
or can I use M5Stack Extend I/O 2 Unit (STM32F0) ?Thanks.

What is the device you're going to use to receive the values on I2C?
Maximum RPM (and pulses per minute) would be 11,000RPM.
Maybe you don't need an external device for counting. 11,000 RPM with 1 pulse pr revolution is about 190 Hz which an ESP32 should be able to count directly by it self via one of its GPIO's.
