Greetings,
I am looking for a way of converting an output frequency to a DC voltage for a rudder indicator system onboard the boat I work on.
The the output frequnecy of the rudder position sensor varies from 2500 Hz (full left rudder) to 4300 Hz (full right rudder) with zero rudder being 3400 Hz. I have an existing rudder angle display but it operates on changing DC voltage (0-24Vdc). I would like help making the two peices work together, maybe via a LM2917 or other similar frequency to voltage converter? Thanks for any help.
