M my_friend4ever New Member Dec 15, 2006 #1 Hi, I am trying to make a digital tachometer using microcontroller,Can anyone help me with the schematics and program of PIC16F72 controller. The idea is to find the time period of one revolution using proximity sensor and then frequency and then speed. ive been trying for six months and since im not expert in meuP programming i have no idea..I need to drive the speed output to a LCD display can someone help me please **broken link removed** Attachments tacho.JPG 12.9 KB · Views: 172
