  • What are you using for a timebase?

  • @bitsurfer0101

    Just the atmega328's crystal oscillator. i'm working on a new version with a more accurate hall sensor and will correct the calculations shown in this video.

  • sir ,can u mail the ckt diagram of entire connections plzzz

  • Hi May I know the type of hall effect sensor that you used in the video

  • Same thing I was thinking. Teres no way that at what ur display showed 30 rpm that that motor was only turning once every 2 seconds! Maybe i'm missing something?

  • Good video it helps explain hall effect tachs really well! Is there anywhere I could go to see how I might further understand how to build one of these, albeit with higher accuracy and more readings/min?

  • too low rpms

  • Good job. But I question the accuracy of the RPM measurement. At 1:00 where you say "about 30 rpm" and the display shows 35, this is far too low a value for rpm because the rotational speed is still slow enough that I can see and hear the individual rotations - which are roughly 8 per second at this point, which would be 480 rpm. Sir you need to calibrate!

    A nifty version: Measure the time between pulses, & use a microcontroller algorithm to invert that - for INSTANTANEOUS rps updates.

  • Hi - I want to use a hall to trigger a transistor in the bedini circuit. im using a 12v car battery - any advice on which one to use? cheers

  • Is this a C.C. or a A.C motor?
