21/5/2012 - Wheel speed sensor
I have finally got around to making use of the wheel speed sensor. It is being used to control the electric power steering assistance and also being passed to the VEMS ECU for logging. I have used an AVR tiny45 to provide a frequency shifter for the EPAS system, and passed the speed signal through an amplifier and protection diode etc to the ECU. My problem is that the ECU gets confused when the speed signal is greater than 1096 Hz. This is about 55km/h on my car, so not all that useful. Is this a known limit for the speed signal? (Note that the divider logic is not a useful fix to this because it divides after the counter) If so, I'll produce an additional frequency shifted output for the ECU from the AVR chip. Thanks ---- |
