See test circuit. VOH = 0.75 x VCC - 1 VBE and VOL = 0.25 x VCC - 1 VBE, therefore VOH - VOL = VCC / 2. The difference (VOH - VOL) and the mirror gain (I2 / I3) are the two factors that cause the tachometer gain constant to vary from 1. Ensure that when choosing the time constant R1 x C1 that the maximum anticipated output voltage at CP2/IN+ can be reached with I3 x R1. The maximum value for R1 is limited by the output resistance of CP2/IN+ which is greater than 10 M typically. Nonlinearity is defined as the deviation of VOUT (at CP2/IN+) for fIN = 5 kHz from a straight line defined by the VOUT at 1 kHz and VOUT at 10 kHz. C1 = 1000 pF, R1 = 68 k and C2 = 0.22 F.

In the 8-pin devices, one of these inputs is internally grounded and therefore it monitors the remaining input for zero crossings. In the 14-pin devices, both of these inputs are open and it instead detects whenever the differential voltage switches polarity. Therefore, the input comparator outputs a square wave of equal frequency to the input. A charge pump system is used to translate the frequency of this square wave to a voltage. At the start of every positive half cycle of the input signal a 180-A constant current charges C1 until its voltage has increased by VCC/2. The capacitor is held at that voltage until the input signal begins a negative half cycle. Then the 180-A constant current discharges capacitor C1 until its voltage has dropped by VCC/2. This voltage is held until the next positive half cycle and the process repeats. This generates pulses of current flowing into and out of capacitor C1 at the same frequency as the input signal. For every full cycle, the charge pump mirrors both current pulses as positive current pulses into the parallel combination of resistor R1 and capacitor C2. Therefore every full cycle, the amount of charge leaving pin 3 is equal to the sum of the charge entering C1 and leaving C1. Because the voltage at pin 3 is equal to I3(avg) x R1, I(avg) is calculated in Equation 1. I3(avg) = Q/t = (Qcharge + Qdischarge) / (1 / f) = 2 x Q x f = 2 x C1 x (VCC/2) x f = C1 x VCC x f (1) This average current will be flowing across R1, giving the output voltage in Equation 2. Vo = R1 x C1 x VCC x f (2) C2 acts as a filter to smooth the pulses of current and does not affect the output voltage. However, the size of C2 determines both the output response time for changes in frequency and the amount of output voltage ripple. The voltage generated is then fed in a high gain op amp. This op amp drives a bipolar transistor whose collector and emitter are each broken out to a pin. The LM29x7 has the flexibility to be configured a variety of ways to meet system requirements including voltage output, driving loads, operating a relay, and more. 10 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2000-2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2907-N LM2917-N LM2907-N, LM2917-N www.ti.com SNAS555D - JUNE 2000 - REVISED DECEMBER 2016 9.2 Functional Block Diagram *This connection made on 8-pin LM2907 and LM2917 only. **This connection made on LM2917 and 8-pin LM2917 only. 9.3 Feature Description 9.3.1 Differential Input This device features a Schmitt-Trigger comparator that is the first stage in converting the input signal. Every time the output of the comparator flips between high and low correlates to a half cycle elapsing on the input signal. On the LM29x7-8 devices, one terminal of this comparator is internally connected to ground. This requires that the input signal cross zero volts in order for device to detect the frequency. On the LM29x7 devices, the input terminals to the Schmitt-Trigger comparator are both available for use. This open terminal allows the potential at which the comparator's output is flipped to be applied externally. This allows the device to accept signals with DC offset or compare differential inputs. 9.3.2 Configurable While the ratio of output voltage to input frequency is dependent on supply voltage, it is easily adjusted through the combination of one resistor and one capacitor, R1 and C1. The formula for calculating the expected output voltage is in Equation 3. VOUT = VCC x f x C1 x R1. (3) The sizes of R1 and C1 have other effects on the system such as maximum frequency and output linearity. See Choosing R1 and C1 for detailed instructions on sizing components.

This op amp then drives and uncommitted bipolar junction transistor. This allows the LM2907 to be configured a variety of ways to meet system needs. The output voltage can be buffered and used to drive a load (see Figure 15) or an output threshold can be given to trigger a load switch (see Figure 18). 9.4 Device Functional Modes 9.4.1 Grounded Input Devices (8-Pin LM2907 and LM2917) These devices have one of the two Schmitt-Trigger comparator inputs internally grounded and must be externally connected to the system ground as well. This configuration monitors the remaining terminal for zero crossings. 9.4.2 Differential Input Devices (LM2907 and LM2917) These devices have both inputs to the Schmitt-Trigger comparator available and broken out to pins 1 and 11. This configuration allows a new switching threshold provided in the case of signals with DC offset or to intake a differential pair and switch based on voltage difference. 12 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2000-2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2907-N LM2917-N LM2907-N, LM2917-N www.ti.com SNAS555D - JUNE 2000 - REVISED DECEMBER 2016 10 Application and Implementation NOTE Information in the following applications sections is not part of the TI component specification, and TI does not warrant its accuracy or completeness. TI's customers are responsible for determining suitability of components for their purposes. Customers should validate and test their design implementation to confirm system functionality. 10.1 Application Information The LM2907 series of tachometer circuits is designed for minimum external part count applications and maximum versatility. To fully exploit its features and advantages, first examine its theory of operation. The first stage of operation is a differential amplifier driving a positive feedback flip-flop circuit. The input threshold voltage is the amount of differential input voltage at which the output of this stage changes state. Two options (8-pin LM2907 and LM2917) have one input internally grounded so that an input signal must swing above and below ground and exceed the input thresholds to produce an output. This is offered specifically for magnetic variable reluctance pickups which typically provide a single-ended AC output. This single input is also fully protected against voltage swings to 28 V, which are easily attained with these types of pickups. The differential input options (LM2907, LM2917) give the user the option of setting his own input switching level and still have the hysteresis around that level for excellent noise rejection in any application. Of course to allow the inputs to attain common-mode voltages above ground, input protection is removed and neither input should be taken outside the limits of the supply voltage being used. It is very important that an input not go below ground without some resistance in its lead to limit the current that will then flow in the epi-substrate diode. Following the input stage is the charge pump where the input frequency is converted to a DC voltage. To do this requires one timing capacitor, one output resistor, and an integrating or filter capacitor. When the input stage changes state (due to a suitable zero crossing or differential voltage on the input) the timing capacitor is either charged or discharged linearly between two voltages whose difference is VCC/2. Then in one half cycle of the input frequency or a time equal to 1/2 fIN the change in charge on the timing capacitor is equal to VCC/2 x C1. The average amount of current pumped into or out of the capacitor is shown in Equation 4. V 'Q = ic(AVG) = C1x CC x (2 fIN ) = VCC x fINx C1 (4) T 2 The output circuit mirrors this current very accurately into the load resistor R1, connected to ground, such that if the pulses of current are integrated with a filter capacitor, then VO = ic x R1, and the total conversion formula becomes Equation 5. VO = VCC x fIN x C1 x R1 x K where * K is the gain constant (typically 1) (5) The size of C2 is dependent only on the amount of ripple voltage allowable and the required response time.

Minimum Component Tachometer Diagram 10.2.1.1 Design Requirements * C1: This capacitor is charged and discharged every cycle by a 180-A typical current source. Smaller capacitors can be charged quicker therefore increasing the maximum readable frequency. However, lower capacitors values reduce the output voltage produced for a given frequency. C1 must not be sized lower than 500-pF die to its role in internal compensation. * R1: This resistor produces the output voltage from current pulses source by the internal charge pump. Higher values increase the output voltage for a given frequency, but too large will degrade the output's linearity. Because the current pulses are a fixed magnitude of 180 A typical, R1 must be big enough to produce the maximum desired output voltage at maximum input frequency. At maximum input frequency the pulse train duty cycle is 100%, therefore the average current is 180 A and R1 = Vo(max) / 180 A. * C2: This capacitor filters the ripple produced by the current pulses sourced by the charge pump. Large values reduce the output voltage ripple but increase the output's response time to changes in input frequency. * Rload: The load resistance must be large enough that at maximum output voltage, the current is under the rated value of 50 mA. 10.2.1.2 Detailed Design Procedure 10.2.1.2.1 Choosing R1 and C1 There are some limitations on the choice of R1 and C1 which should be considered for optimum performance. The timing capacitor also provides internal compensation for the charge pump and must be kept larger than 500 pF for very accurate operation. Smaller values can cause an error current on R1, especially at low temperatures. Several considerations must be met when choosing R1. The output current at pin 3 is internally fixed and therefore VO/R1 must be less than or equal to this value. If R1 is too large, it can become a significant fraction of the output impedance at pin 3 which degrades linearity. Also output ripple voltage must be considered and the size of C2 is affected by R1. An expression that describes the ripple content on pin 3 for a single R1C2 combination is in Equation 6. V VCC x fIN x C1 * C1 VRIPPLE = CC x x 1 pk- pk 2 C2 (c) I2 (6) R1 can be chosen independent of ripple. However, response time, or the time it takes VOUT to stabilize at a new voltage, increases as the size of C2 increases, so a compromise between ripple, response time, and linearity must be chosen carefully. As a final consideration, the maximum attainable input frequency is determined by VCC, C1, and I2 in Equation 7. 14 Submit Documentation Feedback Copyright (c) 2000-2016, Texas Instruments Incorporated Product Folder Links: LM2907-N LM2917-N LM2907-N, LM2917-N www.ti.com SNAS555D - JUNE 2000 - REVISED DECEMBER 2016 Typical Applications (continued) fMAX = I2 C1x VCC (7) 10.2.1.2.2 Using Zener Regulated Options (LM2917) For those applications where an output voltage or current must be obtained independent of supply voltage variations, the LM2917 is offered. The most important consideration in choosing a dropping resistor from the unregulated supply to the device is that the tachometer and op amp circuitry alone require about 3 mA at the voltage level provided by the Zener. At low supply voltages there must be some current flowing in the resistor above the 3-mA circuit current to operate the regulator. As an example, if the raw supply varies from 9 V to 16 V, a resistance of 470 minimizes the Zener voltage variation to 160 mV. If the resistance goes under 400 or over 600 , the Zener variation quickly rises above 200 mV for the same input variation. 10.2.1.3 Application Curves C1 = .01 F Rdrop = 910 C2 = 1 F R1 = 100 k Zener Regulated VCC = 7.58 V C1 = .01 F Rdrop = 910 Figure 16.

For the 8-pin LM2907 and LM2917, devices with a fixed ground reference for TACH-, the tachometer inputs can intake voltages between 28 V. LM2907 and LM2917 devices have both tachometer inputs available at the cost of input protection features. This means neither input should be taken outside of the supply voltage range without additional precautions (see Application Information).

When using a through-hole package, it is acceptable to place the bypass capacitor on the bottom layer. All other components must be placed as close to the device as possible. Use of a ground plane is recommended to provide a low-impedance ground across the circuit. Feedback loops must use short and wide traces. 12.2 Layout Example Figure 48.
