The CPM-100A converts crankshaft position sensor signals into encoder-equivalent output signals.
It provides high-resolution outputs of 720, 360, or 180 pulses per revolution.
It can be used to generate crank angle signals for combustion, vibration, and noise analysis.
■ Output pulse cycles are corrected depending on fluctuations in the rotational speed
■ There are no output pulse errors
For every low-resolution pulse entered, the pulse multiplication method generally outputs the same number of pulses over a constant period as the multiplying ratio.
This method accumulates errors in the number of pulses output because the input and output phase are not synchronized with each other, producing a deviation in the angle.
On the other hand, since CPM-100A corrects the output pulse cycle depending on fluctuations in the rotational speed, the deviation in the angle does not occur.
There are teeth missing in order to provide an angle reference for the crank position sensor.
As shown in the actual operating waveform in the figure below, CPM-100A continuously outputs a 360p/r signal even if there are missing teeth, and simultaneously outputs a 1p/r signal.
