ABSTRACT:
A method and a device for detecting rotational speed with an inductive sensor in which a sinusoidal potential is induced by a magnet wheel and then fed to a filter with a comparator connected downstream of the filter and therefrom into a square-wave signal that is essentially proportional to the rotational speed of the magnet wheel. This output signal of the comparator is evaluated in a microcomputer. In this evaluation, only the same type of edges of the comparator signal are evaluated, specifically those in which the intervals fluctuate less when considered over a certain time span. The microcomputer here can initially evaluate both types of edges, that is, positive and negative edges, and then use those edges in which smaller fluctuations, that is, interference, are determined for calculating the rotational speed. The microcomputer can also first evaluate only one type of edges and change over to edges of the other type only if the former displays interference above a present value. If the edges of the other type show even greater interference than those of the first type, then the system switches back to the first type. The changeover can be done either in the microcomputer or externally. The external changeover to the type of edge can be done by an external inverter or by reversing the polarity of the sensor output signals by means of a controllable switch.
