ABSTRACT:
In a reel to reel tape transport system for determining the radii of the reel to reel tape by generating a series of forward and reverse pulses from a brushless DC motor driving the reel to reel tape, generating a forward series of pulses when said tape is turning in the forward direction and a reverse series of pulses when the tape is turning in the reverse direction, using a state machine to determine a forward or reverse revolution of the tape despite tape reversals before the completion of the revolution, and a counter and decoder for decoding the output of the state machine to provide an accurate determination of one revolution of the brushless DC motor.
