    Automotive RPM converter for tachometer

    I'm doing an engine conversion on a 1988 Mazda Rx7 I'm putting in a I6 engine where the oringinal motor is a rotary engine that has a tach signal like a 4 cylinder. So how can I make the stock tach work properly with the new 6 cylinder output? Any ideas on circuits or maybe you guys...

    Software for circuit deisign and testing?

    Wow, thank you! You guys are awesome. I'm a member on many different forums. You guys are by FAR the most helpful and least argumentative of any.

    Help with simple voltage/current sensing relay.

    Thank you guys so much! It's a thing of beauty. You press the A/C button in the car and the idle raises up and the compressor clutch engages. You've actually found a solution for MANY people who are having this problem with this popular swap. In case anyone was wondering, it's a 95 Toyota...

    Help with simple voltage/current sensing relay.

    yeah i don't know why it didn't work! :( i'll try the one in post 52... any way I can test that the circuit it working with a multimeter? (regardless of whether it works for the ECU) On a side note, i found a small LED in an old broken printer and the signal (4.6v) from the ECU was enough to...

    Help with simple voltage/current sensing relay.

    Do the circuits posted allow the ecu to pull all the power it needs? I tried giving it 12v through some resistors and it would stop engaging the compressor at about 600ohms from a direct ~14v source. It needs about 20-25 mA to kick on (it's 13.6-14.0v when car is running) and holds solid...

    What kind of opto isolator will switch on with the 4.6v and allow the 12v through the other side?

    Help with simple voltage/current sensing relay.

    any more input? I found what seems to be some opto-isolators. Anything in particular i need to use them as a switch?

    well i made these two: https://www.electro-tech-online.com/attachments/relaydrvr-jpg.28937/ And couldn't get either to switch a small relay with supplied signal from AC amp... not sure why
