Hi I'm Max from Italy!
I've seen on your site and I hope you can answer me!
I need to split the rpm speed signal of my CPU fan, and I've split it (a branch to the mother board and other branch to an external rheobus) with a simple cable,
but the reading value from the mother board is 0 rpm and on rheobus value is lower than the real value.
I think it is because splitting the signal, the square wave tachometer is halved, and not having sufficient amplitude so it is impossible to read correctly.
I must therefore amplify this wave, but not want to amplify it too much, to avoid burning the mother board!
So, I ask you technical information on the internet can not be found:
what is the peak voltage of square wave that corresponds to tachometer signal state " 1 " that travels on the yellow cable?
thanks
