What is Arduino®
Arduino® is an open-source prototyping platform based on easy-to-use hardware and software. Arduino® boards are able to read inputs light-on sensor, a finger on a button or a Twitter message and turn it into an output activating of a motor, turning on an LED, publishing something online. You can tell your board what to do by sending a set of instructions to the microcontroller on the board. To do so, you use the Arduino programming language (based on Wiring) and the Arduino® software IDE (based on Processing). Additional shields/modules/components are required for reading a twitter message or publishing online. Surf to www.arduino.cc for more information.
Product Overview
General
The WPSE347 is a LM393 speed sensor module, widely used in motor speed detection, pulse count, position control, etc. The sensor is very easy to operate: To measure the speed of a motor, make sure the motor has a disk with holes. Each hole should be equally spaced on the disk. Every time the sensor sees a hole, it creates a digital pulse on the D0 pin. This pulse goes from 0 V to 5 V and is a digital TTL signal. If you capture this pulse on a development board and calculate the time between the two pulses, you can determine the revolutions speed: (time between pulses x 60)/number of holes. For example, if you have one hole in the disk and the time between two pulses is 3 seconds, you have a revolutions speed of 3 x 60 = 180 rpm. If you have 2 holes in the disk, you have a revolutions speed of (3 x 60/2) = 90 rpm.

If the WPSE347 is used close to a DC motor, it may pick-up interferences with as result more pulses on DO as there really are. In this case use a ceramic capacitor with a value between 10 and 100 nF between DO and GND (debounce). This capacitor should be as close as possible to the WPI437.

Testing Sketch
const int sensorPin = 2; // PIN 2 has been used as input void setup() { Serial.begin(9600); pinMode(sensorPin , INPUT); } void loop(){ int value = 0; value = digitalRead(sensorPin ); if (value == LOW) {
Serial.println("Active"); } if (value == HIGH) {
Serial.println("No-Active"); } delay(1000); } The result in the serial monitor:
