Timer/Counter Mode Angle
In angle measurement mode the counter will use a user defined maximum angle and revert back to zero when this count value is reached.
Using the reset input the measured angle can be synchronized to the mechanical angle. The real
-
time calculators can extract the RPM from
the measured angle independent from the mechanical synchronization.

Reference
User selectable. Enables the use of the reset pin to reference the mechanical angle to the
measured angle
Angle at reference point
User defined to specify mechanical reference point
