Thanks John !

You don't need a pull down for that hall effect sensor, you need a pull up. The output is the collector of an NPN transistor, so open collector.

There is a datasheet:

Brown is supply to sensor.?
Black is Open Collector output (if you don't put a pullup, it will only float up)
Blue is sensor ground

page 3 shows the schematic you would use, including a level shifter made of resistors to keep the output voltage in the range the processor needs. You can adjust the resistors to make the range be 0..3.1v if that is what you need.

Interesting.? I sent two photos and neither of them showed up on the forum.

Alex, would you share your code?

It was an H92B4 photo interrupter.? It worked very well both for counting oil drips and with a small metal strip passing between the legs to measure rpm.

There’s no specification on those devices as to speed.? I would not use them as spindle sensors.

Alex, yes, I did the same.? I had a spare phase on my spindle encoder and used that.? I made a lash-up system with a photo interrupter just to prove it worked and for the benefit of anyone building the system who didn't have an available encoder phase.? I think the photo interrupters were only a couple of quid each and really easy to set up.

A encoder sounds like a much more stable unit than a pair of led's readin? line? or 4 on a spinning shaft . Probably get much less bounce that way .

Haven't used them yet but I settled on QRE1113 (through hole) for track sensors for a N Scale layout.

I only need to detect at about 3mm max. About 3.6 x 2.9 x 1.7 mm ...

Re: anyone have one of these ?

 

oops, got an error in there - SDS1102 is the model you were looking at, but the answer remains the same, multiple brands, same comments apply...

Here is a reddit that talks about them:

Last comment in the thread was interesting...

While non-recognisable brands might be a diamond in the rough, there is no way to tell. If you buy a name branded model, then you have a chance they have a reputation to look at.

If you are looking at waveforms and that is about it, you probably will find such a scope useful and satisfactory.
