use of photodiode in rpm measurement
Photodidoe in the Rpm instrument is used to measure the speed of the motor.
for example consider Dc motor ,Dc motor has white and blsck surface ,reflecting and non non reflecting surfaces.
When the light strikes black surface ,PN diode doesnot receive photon and when light strikes the white surface ,PN didoe receives the Photon. On receiving light from white surface comparator give input pulseto uc denoting one revolution.
No receive of light from back surface,comparator gives low pulse to uc denoting it is rotating
