DIGITAL INDICATION TYPE SPEEDOMETER

摘要

A digital indication type speedometer for indicating a speed of a vehicle by use of a digital signal such as numerals, wherein a gate circuit (10) is opened at each predetermined time in synchronism with a rise of a speed pulse generated in proportion to the speed of the vehicle, the number of rises which have passed through the gate circuit is counted at each predetermined time and latched in the indication register (14) until the succeeding counting is completed, and the value latched in the indication register is indicated by an indicator (16). This speedometer can offer such advantages that the flickering of the indication during running of the vehicle at a constant speed is decreased and the error between the actual speed of the vehicle and the indicated speed are reduced.
