Re: Always ON Power Design!

Why not to just use a built-in ignition switch controlled LDO such as LM9070 to wake up MCU first?

Then the MCU starts to control of the other actuator power.

Re: New wideband controller ALM compared to Innovate LM-2

Although I could not fully read and understand the fights under this post, I am really confused about the claim of the advantages over innovate. As I know and in our practive the analog output from LM-2, LC-1, or ALM could be created by PWM output with OP AMP or DAC. That means the output is created...

Re: Separating the power and signal grounds on a V3 board

Need to discuss one point about Battery Voltage Sensing. In the above photo, the Battery Vol Sensing circuit is attached on the input of U5, but at this point the voltage had been regulated by before circuit, right? May the Battery Voltage not be correctly reflected? Would the injector and ignition ...

Re: Separating the power and signal grounds on a V3 board

Find out the real root of my fault.
The connection is exactly right.
The reason of MS-II frozen is that :
I set up. 1 squirt per cycle, 1 cylinder, and then chose Missing Tooth Trigger.
The equation on the MS-II code will have problem in calculation.

Hi, Really really appreciate you hard work and sharing. I am new in this forum, but have follow the above instruction to modify my V3 board. What I discover is that if I attached the Battery Voltage sensing on pin1 of U5, the MS2 could be always frozen. But If I attached it to the V12 directly, ever...
