The CS4101 is specifically designed for use with air-core meter movements. The IC provides all the functions necessary for an analog tachometer or speedometer. The CS4101 takes a speed sensor input and generates sine and cosine related output signals to differentially drive an air-core meter. Many enhancements have been added over industry standard
tachometer drivers such as the CS-289 or LM1819. The output utilizes differential drivers which eliminates the need for a zener reference and offer.

Description
Features
The CS4101 is specifically designed for use with air-core meter movements. The IC provides all the functions necessary for an analog tachometer or speedometer. The CS4101 takes a speed sensor input and generates sine and cosine related output signals to differentially drive an air-core meter.
Many enhancements have been added over industry standard
tachometer drivers such as the CS-289 or LM1819. The output utilizes differential drivers which eliminates the need for a zener reference and offers more torque. The device withstands 60V transients which decreases the protection circuitry required.
