Epe pic magnetometer

For FG-3+ no need RC filter. It is integrated inside sensor.
For my logger I did add also schmid trigger on input. Result are much better

I will try with a Schmitt trigger...

Hello.
I made an LC filter (L = 6.8uH and C = 560pF) as indicated in the article, all close to 4013. I then attached to the device a single sensor with 3 short threads 15cm in length, but unfortunately, the problem persists, and the frequency reading is still unstable ... I do not know where the problem is.

Have you looked at the signal with an O'scope?
It should have clean square waves without jitter.

Unfortunately, I do not have an oscilloscope to check. Do you have another idea to check the sensor output? I can build an oscilloscope on Computer?

I tried 74hc14 schmitt trigger and unfortunately the same issues, have not changed anything ... either microcontroller firmware is not compatible with the sensors or sensors have a problem ... but strange that there are several projects used these sensors and never talk about these problems ...Mag-Schield for exemple On the fgsensors.com site.

Maybe the PC's audio input can be used. Search internet for methods.

Thanks. The audio card of the PC is limited to the band of 20khz.

The other option is a USB Scope. Pico Scope is one that is available plus some others.

Can the scheme for EPE ?

Can the scheme for EPE ?

the complete project schema.

the complete project schema.

Thank you ! Who is the orbit ?I'm a beginner and you are cheeky or kidding.

I realized another schematic (the Mag-Shield on fgsensors.com, website of manufacturer ) and I tried with a single sensor far from any electromagnetic noise. Same problem, unstable frequency reading. So the sensors that I received have a problem. Thank you.

Hi
Can you send me sensors back (address in on box), so I will check it and resend you back new one. You can also send me logger so I can check all.

Thank you. what is your address to send you the sensors.

[amitech1982]

I can't send the device, I'm afraid that it will be reserved in the customs. And I'm sure that the device does not have problems.
