The LM2917 is a monolithic frequency to voltage converters with a high gain op-amp/comparator designed to operate a relay, lamp, or another load when the input frequency reaches or exceeds a selected rate. The tachometer uses a charge pump technique and offers frequency doubling for low ripple, full input protection in two versions (LM2907-8, LM2917-8), and its output swings to the ground for a zero frequency input.
