Abstract
A circuit is disclosed for driving an electronic speedometer (or tachometer) and an associated odometer of the type suitable for use in automobiles, trucks and tractors. The circuit includes a programmable divider which can be user calibrated so that a change in a system parameter, such as tire size, can be accommodated. The circuit employs a pulse generator producing timing pulses for a magnetically driven air core gauge. The timing pulses are produced in response to pulses indicative of the remote condition being sensed as, for example, wheel rotation or engine speed.
