Analog Tachometer for Gasoline Engines:

Circuit Converts Pulse Width to Voltage #2: 10/28/99 EDN-Design Ideas / The circuit is optimized for a positive-going pulse width of 1 to 2 msec, repeating at intervals of approximately17 msec. The output produces a voltage of0.95V for a1-msec pulse to 2.25V for a2-msec pulse.

Circuit converts pulse width to voltage: 10/25/2001 EDN - Design Ideas / The circuit in Figure 1 converts pulse information to a clean dc voltage by the end of a single incoming pulse. In another technique, an RC filter can convert a PWM signal to an averaged dc voltage, but this method is slow in responding. Converting low-duty-cycle pulse information is slower yet.
