>So how are you getting these free samples?
I own a business named "Xephic Technology" which primarily is a small
consulting company for Lan/Wan & server infrastructure, but the name is
meaningless (much like Xerox) so it can at a moment's notice, be slanted
towards the embedded electronics market as well as the automotive market.
See, we develop new products :)
>constrain our discussion to the "how" and "why" of EFI. I'm here to
Same as you, this is why I chose the PC platform. Technically right or
wrong, I can get something working quicker. Smaller learning curve. Maybe
down the road I could extropolate what I have learned and embed it into
something the size of a $5 bill. Size and current draw is irrelevant.
Functionality is. With Linux, I have all the tools necessary to make this
work. Real time OS, multi-threaded OS, its not -that- huge unlike NT, it
supports serial, video, networking, etc, has a compiler, and is absolutely
free. Free is good.
>So, what are people doing for crank angel sensors? I've thought about
I use two sensors, crank sensor, and cam sensor. The units I use were
purchased from Electromotive specifically for their Tec II unit, which I
have, and redrilling the sensor plates to match my Dodge engine was a breeze
for one of my buddies. Me, I can't drill a round hole with my drill press
:)

resolution, but enough to survive by.
