I have a motor controller circuit and Im trying to measure the ammount of switching going to a motor with my DAQ. The signal I need to measure resembles a PWM signal but it varies in frequency instead of pulse width. I would like to monitor the signal with Lab view. Currently, Im using a DAQ 6009 to measure that PWM signal as an RMS voltage. However this method is very inconsistant. Can anyone help me with a way to monitor this pwm signal? The idea is to be able to tell when the motor reaches a certain speed threshold.
