Motorcycle Universal Gear Indicator
author: Vassilis Papanikolaou- vpapanik gmail.com
Introduction
This is a new design for a universal gear indicator that can be fitted to any
motorcycle as an aftermarket accessory. Its main advantage is that its operation
depends entirely on the gear shift lever movement, instead of connecting to
speedometer and tachometer sensors (found in expensive commercial devices),
which are rarely available in older motorcycles. It consists of a main circuit

including a 7-segment LED indicator, two Hall sensors that are attached to the
motorcycle frame, and a small magnet placed on the gear shift lever.
The main circuit is based on an AVR ATTINY25/45/85 microcontroller, which reads
the signals of the two Hall sensors and the neutral switch and outputs the current
gear number to a 7-segment LED indicator, through a 4026 counter/decoder.

The source code is written in AVR-GCC (WinAVR) and can be programmed withthe default fuses using an AVR programmer (default : ATTINY25 microcontrollerand USBTiny programmer). Moreover, the constant TOP_GEAR 5should bechanged to 6for six-gear motorbikes.

The suggested implementation for the main circuit is a small size, double-sidedPCB, with SMD packages for the microcontroller and the decoder ICs. The 7-segment LED is placed in a secondary PCB, connected vertically to the main onein a modular fashion (see pictures). Two PCBs for different Kingbright LEDfootprints (red and blue) are also provided.

ossible improvement
In the current design, when the neutral switch is open (there is a gear on), there
appears to be a very small current (< 0.5 mA) sinking through R3, due to the
voltage difference between the neutral switch connection (TO_POWER-4) and the
microcontroller. If the neutral indicator is of LED type (not a resistor bulb), there
is a possibility that it stays dimmed, instead of being completely off. In that case,
a small switching diode (1N4148) can nicely replace R3 (on the same PCB) in
order to block this small incoming current when the neutral switch is open, as
shown in the figure below :

A successful circuit build will do a self-test when connected solely to 12V power
(pins TO_POWER_1 and TO_POWER_2), by cycling through all digits on the 7-segment display (see video below). After the self-test, the current gear will beshown and can be changed by the shift lever movement. Note that a gear ischanged when the magnet's southpole is drawn awayfrom the sensor (northpole will not work). Moreover, if a neutral gear is detected (from the neutralswitch connected to TO_POWER_4), the display resets to zero (also acting as aself-calibrating feature if anything goes wrong). Finally, when the power is turnedoff, the last shown gear is stored in the MCU's flash EEPROM and restored whenthe device is turned on again.
