Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	A turbocharger is used within a vehicle and includes an electronic actuator assembly. The electronic actuator assembly includes an actuator housing coupled to at least one of the turbine housing, the compressor housing, and the bearing housing, and an accelerometer coupled to the actuator housing. The accelerometer is adapted to detect vibration of at least one of the turbine housing, the compressor housing, the bearing housing, and the actuator housing thereby obtaining acceleration data of at least one of the turbine housing, the compressor housing, the bearing housing, and the actuator housing to determine rotational speed of the turbocharger shaft. Another embodiment includes a vibration detection assembly having an accelerometer coupled to a vehicle component and the vehicle component is one or more of a turbocharger, a valve assembly, an electronically driven compressor, and a turbocharger having an integral electric motor.
