    Magnitude response - 10kHz EXC (1-2000 Hz) 1000 Frequency (Hz) Typical magnitude response for 10 kHz EXC Phase response - 10kHz EXC (1-2000 Hz) 1000 Frequency (Hz) Typical phase response for 10kHz EXC 3 / 11 www.dewesoft.com...
  • Page 6: Theory Of Operation

    Theory of operation DSI - LVDT Adapter uses a unique ratiometric architecture to eliminate several of the disadvantages associated with traditional approaches to LVDT interfacing. The benefits of this new circuit are: minimal adjustments are required; temperature stability is improved; and transducer interchangeability is improved.
  • Page 7: Lvdt Adapter Output Sensitivity To Input Signal Phase Lead/Lag, 1:1 Sensor

    When phase compensation matches phase lead / lag of sensor output LVDT adapter output will be at its maximum = 0,5 (=1Vexc ∙ sensitivity ∙ 1,00). Example: 45⁰ sensor output, Example: 45⁰ sensor output, no compensation 45⁰ compensation 5 / 11 www.dewesoft.com...
