AD598 LVDT Position Sensing System Designer https://explore.partquest.com/node/261309 <iframe allowfullscreen="true" referrerpolicy="origin-when-cross-origin" frameborder="0" width="100%" height="720" scrolling="no" src="https://explore.partquest.com/node/261309"></iframe> Title Description <p>A Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT) is used for a single-axis remote position sensing system. Analog signal conditioning is provided by an AD598* from Analog Devices. The AD595 features "ratiometric" signal scaling, which makes it insensitive to a common source of measurement error; That error due to excitation amplitude variability. This variation can be due to external changes in operation, such as cable length changes or cable temperature variation</p> <p>This design is "Live - Interactive", so the user can change any of the parameters shown in blue, and run new simulations to see the results of those changes. It may be interesting to verify the rock-solid digital (integer) output codes that represent the position extremes for this mechanical system, even when the cable length and temperature are varied over their full supported range.</p> <p>* This model of the AD598 is not certified by Analog Devices, and only represents behavior that is publicly described in the device datasheet.</p> About text formats Tags LVDTDisplacement sensorPosition sensorMechatronicsAD598ratiometric Select a tag from the list or create your own.Drag to re-order taxonomy terms.
