AD698APZ

AD698 is a complete, monolithic linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) signal conditioning subsystem. It is used in conjunction with LVDTs to convert transducer mechanical position to a unipolar or bipolar DC voltage with a high degree of accuracy and repeatability. All circuit functions are included on the chip. With the addition of a few external passive components to set frequency and gain, the AD698 converts the raw LVDT output to a scaled DC signal. The device will operate with half-bridge LVDTs, LVDTs connected in the series op-posed configuration (4-wire), and RVDTs. The AD698 contains a low distortion sine wave oscillator to drive the LVDT primary. The AD698 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 no adjustments are necessary temperature stability is improved and transducer interchangeability is improved.
