Technical Description
This input is a smart input module
designed to drive and condition the
signals from two LVDT transducers. The
module contains two high-speed
microcontrollers and a SD 16-bit dual
channel A/D convertor. It communicates
with the selected controller via the I
2
C
data bus. One of the microcontrollers
generates the sine wave for the LVDT
excitation frequency. These frequencies
are produced as multiples of the line
frequency (either 50 Hz or 60 Hz). Up to
16 frequencies are available and are
selected using the controller setup. The
output to the primary coil of both LVDTs is
a 3 V RMS sine wave. The received LVDT
signals are synchronously demodulated
and filtered to remove the carrier
frequency. The Σ Δ 16-bit A/D convertor
has over 130 dB noise rejection at the
excitation frequencies and is capable of
40 Hz averaged output on 45 samples.
Two open collector NPN transistors (SP5
and SP6) are available as high-speed
controlled outputs.
