What is a LVDT sensor?

What is a LVDT sensor?

What is a LVDT Sensor? What is a Linear Variable Differential Transformer? An LVDT is an electromechanical device used to convert mechanical motion or vibrations, specifically rectilinear motion, into a variable electrical current, voltage or electric signals, and the reverse.

What is LVDT/RVDT signal conditioning electronics?

TE’s LVDT / RVDT signal conditioning electronics can be used with a wide range of AC LVDTs, RVDTs, and VR half-bridges to provide DC voltage, current, or digital outputs.

What is the output linearity of an LVDT?

The figure shows also that the output of an LVDT is very linear over its specified range of core motion, but that the sensor can be used over an extended range with some reduction in output linearity. FIGURE 3: The output characteristics of an LVDT vary with different positions of the core.

What is single axis sensitivity in LVDT?

Single Axis Sensitivity An LVDT responds to motion of the core along the coil’s axis, but is generally insensitive to cross-axis motion of the core or to its radial position.
