LVDTer
LVDTer (short for Low-Voltage Linear Variable Differential Transformer) is a class of displacement sensors derived from the traditional linear variable differential transformer (LVDT). It is designed to operate at reduced excitation voltages while maintaining a high-resolution, linear output over a defined sensing range. LVDTer devices typically provide an AC differential voltage on secondary windings, which is conditioned to produce a DC or digital signal proportional to core displacement.
Construction and operation: Like an LVDT, an LVDTer consists of a movable ferromagnetic core threaded through
Variants and integration: Standard LVDT-like configurations may be adapted with onboard electronics, producing ratiometric DC outputs,
Applications and advantages: LVDTer sensors are considered for space-constrained or safety-critical environments where high sensitivity is
