Product Overview
The AD698APZ is a complete, monolithic Linear Variable Differential Transformer (LVDT) signal conditioner manufactured by Analog Devices. This highly specialized subsystem converts raw mechanical displacement signals from LVDTs and RVDTs into precise, low-noise DC voltage outputs with exceptional accuracy. By integrating an internal low-distortion sine wave oscillator, a power amplifier, synchronous demodulators, and filtering circuitry on a single chip, the drastically minimizes component counts and eliminates the complex calibration routines typically associated with discrete circuit designs. Its advanced ratiometric decoding architecture ensures that variations in core component tolerances or temperature-induced excitation changes do not compromise the overall measurement system integrity.
Core Advantages
Complete Monolithic LVDT Subsystem
The device consolidates all essential signal conditioning functions—including excitation generation, synchronous demodulation, and error amplification—into a single package. This self-contained layout reduces overall circuit footprint, eliminates parasitic noise, and shortens design cycles.
Ratiometric Architecture for Enhanced Stability
By executing an advanced mathematical division of the primary output against the secondary input signals, the AD698APZ dynamically compensates for temperature drifts, excitation voltage fluctuations, and variations in cable resistance, ensuring robust long-term measurement consistency.
Wide Frequency and Voltage Range Flexibility
Engineered with adjustable internal oscillator and filter networks, the IC can handle driving frequencies ranging from 20 Hz up to 20 kHz. This wide range enables effortless compatibility with an expansive spectrum of industrial position sensors.
Outstanding Technical Precision
Featuring extremely low non-linearity and drift characteristics, the AD698APZ is capable of capturing micrometer-level structural movements accurately, making it the ideal choice for mission-critical aerospace, military, and precision manufacturing equipment.
