LVDT9312 is a compact, reliable and highly versatile LVDT-to-digital conversion module. Most commonly used
LVDTs can easily be used with the module without any additional signal adaption. The module has a built-in
excitation oscillator inclusive power stage which can drive most
LVDT’s
directly without the necessity of an
external power booster. All module parameter are interactively adjustable via software.
The LVDT9312 accepts a wide voltage supply range from 9V to 36V and provides galvanic isolation between the
cRIO and the demodulator interface. The module is useable within the NI cRIO real time environment and can
also be plugged into a NI R-series expansion chassis with PCI / PXI FPGA card. We provide all drivers required for
the cRIO system and LabVIEW integration examples.
LVDT9312 applications include industrial and military position control systems such as motor control, robotics
and many kinds of servo loops which use LVDT.
