CONNECTING THE AD698
The AD698 can easily be connected for dual or single supply
operation as shown in Figures 7, 8 and 13. The following gen-
eral design procedures demonstrate how external component
values are selected and can be used for any LVDT that meets
AD698 input/output criteria. The connections for the A and B
channels and the A channel comparators will depend on which
transducer is used. In general follow the guidelines below.
Parameters set with external passive components include: exci-
tation frequency and amplitude, AD698 input signal frequency,
and the scale factor (V/inch). Additionally, there are optional
features; offset null adjustment, filtering, and signal integration,
which can be implemented by adding external components.
DESIGN PROCEDURE
DUAL SUPPLY OPERATION
Figure 7 shows the connection method for half-bridge LVDTs.
Figure 8 demonstrates the connections for 3- and 4-wire
LVDTs connected in the series opposed configuration. Both ex-
amples use dual 15 volt power supplies.
A. Determine the Oscillator Frequency
Frequency is often determined by the required BW of the sys-
tem. However, in some systems the frequency is set to match
the LVDT zero phase frequency as recommended by the
manufacturer; in this case skip to Step 4.
1. Determine the mechanical bandwidth required for LVDT
2. Select minimum LVDT excitation frequency approximately
+15V

3. Select a suitable LVDT that will operate with an excitation
4. Select excitation frequency determining component C1.
B. Determine the Oscillator Amplitude
Amplitude is set such that the primary signal is in the 1.0 V to
3.5 V rms range and the secondary signal is in the 0.25 V to
3.5 V rms range when the LVDT is at its mechanical full-scale
position. This optimizes linearity and minimizes noise suscepti-
bility. Since the part is ratiometric, the exact value of the excita-
tion is relatively unimportant.
5. Determine optimum LVDT excitation voltage, V

frequency of 2.5 kHz. The Schaevitz E100, for instance, will
operate over a range of 50 Hz to 10 kHz and is an eligible
candidate for this example.
Opposed LVDT and Dual Supply Operation
4-wire LVDT determine the voltage transformation ratio,
VTR, of the LVDT at its mechanical full scale. VTR =
LVDT sensitivity
LVDT sensitivity is listed in the LVDT manufacturer’s cata-
log and has units of volts output per volts input per inch dis-
placement. The E100 has a sensitivity of 2.4 mV/V/mil. In
the event that LVDT sensitivity is not given by the manufac-
turer, it can be computed. See section on determining LVDT
sensitivity.
