Hello,
We use a commercial high quality LVDT sensor from a big brand associated with a PGA970 as signal conditioner.
Normally this LVDT sensor uses a proprietary signal conditioner including probably a PGA970.
To get the value of displacement, we use naivly the ratiometric method described on the TI technical documentation.
As a result, the linearity is very poor, and results are not acceptable. We tried a polynomial correction with little improvement.
How can we improve the linearity of the system ? Is there a suitable algorithm ? Where can we get an example ?
Thank you
