All About Synchros, Resolvers, And Data Acquisition

摘要

Converting angular rotation to an electrical signal is the job of an AC transducer. Types of transducers include synchros, resolvers, and linear/rotary variable differential transformers (LVDTs/RVDTs). They can be used in a variety of applications, such as an inertial navigation reference unit (gyro or compass), an automatic direction finder (ADF), an omnirange system, distance measurement equipment, cockpit indicators, and landing-gear positioning and control.
