    Cutaway view of an LVDT. Current is driven through the primary coil at A, causing an induction current to be generated through the secondary coils at B.. The linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) – also called linear variable displacement transformer, [1] linear variable displacement transducer, [2] or simply differential transformer [3] – is a type of electrical transformer [4 ...

  3. Resolver (electrical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Resolver_(electrical)

    Concept of rotor excited resolver Rotor excitation and response. The most common type of resolver is the brushless transmitter resolver (other types are described at the end).

  4. Transducer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transducer

    A transducer is a device that converts energy from one form to another. Usually a transducer converts a signal in one form of energy to a signal in another. [1] Transducers are often employed at the boundaries of automation, measurement, and control systems, where electrical signals are converted to and from other physical quantities (energy, force, torque, light, motion, position, etc.).

  5. Rotary variable differential transformer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotary_variable...

    The transformer has a rotor which can be turned by an external force. The transformer acts as an electromechanical transducer that outputs an alternating current (AC) voltage proportional to the angular displacement of its rotor shaft. In operation, an alternating current (AC) voltage is applied to the transformer primary to energize the RVDT.

    An LVDT (Linear Variable Differential Transformer) Variable Area Rotameter, is a meter designed to measure the flow rate of a fluid or gas. [citation needed]

  8. IEEE 1451 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_1451

    IEEE 1451 is a set of smart transducer interface standards developed by the Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers (IEEE) Instrumentation and Measurement Society's Sensor Technology Technical Committee describing a set of open, common, network-independent communication interfaces for connecting transducers (sensors or actuators) to microprocessors, instrumentation systems, and ...

  9. Gauge (instrument) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gauge_(instrument)

    The output of the transducer is plugged into an algorithm to calculate the force applied to the transducer. The linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) a type of electrical transformer used for measuring linear displacement. The transformer has three solenoidal coils placed end-to-end around a tube.
