Abstract

A linear displacement sensor comprises two adjacent inductive windings A1, A2 and a ferromagnetic core N movable within the windings so that in a central position the inductances are equal and at positions either side of the central position, one inductance is greater than the other. A d.c. potential VB is applied to the junction between the two windings and the potentials at the ends of the windings are applied to comparators to which are also applied the same reference voltage Vs so that each comparator produces an output signal when the potential applied thereto from a winding exceeds the reference potential. A difference in the inductance between the two windings due to displacement of the core results in the comparators producing output signals at different times t1,t2 due to the change in time constant of the windings. These signals are then processed to give a binary indication of the core displacement on a counter c which counts pulses from clock ck during the time t2-t1 between the production of the comparator output signals.
