About this manual

The document details how to interface Analog Devices' 2S80 Series Resolver-to-Digital Converters (models 2S80, 2S81, and 2S82) with four-wire resolver format signals or synchro format signals. It explains that while traditional Scott-T transformers provide galvanic isolation, they can be costly and large; therefore, a solid-state circuit using operational amplifiers is presented as an alternative.

Frequently asked questions

What are the nominal input signal amplitudes required for the 2S80, 2S81, and 2S82 converters?

These devices require nominal 2 V rms amplitude signals to interface with four-wire resolver formats.

What is the maximum angular error introduced by using 0.1% tolerance resistors in this circuit?

The angular errors will range from a typical 2 arc minutes to a maximum of 7 arc minutes.
