Factors to be considered for Selection of Position Transducers

position transducersFor an efficient control system, the right selection of a position transducer is as important as the signal processing itself. Here are some of the features and trade-off to be considered to match the position transducer to your application.

Even though the position transducers are the most critical parts in a motion control system, many times they are left towards the end to be designed in. A control design engineer can save himself a lot of headache by considering the transducer features and trade-offs at the beginning of the project.

The links on the right provide info on various types of position transducers and the factors to consider when making a selection.
