Abstract
A position sensing circuit that can be used with a position control device including a differential sensing coil unit having a first sensing coil and a second sensing coil disposed to face a conductor disposed on one side of a lens barrel. The position sensing circuit includes: a differential oscillation circuit generating a first oscillation signal having a first amplitude based on a first inductance of the first sensing coil, variable according to positional movement of the conductor, and a second oscillation signal having a second amplitude based on a second inductance of the second sensing coil, variable according to positional movement of the conductor; an amplitude detection circuit detecting the first amplitude of the first oscillation signal and the second amplitude of the second oscillation signal; and a signal processing circuit calculating the first amplitude and the second amplitude to calculate a position value.
