Abstract
In a position transducer arrangement one or more AC operable position transducers are energised by the output of a variable amplitude oscillator. The output signals from the oscillator and the or each transducer are demodulated, or detected in turn by the same demodulator and the demodulated oscillator signal is compared with a reference signal to produce a difference signal. The difference signal is used to adjust the amplitude of the oscillator signal in the sense to reduce the difference signal to zero.
