Abstract
A control system for a mechanical oscillator having a sinusoidal drive signal with a frequency that is a fractional multiple of a frequency of a signal of the mechanical oscillator. The drive signal may be in phase and in registration with the signal from the mechanical oscillator. A sense signal may be picked off from the oscillator and be demodulated to obtain a parameter sensed by the oscillator. The drive signal to the oscillator may be selected or blanked out while receiving and demodulating the sense signal.
