Abstract
A method for evaluating an analog signal of an inductive sensor that carries data on a rotational motion includes directly connecting the inductive sensor to an A-D converter via resistors, and reading in the analog signal by the A-D converter to emit digital data. The digital data is evaluated to determine zero crossings of the analog signal.
