Abstract
A position measurement system includes a material measure and a sampling device, arranged movably with respect to one another relative to a measurement direction. The material measure includes a multiplicity of markings arranged in a row relative to the measurement direction. The sampling device includes a transmitter winding arrangement and a plurality of receiver coils. The receiver coils are arranged in a row relative to the measurement direction such that inductive coupling between the transmitter winding arrangement and the receiver coils is dependent on a position of the sampling device relative to the material measure. The sampling device further includes an operational amplifier having a first and a second output terminal. The receiver coils are connected via a switching device to the operational amplifier such that a single coil or a pair of receiver coils is configured for selective connection on an input side to the operational amplifier.
