Introduction
Ka SMU-9000 measuring systems use
inductive (eddy current) technology to measure position without
contacting the target. SMU-9000 measuring systems are ideally
suited for applications requiring high resolution and economical
performance-to-price ratio. Based on Kaman’s proprietary Pulse
Width Modulated electronics, the SMU-9000 systems incorporate
the latest surface-mount components with printed circuit board
designs. The use of pulse width modulation techniques virtually
eliminates the noise of traditional linear amplifiers, thereby
“unmasking” position/motion sensing down into sub-atomic
dimensions. This technology requires only simple, single ended
supply voltage and low power circuitry.
