iC-TW8
16-BIT SIN/COS INTERPOLATOR
WITH AUTO-CALIBRATION
iC-TW8 is a general-purpose, 16-bit interpolation device for
Features
sine/cosine signals featuring automatic signal conditioning. The
angular position is calculated at a constant latency of just 24 μs
and can be tracked by an optional second-order servo loop that
provides lag retrieval.
•
•
Input frequency of up to 125 kHz
Differential sine/cosine input signal range of 20 mV to
1.4 V peak-peak
•
Fractional interpolation factor edged per period of
[8 ... 65536] / [1 ... 32]
The automatic signal conditioning unit includes offset compen-
sation, amplitude correction, and phase correction. Additionally,
an LUT can be used to correct the digitized phase angle
depending on the sensor’s harmonic signal distortion.
•
•
•
Simple automatic one-pin calibration
Easy configuration: by static pins (for generic ABZ output)
Advanced configuration: 1-wire interface, 3 and 4-wire SPI
²
(32 MHz), EEPROM (SPI or I C)
•
•
PWM or ABZ quadrature encoder output signals
Incremental ABZ output to 8 MHz (32 MHz edge
separation)
