TWO-DIMENSION DIGITAL RATIOMETRIC DECODER

摘要

A two-dimensional all-digital ratiometric decoder to analyze signals representative of state changes in a closed loop control system. In one embodiment, the two-dimensional digital ratiometric decoder comprises at least one selector circuit, a summation circuit, a difference circuit and a divider circuit. The at least one selector circuit is adapted to select the signals to be processed by alternating between the signals representative of the X dimension and the signals representative of the Y dimension. The summation circuit is adapted to add the amplitude magnitudes of the signals selected. The difference circuit is adapted to obtain the difference between the amplitude magnitudes of the signals selected. The divider circuit is adapted to divide the output of the difference circuit by the output of the summation circuit to produce a quotient proportional to the physical change of the object being controlled.
