SDC-14610/15 SERIES
THREE CHANNEL 14- AND 16-BIT
TRACKING S/D CONVERTERS
FEATURES
DESCRIPTION
The SDC-14610/15 Series are small low
cost triple synchro- or resolver-to-digital
converters. The SDC-14610 Series is
fixed at 14 bits, the SDC-14615 at 16
bits. The three channels are indepen-
dent tracking types but share digital out-
put pins and a common reference.
The velocity output (VEL) from the
SDC-14610/15 Series, which can be
used to replace a tachometer, is a 4 V
signal referenced to ground with a lin-
earity of 1% of output voltage.
A BIT output is optional and is a logic
line that indicates LOS (Loss Of
Signal) or excessive converter error.
Due to pin limitations this option will
exclude the velocity output.
SDC-14610/15 Series conver t-
ers are available with operating
temperature ranges of 0°C to
+70°C and -55°C to +125°C, and
MIL-PRF-38534 processing is
available.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The SDC-14610/15 Series of converters are based upon a sin-
gle chip CMOS custom monolithic. They are implemented using
the latest IC technology which merges precision analog circuitry
with digital logic to form a complete high performance tracking
resolver-to-digital converter.
FIGURE 1 is the Functional Block Diagram of SDC-14610/15
Series. The converter operates with ±5 VDC power supplies.
Analog signals are referenced to analog ground, which is at
ground potential. The converter is made up of three main sec-
tions; an input front-end, a converter, and a digital interface. The
converter front-end differs for synchro, resolver and direct inputs.
An electronic Scott-T is used for synchro inputs, a resolver con-
ditioner for resolver inputs and a sine and cosine voltage follow-
er for direct inputs. These amplifiers feed the high accuracy
Control Transformer (CT). Its other input is the 14-bit digital angle
φ.
Its output is an analog error angle, or difference angle,
between the two inputs. The CT performs the ratiometric trigono-
metric computation of SINθCOSφ - COSθSINφ = SIN(θ -
φ)
using
amplifiers, switches, logic and capacitors in precision ratios.
The converter accuracy is limited by the precision of the com-
puting elements in the CT. In these converters, ratioed capacitors
are used in the CT instead of more conventional precision
ratioed resistors. Capacitors used as computing elements with
op-amps need to be sampled to eliminate voltage drifting.
Therefore, the circuits are sampled at a high rate to eliminate this
drifting and at the same time to cancel out the op-amp offsets.
The error processing is performed using the industry standard
technique for type II tracking R/D converters. The DC error is
integrated yielding a velocity voltage which, in turn, drives a volt-
age controlled oscillator (VCO). This VCO is an incremental inte-
grator (constant voltage input to position rate output) which,
together with the velocity integrator, forms a type II servo feed-
back loop. A lead in the frequency response is introduced to sta-
bilize the loop and another lag at higher frequency is introduced
to reduce the gain and ripple at the carrier frequency and above.

GENERAL SETUP CONSIDERATIONS
The following recommendations should be considered when
connecting the SDC-14610/15 Series converters:
1) Power supplies are ±5 VDC. For lowest noise performance it
is recommended that a 0.1 µF or larger cap be connected
from each supply to ground near the converter package.
2) Direct inputs are referenced to AGND.
3) Connect pin 5 (GND) to pin 6 (AGND) close to the hybrid.
INHIBIT AND ENABLE TIMING
The Inhibit (INH) signal is used to freeze the digital output angle
in the transparent output data latch while data is being trans-
ferred. Application of an Inhibit signal does not interfere with the
continuous tracking of the converter. As shown in FIGURE 3,
angular output data is valid 500 nanoseconds maximum after the
application of the low-going inhibit pulse.
Output angle data is enabled onto the tri-state data bus in six
bytes. The Enable MSB (EM-A, EM-B, or EM-C) is used for the
most significant 8 bits and Enable LSB (EL-A, EL-B, or EL-C) is
used for the least significant bits. As shown in FIGURE 4, output
data is valid 150 nanoseconds maximum after the application of
a low-going enable pulse. The tri-state data bus returns to the
high impedance state 100 nanoseconds maximum after the ris-
ing edge of the enable signal.
TRANSFER FUNCTION AND BODE PLOT
The dynamic performance of the converter can be determined
from its functional block diagram and its Bode plots (open and
closed loop); these are shown in FIGURES 1 and 2 respectively.
The open loop transfer function is as follows:

VEL A (Velocity Output)
(see Note 2)
This output is a logic line that will flag an internal fault condition,
or LOS (Loss-Of-Signal). The internal fault detector monitors the
internal error and, when it exceeds ±100 LSBs, will set the line
to a logic 0; this condition will occur during a large-step input and
will reset to a logic 1 after the converter settles out. (The error
voltage is filtered with a 500 µs filter) BIT will set for an overve-
locity condition because the converter loop can’t maintain
input/output sync. BIT will also be set if a total LOS (loss of all
signals) occurs.

NO FALSE 180° HANGUP
This feature eliminates the “false 180° reading” during instanta-
neous 180° step changes; this condition most often occurs when
the input is “electronically switched” from a digital-to-synchro
converter. If the “MSB” (or 180° bit) is “toggled” on and off, a con-
verter without the “false 180° reading” feature may fail to
respond.
The condition is artificial, as a “real” synchro or resolver cannot
change its output 180° instantaneously. The condition is most
often noticed during wraparound verification tests, simulations,
or troubleshooting.
