PRODUCTION DATA
In some applications, it is necessary to have redundancy with respect to the angle feedback information. One option for achieving redundancy is to have two independent sensors each with their own LDC5071-Q1 device. Alternatively, the system can be configured in a way that the sensor rotor is shared between two sets of excitation and receive coils with two LDC5071-Q1 devices. This configuration is possible because the structure of the LCIN and LCOUT pins prevent current from back-flowing into the device even when one device is in the FAULT state. This prevents the disabled device from loading the active device. All coils are drawn on the same PCB. Refer to Table 7-1 for component values.
Both LDC5071-Q1 devices can be supplied by the same voltage, provided that system level safety requirements are satisfied.
