linear position sensor

Mar 25, 2005 2 Replies

Hi all, i need an application note describing a schematic for a linear position sensor, in "time of flight" mode. The range of sensing is from 1 mt to



1 cm, and the resolution less than 1 cm

thanks


you want something like an Ultra Sonic Proximity with analog output?

With TOF i mean a method measuring the round trip from the reflection of a pulsed laser beam. Nevertheless, as light travels about 30.5 cm per ns, i think the desired resolution requires estraordinarily precise timing
