DESCRIPTION
The RDC-19220 Series of converters are low-cost, versatile, 16-bit
monolithic, state-of-the-art Resolver(/LVDT)-to-Digital Converters.
These single-chip converters are available in small 40-pin DDIP,
44-pin J-Lead, and 44-pin MQFP packages and offer programmable
features such as resolution, bandwidth and velocity output scaling.
Resolution programming allows selection of 10-, 12-, 14-, or 16-bit,
with accuracies to 2.3 minutes. This feature combines the high track-
ing rate of a 10-bit converter with the precision and low-speed veloc-
ity resolution of a 16-bit converter in one package.
The velocity output (VEL) from the RDC-19220 Series, which can be
used to replace a tachometer, is a 4 V signal (3.5 V with the +5 V only
option) referenced to ground with a linearity of 0.75% of output voltage.
The full scale value of VEL is set by the user with a single resistor.
RDC-19220 Series converters are available with operating tempera-
ture ranges of 0° to +70°C, -40° to +85°C and -55° to +125°C. Military
processing is available.
APPLICATIONS
With its low cost, small size, high accuracy and versatile performance,
the RDC-19220 Series converter is ideal for use in modern high-
performance industrial and military control systems. Typical applica-
tions include motor control, radar antenna positioning, machine tool
control, robotics, and process control. MIL-PRF-38534 processing is
available for military applications.

Notes for TABLE 1:(from previous page)
1. Unused data bits are set to logic “0.”
2. In LVDT mode, Bit 3 is the MSB and resolution is programmable to
8, 10, 12, and 14 bits.
3. Accuracy calculation for LVDT mode is described in the LVDT
Accuracy section.
4. See text, General Setup Considerations and HigherTracking Rates.
5. See text: General Setup Considerations for RDC19222.
6. Any unused input pins may be left floating (unconnected). All input
pins are internally pulled-up to +5 Volts.
7. Ka = Acceleration constant, for a full definition see the RD/RDC
application manual acceleration lag section.
8. When using internally generated -5V, the internal -5V charge pump
when measured at the converter pin, can read as low as -20% (or
-4V).
9. No 180° hangup with A/C reference.
10. When in overload condition the converter will not operate to
specification and will not be damaged.
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.
Note:
The transfer function of the CT is normally trigonometric,
but in LDVT mode the transfer function is triangular (lin-
ear) and could thereby convert any linear transducer out-
put.

THEORY OF OPERATION
The RDC-19220 Series of converters are single CMOS custom
monolithic chips. They are implemented using the latest IC tech-
nology which merges precision analog circuitry with digital logic
to form a complete, high-performance tracking Resolver-to-
Digital converter. For user flexibility and convenience, the con-
verter bandwidth, dynamics and velocity scaling are externally
set with passive components.
FIGURE 1 is the functional block diagram of the RDC-19220
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 two main sections;
a converter and a digital interface. The converter front-end con-
sists of sine and cosine differential input amplifiers. These inputs
are protected to ±25 V with 2 kΩ resistors and diode clamps to
the ±5 Vdc supplies. These amplifiers feed the high accuracy
Control Transformer (CT). Its other input is the 16-bit digital angle
RB C
BW
Note: EM enables the MSBs and EL enables the LSBs.
The converter accuracy is limited by the precision of the comput-
ing elements in the CT. For enhanced accuracy, the CT in these
converters uses capacitors in precision ratios, instead of the
more conventional precision resistor ratios. Capacitors, used as
computing elements with op-amps, need to be sampled to elimi-
nate voltage drifting. Therefore, the circuits are sampled at a high
rate (67 kHz) 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
integrator (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
stabilize the loop and another lag at higher frequency is intro-
duced to reduce the gain and ripple at the carrier frequency and
above. The settings of the various error processor gains and
break frequencies are done with external resistors and capaci-
tors so that the converter loop dynamics can be easily controlled
by the user.
GENERAL SETUP CONSIDERATIONS
Note:
For detailed application and technical information see the RD/
RDC converter applications manual which is available for download from
the DDC web site @ www.ddc-web.com.
DDC has external component selection software which consid-
ers all the criteria below, and in a simple fashion, asks the key
parameters (carrier frequency, resolution, bandwidth, and track-
ing rate) to derive the external component value.
The following recommendations should be considered when
installing the RDC-19220 Series R/D converters:
1) In setting the bandwidth (BW) and Tracking Rate (TR) (select-
ing five external components), the system requirements need
to be considered. For greatest noise immunity, select the
minimum BW and TR the system will allow.
2) +5 and -5 volt operation:
Power supplies are ±5 V dc. 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.
When using a +5V and -5V supply to power the converter,
RDC-19222 pins 22, 23, 25, 26 must be no connection, and
on RDC-19224 pins 20, 17, 16, 19, must be no connection.
Also, the 10uF cap is not connected to +cap and -cap pins.
3) This converter has 2 internal ground planes, which reduce
noise to the analog input due to digital ground currents. The
resolver inputs and velocity output are referenced to AGND.
The digital outputs and inputs are referenced to GND. The
AGND and GND pins must be tied together as close to the
converter package as possible. Not shorting these pins
together as close to the converter package as possible will
cause unstable converter results.
TRANSFER FUNCTION AND BODE PLOT
The dynamic performance of the converter can be determined
from its Transfer Function Block Diagrams and its Bode Plots (open
and closed loop). These are shown in FIGURES 2, 3, and 4.
The open loop transfer function is as follows:

The components of gain coefficient are error gradient, integrator
gain and VCO gain. These can be broken down as follows:
- Error Gradient = 0.011 volts per LSB (CT + Error Amp + Demod
with 2 Vrms input)
