Abstract From the Canadian patent

A sine wave generator which utilizes a PROM for storing a predetermined bit pattern which is converted to a corresponding pulse waveform generated in response to a very accurate and stable clock pulse. The pulse waveform is shifted to a very exacting voltage level and is filtered by a band-pass filter to derive the desired fundamental frequency sine wave. The amplitude and frequency stable sine wave may be utilized in linear variable differential transformer (LVDT) apparatus for measuring the position of a controlled object such as a turbine valve. The arrangement may also be utilized for generating additional sine waves bearing some predetermined phase relationship with respect to one …
