Abstract: A computer-based fully customizable compliance training system for companies and organizations that includes personalized training modules incorporating employee information within the training module. The system provides authorized company representatives the ability to edit and/or augment the compliance training content from a web browser according to the company's specific needs. Online or off-line, user-friendly training is provided in an educational and enjoyable format. With this system, an organization's representative(s) may create versions of the training modules specifically for employees of that organization. A further advantage is a cost-effective training program that is significantly less expensive than printed manuals, videos, CD-ROMs, etc.

Abstract: Multiple input channels, containing servo angle data, undergo analog multiplexing by a single non-linear ladder and switch network which generates a steering voltage on a channel-by-channel basis. The steering voltage undergoes demodulation and digitization for feedback to the multiplexed non-linear network thereby emulating a Type II servo loop. The digitized angle information is also made available as tracking converter outputs.

Abstract: An improved ladder network for use in a converter utilizing a single ladder network with single pole double throw switches to simultaneously implement nonlinear sine and cosine functions.

Abstract: A dual speed resolver to digital conversion system with coarse and fine interlocking. The reference frequency is utilized to drive a bang-bang servo loop under priority control of the coarse mathetics when it is necessary to pass control to the coarse loop.

Abstract: A comparator network in a successive approximation synchro-to-digital converter uses two comparators to determine the quadrant of the synchro angle and then uses one of these comparators as a steering voltage comparator to determine the less significant bits of the synchro angle. Fractions of the sine and cosine analog inputs are cross-coupled to the comparators to provide inherent quantization error centering.

Abstract: An improved input system for isolating resolver or synchro outputs from inputs to demodulators or analog-to-digital converters uses current transformers rather than voltage transformers. The resistances of resistors connected in series with the primary windings of the isolation transformers are adjusted to standardize the input currents of the transformers.

Abstract: In order to provide high accuracy shaft angle to linear DC voltage conversion using low accuracy devices, a linear synchro is excited by a 2.5 KHZ square wave which is power buffered, the square wave also used to synchronously demodulate the output of the wound component by sampling and a demodulated voltage then filtered and scaled to the required levels using commonly available operational amplifiers.

Abstract: An improved synchro to digital tracking converter which utilizes an approximation to generate information octally and uses digital complementing to generate information over the balance of the quadrant is implemented using a single ladder network to provide a system having fewer components and yet a higher intrinsic accuracy.

Abstract: In a digital to synchro/resolver converter which has an intrinsic transformation ratio variation with respect to input angle greater than desired in a given application, the intrinsic variation is corrected by applying a correction to the reference voltage used in carrying out the digital to synchro conversion.

Abstract: A digital to analog resolver converter uses a digital to analog converter to convert a part of the digital input to a corresponding analog angle value. This analog angle value is applied to sine and cosine function generators which use the equations of chords to approximate the value of the sine and cosine functions in one octant. Bits of the digital input are used to select slope values from the chord equations for approximating the sine and cosine of the analog angle value. The digital to analog resolver converter uses the minimum number of precision resistors to generate the sine and cosine slope and intercept values for the equations of a given number of approximating chords.
