Inductive sensor having one or more modular circuit boards
Abstract:
An inductive sensor includes a first circuit board having a sensor element configurable in a plurality of different coil configurations. The sensor element includes a transmit coil and a plurality of receive coils. The first circuit board includes interconnect points positioned at a same location on the first circuit board for each of the plurality of different coil configurations. The inductive sensor includes a second circuit board spaced apart from the first circuit board along the axial direction. The second circuit board includes processing circuitry associated with the sensor element and configurable in a plurality of different configurations. The second circuit board includes interconnect points positioned at a same location on the second circuit board for each of the configurations of the processing circuitry. Furthermore, each interconnect point on the second circuit board is aligned with a corresponding interconnect point on the first circuit board along circumferential and radial directions.
