TI LDC1000 Evaluation Module

Inductive sensing is a contactless, magnet-free sensing technology that can measure the position, motion, or composition of a metal or conductive target as well as detect the compression, extension, or twist of a spring.

The LDC1000 enables inductive sensing, by utilizing coils and springs as inductive sensors to deliver better performance, better reliability, and greater flexibility than existing sensing solutions – at lower system cost and power.

Key advantages of LDC technology

Higher resolution: Enables sub-micron resolution in position-sensing applications with 16-bit resonance impedance and 24-bit inductance values
Better reliability: Offers contactless sensing that is immune to nonconductive contaminants such as dirt and dust
Greater flexibility: Allows the sensor to be located remotely from the electronics, where PCBs cannot be placed
Lower system cost: Uses low-cost sensors and targets – no magnets required
Limitless possibilities: Supports pressed foil or conductive ink targets, offering endless opportunities for creative and innovative system design
Lower system power: Consumes less than 8.5 mW during standard operation and less than 1.25 mW in standby mode

I'm pleased to say the kits have shipped and the Testers have been sent their tracking numbers. Thank you.

Many thanks to all those who applied; as ever, the quality of applications presented us with a difficult choice. However, we have selected the following 4 testers:
Shannon Mackey
Warren Wagener
Daniel Williamson
James Wood
Congratulations to our successful testers; those who weren't selected this time around, I urge to apply for future RoadTests. Thanks.

We updated the road test binary last night, and there is a problem with it that is causing applications to not display. It is a pure display problem, your application is still safe (you can see it here), and you do not need to reapply.

We've identified the problem and will be putting in a fix very soon!

Dudley The enrollment list shows zero enrollments. Do we need to sign up again?!
