Hi Jon,
Those are hot chips... don't know how many resolvers there are out
that will handle the reference freq tho ... but not many apps will
push the rps spec. ;-)

complex and expensive.
And could now be put in one IC.
Ahhh, but they are still big bucks... somebody was selling surplus
R/D chips on ebay a couple months ago for $350/each.
They used to be expensive. But, Analog Devices recently came
out with the next generation of this, the AD2S1200, $18 in
single quantity from Digi-Key. It not only generates absolute
position, but it puts out a simulated quadrature signal.
