Hello again, Thanks for pointing out the chip, it could be quite useful, I will consider it when (if) I start thinking about making resolver modules, however, I don't like the $13/100 price.. It is very typical of the modern implementations of converting a resolver to digital counts (which I personally don't much care for), afterall a resolver was intended as an analog position sensor, now days we have things like hall, CCD, and capacitive sensors, other than a few specific cases, there is not too much point in using a resolver unless it is a refit of existing equipment IMHO. ;)
