Scanning element and inductive position measuring device therewith

An inductive position measuring device, comprising:

• a first scale element;
• a second scale element;
• and
• a scanning element including a multilayer circuit board, the circuit board including a first detector unit, a second detector unit, a first shielding layer, a second shielding layer, and a geomatical center plane located between the detector units and the shielding layers, the first detector unit including a first excitation track and a first receiver track, the second detector unit including a second excitation track and a second receiver track;
• wherein the first detector unit is arranged in a first layer and in a second layer, and the second detector unit is arranged in a third layer and in a fourth layer;
• wherein a first straight line passes through both the first detector unit and the first shielding layer but does not pass through the second shielding layer, and starting from the first detector unit, the first shielding layer is located beyond the center plane;
• wherein a second straight line passes through both the second detector unit and the second shielding layer but does not pass through the first shielding layer, and starting from the second detector unit, the second shielding layer is located beyond the center plane;
• wherein the first straight line and the second straight line are orthogonal with respect to the center plane;
• and
• wherein the scale elements are arranged in a third direction that is orthogonal to the center plane and are spaced apart on both sides of the circuit board.
