Position sensor system

A position sensor system comprising:

• an inductive position;
• at least two receiver coil sets;
• at least one transmitter coil;
• and
• a signal conditioning processor;
• wherein in each receiver coil set comprises at least two separate receiver coils,
• wherein the signal conditioning processor is included in a single integrated circuit and has a common output for providing a combined output signal information for all receiver coil sets respectively all receiver channels of the signal conditioning processor, and in that the at least two receiver coil sets, the at least one transmitter coil and the single integrated circuit including the signal conditioning processor are located on a single printed circuit board,
• wherein the signal conditioning processor comprises a separate receiver channel for each receiver coil set or a shared receiver channel and a multiplexer for multiplexing the at least two receiver coil sets sequentially to the shared receiver channel, and wherein each receiver channel comprises a radio-frequency signal receiver and processor, an analog-to-digital converter and a digital signal processor, and
• wherein the signal conditioning processor comprises an oscillator for generating a radio-frequency signal for the at least one transmitter coil, and by comprising a shared transmitter coil for the at least two receiver coil sets, which is connected to the oscillator of the signal conditioning processor or by comprising separate transmitter coils for the at least two receiver coil sets, wherein the separate transmitter coils are connected in series or parallel to the oscillator of the signal conditioning processor.
