Lion Precision uses an excitation frequency of 1MHz compared to a more typical 10kHz-15kHz. This higher excitation frequency gives Lion Precision a standard bandwidth of 20kHz compared to an industry average of less than 5kHz. Bandwidth is also affected by the geometry of the probe. Bandwidth tends to drop as the sensor size decreases. Fast responding outputs maximize phase margin when used in servo-control feedback systems.
DMT drivers provide selectable bandwidth for maximizing resolution or response time.
Resolution is defined as the smallest reliable measurement that a system can make. The resolution of a measurement system must be better than the final accuracy the measurement requires. If you need to know a measurement to within 0.000,002 inches, then the resolution of the measurement system must be better than 0.000,002 inches. The primary determining factor of resolution is electrical noise. Electrical noise appears in the output voltage causing small instantaneous errors in the output.
