Abstract:
An apparatus for inductive linear-position sensing is disclosed. An apparatus may include a support structure and an electrically conductive material defining a continuous path for electrical current to flow between a first location and a second location. The continuous path may include: a first path portion defining a first spiraling path for the electrical current to flow in a clockwise direction around a first axis; a second path portion laterally spaced from the first path portion and defining a second spiraling path for the electrical current to flow in a counter-clockwise direction around a second axis; a first coupling portion coupling an inner portion of the first path portion to an inner portion of the second path portion; and a second coupling portion coupling an outer portion of the second path portion to an outer portion of the first path portion. Related systems, devices, and methods are also disclosed.
