This is the current incarnation of a digital to synchro interface. It is intended for use with simple synchro receiver style gauges, as opposed to more complex instruments incorporating servo loops.</span>

It does not require a 400Hz power source. It operates at about 40% of the spec synchro voltages which seems to work just fine. I just received some transformers that might be useful if higher voltages are needed or if transformer isolation is desired. It can be operated at frequencies below 400Hz which should increase synchro torque.</span>
