Inductive sensors achieve fast response times. Changes in position or speed cause immediate alterations in the induced eddy currents, which directly affect the inductance of the sensor coil. This ...

Tired of encoders that take space and need maintenance? A sensor design makes motion systems smaller and easier to use.

This sensor driver/receiver IC uses PCB-based differential sensing coils and sophisticated topology to provide high accuracy and noise immunity in harsh environments. There’s a large gap between the ...

Impact of stray magnetic fields on the electrification of motor vehicles. The role of inductive sensors to reduce risk, cost, and size in EMI-laden applications. The clean and efficient design of ...

By simultaneously reading two sets of coils through a single chip, it streamlines system design, boosts accuracy, and ...

Presenting one of the runners-up in the TI LDC1000 inductive sensor design contest. A left-handed (LH) antenna based biosensor is developed to investigate the near-field electromagnetic interaction ...

Microsemi's LX3302 improves the LX3301A with an extended temperature range to 150 degrees Celsius, and a richer set of system interfaces which include analog sine/cosine outputs, single edge nibble ...

In any application using motors for automation, there is a need to ensure accurate control of the motor. To make this possible, the position and speed of the rotor in the motor, which is usually ...

Users of inductive proximity sensors can select from a vast array of standard types to solve almost any general purpose sensing application. Unfortunately not all industrial sensing applications fall ...

Inductive sensors work in a very simple way. They are meant to detect the presence of a specific object(s) in their surroundings. They can also count all objects or only those with selected ...

Melexis has brought out a dual-input inductive sensor integrated circuit (IC). The device simultaneously processes signals from two sets of coils to compute differential or vernier angles on-chip.

Howard A. Schaevitz Technologies Inc. Pennsauken, N.J. Engineers continue to increase their use of linear-position and displacement sensors for providing real-time information to feedback-hungry PLCs ...
