Renesas has developed an inductive position sensor (IPS) technology that delivers a resolution of up to 19 bits and accuracy of up to 14 bits. The magnet-free, dual-coil technology can replace ...

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 ...

Melexis introduces the MLX90514, a dual-input inductive sensor IC that simultaneously processes signals from two sets of coils to compute differential or vernier angles on-chip. The inductive sensor ...

Renesas has invented a non-contact industrial rotary inductive position sensor that works up to 600,000rpm and has a propagation delay less than 2μs. This image is part one of the snippets of ...

[Mark Smith] must really, really like his coffee, at least judging by how much effort he’s put into tricking out his espresso machine. Directly adjacent to the float track on the outside of the tank ...

Rectangular compact inductive-proximity DC sensors from APS offer top or front sensing capabilities at ranges of 2.5 mm and 4 mm. The sensors come in two- or three-wire configurations. The ...

Traffic lights might seem like they let cars stop or go randomly, but that's not always the case. Many of them use special ...

No audio available for this content. Controlling an earthmoving machine to perform a task requires knowing exactly where its bucket or blade contacts the dirt. Therefore, in addition to knowing the ...

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 ...

The rotary inductive sensors utilize resistance inductive capacitance (RLC) measuring technology, rather than a traditional magnetic positioning element—delivering complete immunity to EMC ...
