All sensors are analog in nature, even an on/off switch, but how they work and how to get accurate information with the ...

Sometimes standard inductive proximity sensors simply don't cut it. An example is the sensing of a rotary cam position. The oblong shape of the cam dictates use of a sensor able to detect different ...

The AccuProx analog proximity sensor detects objects up to 25 mm away, four times the range of shielded and unshielded tubular analog sensors without compromising output accuracy. Typical applications ...

Sharp GP2D12 and 2Y0A02 infrared rangers output a voltage proportionate to the distance of an object from the sensor. The GPD12 senses objects at a distance of 10-80cm, while the 2Y0A02 has twice the ...

From AutomationDirect to Pepperl+Fuchs, explore sensing and machine safety products from top automation suppliers.

With the new ODS 110/HT 110 and HRT 25B L distance sensors, Leuze electronic is expanding its series of distance sensors and offers customers an array of different designs with extra large operating ...

CHANDLER, Ariz., April 23, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Devices designed for capturing rapidly changing analog signals must respond quickly while consuming minimal power, especially in battery-operated ...

IR (infrared)-proximity sensors can sense the presence of an object, its distance from a reference, or both. Applications include speed detection, sensing of the hand in automatic faucets, automatic ...

Two tiny ICs and a few passive components can yield a capacitive proximity sensor with excellent sensitivity and extremely fast response time. The circuit’s operation leverages the pulse-front-edge ...
