Position Sensors play an important role in our daily lives. A position sensor, as the name indicates, provides feedback on the position of the measurand by detecting the presence/absence of an object ...

The ICB Series features a high performance potting material that is made from recycled corn by-product, which features a higher resistance to mechanical stress, thus providing increased reliability, ...

A common application seen throughout the industrial and commercial sectors is proximity sensing—detecting when some object is physically close to a sensor. A variety of processes can be implemented ...

Last week Belgian fabless chip company Melexis announced a unique inductive sensing IC that includes a tiny transformer, drive circuit and sense circuit, so Electronics Weekly decided to have a closer ...

Resistance welding is known to create electromagnetic interference at levels high enough to falsely trigger inductive proximity sensors. Sensor manufacturers use three common methods to combat this ...

Non-contact proximity sensors can improve the ruggedness of manufacturing operations, such as metal component assembly, by replacing delicate mechanical switches. Sensor selection for these ...

[mircemk] shows how to create a simple non-contact proximity sensor using little more than an Arduino Nano board, and a convenient software library intended to measure the value of capacitors. The ...

Allen-Bradley Bulletin 871TS inductive proximity sensors are designed to address the most demanding applications in the food and beverage industry. These sensors are designed to withstand ...

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 ...

The Apple iPhone brought the benefits of integrated multi-sensor technology to the masses, and while the application of sensors and their associated algorithms has multiplied and changed the world ...
