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 ...

As power electronics switching techniques advance, there is an increased need to accurately measure current for feedback control and system monitoring. There are several methods to achieve this, and ...

Allegro MicroSystems today announced three ICs: two analogue current sensors and a motor driver for fans. The first current sensor, ACS37630, is designed to be sat on top of a bus bar and partly ...

Open-loop current sensors have a definite price advantage over closed-loop counterparts. While you can use them in drive applications where torque accuracy isn't demanding — such as pump and fan ...

The types of magnetic sensors that are currently available. How the magnetic sensors work. Applications for the different magnetic sensors. Position sensors enable a variety of functions and controls ...
