It seems like engineering 101, but do you actually remember the specific differences between inductive proximity, inductive displacement, and eddy-current sensors? I asked a few friends and everyone ...

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 ...

Editor’s Notes: In this installment of the back-to-basics electronic components series, in partnership with EDN, Electronic Products covers current sensors. Don’t miss our discussion with Michael ...

The GFS series of ground fault sensors monitors all current-carrying conductors in grounded single and three-phase delta or wye systems. Available in fixed-core models, the GFS series features ...

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 Orro Switch is expensive, but it offers some nifty tricks that put it near the top of the market. With options like Noon and Brilliant now available, high-end lighting has landed squarely not just ...

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 ...

From roller coasters and farm equipment to discrete and batch manufacturing, inductive sensors enable precise metal detection ...
