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 ...

TOKYO--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Renesas Electronics Corporation (TSE: 6723), a premier supplier of advanced semiconductor solutions, today released a catalog of reference designs for its innovative inductive ...

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 ...

Closed-loop motor control generally requires sensors that accurately determine the position of the motor rotor to effectively implement communication of the excitation for the windings (an exception ...

The actuator sensor interface (AS-Interface) is a simple two-wire network that replaces traditional sensor wiring architectures. Its vendor-independent open topology connects using a single unshielded ...

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 machine’s position, it is necessary to ...

The benefits of a dual inductive rotary sensor. How inductive position sensors are designed to improve motor precision, motor control, and motor performance in industrial applications and requirements ...

In quick review, an inductive sensor generates an electromagnetic wave at a specific tuned frequency. The tuned circuit inside the sensor has a high impedance at that frequency, creating a high ...

Melexis has brought out a dual-input inductive sensor integrated circuit (IC). The device simultaneously processes signals from two sets of coils to compute differential or vernier angles on-chip.
