Check out our Sensors Converge 2023 coverage. Along with temperature, pressure is one of the most widely measured physical variables. And like temperature, it has several regions: low pressure for ...

This brief tutorial explains how the “Wiegand effect” can be used as a reliable, low-cost, energy-harvesting system to power ...

Some photoelectric sensors, ultrasonic sensors, and rotary encoders generate a digital dc output called a push-pull signal. The external environment activates the sensor, which, in turn, closes a ...

No off-the-shelf pretrimmed sensor right for your job? No problem; use an untrimmed unit and customize it with a signal conditioner based on two or three op amps. These analyses show you why the ...

You will learn about how electric vehicles work differently from gasoline or diesel fuel powered vehicles and the major types of electric vehicles. We then explain the unique components of full ...

Hall-effect switches and instrumentation-grade sensors have become more commonplace in industrial applications, with a wide range of Hall-effect devices now packaged for designers of products and ...

Tachometers directly report angular speed. Some are simple processors that merely digest output from an external sensor or encoder; others are integrated units that combine an encoder or sensor and a ...
