I had intended to look at the latest in sensor fusion algorithms this week, but the purchase of Linear Technology by Analog Devices is so logical (ironic, for two analog companies) that it’s hard to ...

The Allegro A1308 and A1309 are linear hall-effect sensor ICs with high accuracy and comes in small package sizes. They are temperature-stable operating across and extended temperature range of –40°C ...

An example is the sensing of a rotary cam position. The oblong shape of the cam dictates use of a sensor able to detect different shapes and sizes. A simple prox sensor merely detects the presence or ...

It can also measure a single magnet marker position and velocity. The speed range is 25 mm/sec to 10 m/sec with speed-sensing resolution reduced to 0.1 mm/sec. These analog sensors can be factory or ...

Adding “intelligence” to measurement systems has become commonplace because 8-bit microcontrollers are inexpensive and widely available, and they can be programmed in many of today’s popular ...

Melexis has brought out a linear Hall-effect sensor that draws less than 5 µA at 100 Hz and integrates digital filters for enhanced performance. Its flexible architecture is available in multiple ...

They are installed not only in electrical linear motors, but also in pneumatic, hydraulic, ball-screw or power-grip belt drives and wherever high-accuracy, dynamic positioning tasks must be performed.

Alliance Sensors Group is pleased to announce the MR Series of Linear Position Sensors for use in measuring the ram position of hydraulic and pneumatic cylinders. The MR Series is designed to be a ...

NORWOOD, Mass. & MILPITAS, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Analog Devices, Inc. (NASDAQ: ADI) (“Analog Devices”) and Linear Technology Corporation (NASDAQ: LLTC ...

Most electronic engineers know that a transistor’s base-emitter voltage (V BE) has a temperature coefficient (TC) of about -2 mV/°C. However, for precision temperature sensors, “about” isn’t good ...
