How a wireless stent can be used for an implanted sensor and inductive link. How the wireless stent was fabricated and used. How the stent’s performance was evaluated. There are multiple options for ...

The Melexis MLX90514 inductive sensor delivers high-precision position sensing, while reducing system complexity.

Inductive sensors are non-contact proximity sensors that detect ferrous targets, ideally ones made of mild steel thicker than one millimeter. They consist of four major components: a ferrite core with ...

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 ...

The material and size (also the thickness) of the target is an important factor for inductive proximity sensors. Generally there are two types of target materials for inductive sensors; ferrous and ...

In layman’s terms, a wire generates a voltage as it moves through a magnetic field. The amount of voltage generated depends on the strength of the magnetic field, the length of the wire in the field, ...

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 ...

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.

DC/DC converters for field sensor transmitters have distinctive requirements, such as high efficiency, wide input voltage range (wide VIN), small size, low noise, and low overall bill-of-materials ...
