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 ...

A guide for engineers balancing performance, reliability, and manufacturability across today’s smart systems By Barry Brents, ...

Nowadays, the majority of systems have a microcontroller that executes an application program to implement functionality. This controller is also frequently used to provide safety-relevant ...

Tick tracer. Glow meter. Sniffer. They go by many names, but capacitive voltage sensors are all designed to do one thing: detect the presence of voltage in a wire or piece of equipment without ...

In today's consumer applications, sensors are increasingly being used to validate the user prior to accessing the equipment. For example, the increased popularity of fingerprint authentication sensors ...

Designed for one specific purpose—fault protection and detection—the ADG7421F switch targets applications ranging from control systems to avionics. Many times, it’s the small, tightly focused ...

Genetically encoded voltage sensors are coming of age, but their use still poses challenges that must be addressed from multiple angles. Neurons process information with the help of electrical signals ...
