Drawing on its expertise from 10 years in magnetic sensing and 20 years in optical sensing, Wachendorff Automation has developed a family of redundant incremental encoders that incorporate both types of sensing in a single encoder. […]
Ongoing demand for higher performance in industrial systems is driving the need for more precise current measurement, in addition to reliable operation, which often comes with the cost of increased board space or design complexity. In response, TI has developed what it says is the industry’s first zero-drift Hall-effect current sensor, enabling engineers to design systems that will provide consistent performance and diagnostics over a longer device lifetime, keeping its solution size compact without increasing design time. […]
In today’s world where devices and equipment are being designed smaller and smarter and for applications requiring precise rotary and linear measurement, there is an increased demand for digitization and miniaturization in sensors. Designed to meet the growing need for sensors with a digital signal output and miniature footprint, TE Connectivity has developed a new magnetic encoder IC, the KMA36. […]
TDK Corporation is expanding its tunnel-magnetoresistance (TMR) angle sensing portfolio with the addition of a model that features full redundancy while it simultaneously measures speed, direction and motor position. The redundancy features satisfy newer, more stringent automotive safety requirements. […]
The satellite constellation market is growing rapidly, creating new requirements for magnetometry to guide the clusters of small satellites being launched into orbit for earth observation and communications networks. Size, economy, reliability and, of course, precise accuracy are all key factors for constellation satellites. […]
As part of the many sensor technologies now widely employed in smart farming, where sophisticated monitoring and control is now universally applied to optimize crop production, mobile agricultural machinery manufacturers are increasingly utilizing precision sensors as part of the equipment and systems they produce to till, seed and harvest crops. Magnetic sensors are fielding many of the challenges. […]
In June, Paragraf embarked on a working partnership with the Magnetic Measurement section at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research, with both parties set to demonstrate how new opportunities for magnetic measurements are opened up through the unique properties of its graphene sensor, particularly its negligible planar Hall effect.
