Equipped with multi-Hall sensor encoder technology, new Posiwire sensors from ASM Automation Sensorik Messtechnik combine linear position determination and inclination measurement into a single system. They can be applied to a number of situations where […]
Diodes has introduced three new Hall-effect switches which operate from a low supply voltage and at extremely low quiescent current to extend battery lifetime in mobile and portable devices. They can detect the open-closed status […]
Asahi Kasei Microdevices (AKM) cares a lot about how design engineers choose to sense current, especially using magnetic sensing based upon Hall elements such as with its line of Currentier sensors, whose structure is depicted above. In explaining its technology, AKM has come up with a helpful tutorial on the fundamental types of current sensors and their distinctive characteristics. Some of the key points are highlighted in this article while the complete presentation is available on the company’s website. […]
As automobiles increase in electrification and digitalization, from electric drive trains to immersive infotainment systems in the cockpit, Chinese semiconductor company Novosense is stepping forward with the development of new chip solutions including magnetic current […]
Whenever position encoders have to deal with unfavorable environments in which dust, oil and moisture can lead to contamination, the most robust sensing principle is required. Magnetic Hall encoders are a common cost effective and […]
A new magnetic position sensor from Infineon Technologies can help design engineers whose applications require accurate detection when direction may be rapidly changing. The device combines the company’s technologies in magnetic position sensing and linearized […]
Asahi Kasei Microdevices Corporation (AKM) has started mass production of its CZ39 series of current sensors for automotive applications that feature a compound Hall element, package and circuit technologies to realize high-speed response, low heat generation and noise-proof properties sought by design engineers. Compatible with SiC/GaN power devices, they can contribute to the miniaturization of on-board chargers and DC/DC converters that are installed in automobiles. The high-speed response also makes them suitable for use as electronic fuses. […]
