The signal chain path for measuring current is typically consistent from system to system. Whether current is measured in a computer, automobile or motor, the common functional blocks used are found ...

The flux-oriented control (FOC) is a commonly used technique for three-phase electric motor control application. Here, the applied voltage pattern is defined using the space vector modulation (SVM) ...

Analog Devices Inc. has introduced a FET input AFE with an integrated ADC driver designed to interface directly with current mode sensors. Analog Devices Inc. has introduced a FET input AFE with an ...

As previously mentioned, the feedback sensors include position sensors to track the rotor’s location, current sensors to measure the motor phase currents, voltage sensors to monitor the DC bus voltage ...

Renesas has brought out a sensor signal conditioner (SSC) – the ZSSC3240 – for sensor applications such as resistive pressure sensors and medical infrared thermometers features with up to 24 bits ADC ...

Meylan, France -- July 18, 2007-- Dolphin Integration is up to their charter as the most adaptive creator in Microelectronics to "Enable mixed signal Systems-on-Chip", with a quality management ...

The I/O capabilities built into most microcontrollers make it easy to measure the analog world. Say you want to build a data logger for temperature. All you need to do is get some kind of sensor that ...

Thermocouples, resistance-temperature detectors (RTDs), and thermistors make up the vast majority of sensors for measuring temperature, but you can also use a diode or transistor's P-N junction as a ...

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 ...
