As electronics replace legacy hydraulic components in brake-by-wire systems, different sensing technologies are needed for brake pedal sensing. Sensata’s Brake Pedal Force sensor for electromechanical ...

Backup sensors come standard on so many cars these days, which is awesome. Of course, that doesn’t help you at all if your car didn’t come with one. What does help you, however, is the FenSens Smart ...

This idea describes an MCU interface for a 1-Wire temperature sensor interface that offers high accuracy while using less board space. The circuit can be modified for use with any 1-Wire device. The ...

The Type LM35 temperature sensor from National Semiconductor is very popular for two reasons: it produces an output voltage that is directly proportional to the measured temperature in degrees Celsius ...

In The basics of 4-20mA current loop transmitters, I discussed the basics of 4-20 mA transmitters, a popular communication method to and from field elements in factory automation and other industrial ...

The sensor framework described in a recent journal by MIT scientists can also use other sources of energy such as vibrations or sunlight. Scientists have created a new type of sensor that does not ...

Seiko Instruments S-5851A Series is a 2-wire serial I/O digital temperature sensor. This IC measures temperature with resolution of 0.0625°C without the need for external components. Seiko Instruments ...

Researchers have developed a sensor array design technology inspired by the human auditory system. By mimicking the human ear's ability to distinguish sounds through tonotopy, this innovative sensor ...
