Inductive linear position sensors are non-contact devices that measure a target object’s distance and movement. Using similar means, inductive proximity switches determine whether the object has ...

2-Wire 2-Wire DC circuitry typically includes a diode bridge in series with the sensor, allowing functionality either as NPN or PNP in a DC circuit. Acceptable values of leakage current must be ...

A new cloud-based tool transforms inductive coil design with real-time simulations, reducing costs and material waste.

These connect to an LX3302A inductive sensor IC, which reads the position of the copper slug inside the float. That simplifies the process greatly; [Mark] goes into great detail about the design ...

For anyone unfamiliar with the original project, the circuit detected a vehicle via an inductive loop and was able to perform a task like opening a gate. It now has two independent channels which ...

Insights into the use of built-in accelerometers and additional sensors in encoders to enable predictive maintenance and ...
