Recently, I’ve been working on a solar off-grid monitoring system. In the system are a few split-core Hall effect sensors to monitor DC current in the solar panel current, the battery charge current, ...

With increasing concerns about the global demand for energy and the overall expansion of environmental awareness, designers for power electronics applications are under constant pressure to improve ...

Current sensing is on a trajectory to intersect with the global high-voltage trend of robust, high-performing systems. Discover the tradeoffs between isolated shunt-based, closed-loop Hall-effect, and ...

Star sensor calibration is a critical aspect in ensuring the accurate operation of spacecraft navigation systems. High-precision star sensors are integral to attitude determination, requiring ...

The technique is called high-side current sensing. However, measurements at that location are fraught with problems. Of primary concern is that the measurement is at main line voltage, a problem if ...

CMOS temperature sensors have emerged as an indispensable technology for thermal monitoring in modern integrated circuits. Leveraging complementary metal–oxide–semiconductor technology, these sensors ...

Sensors are critical components of the modern vehicle. They are the eyes of a car, enabling everything from existing ADAS (Advanced Driver-Assistance Systems) features such as automated braking and ...

THERE is no better way to ruin a perfectly good day than to make a mistake in the use of your air monitoring instrumentation. Industrial hygienists; military, industrial and public-sector hazmat teams ...

Compliance with Good Distribution Practice (GDP) guidelines for transport of pharmaceutical and biomedical products is improved with Carrier Transicold’s new temperature sensor calibration capability ...

Smartphones rely on multiple sensors—such as the accelerometer, gyroscope, compass, and proximity sensor—to power everyday features. From screen rotation and navigation apps to motion tracking and ...
