As systems extend and expand the exploitation of the latest power semiconductors (IGBTs, MCTs, etc.) that manifest the very relentless advance in power output limits, a prerequisite (and parallel) ...

This invention maps changes in magnetic field strength to changes in actuator shape without seeing noise from the actuator or reducing performance. The field of soft robotics has been rapidly gaining ...

Current sensing technologies and magnetic sensors have evolved remarkably to address the demand for accurate, real‐time monitoring in power distribution networks and industrial applications.

Most common types of EV current sensors. Some pros and cons of current sensing methods. Tradeoffs between different types of current sensing. Multiple points within an electric vehicle (EV) or hybrid ...

Current sensing is used to perform two essential circuit functions. First, it is used to measure “how much” current is flowing in a circuit, which may be used to make decisions about turning off ...

Two of the top considerations in data center and server power-supply unit (PSU) designs are power density and efficiency. Meeting the strictest efficiency standard—80 Plus Titanium—is now a minimum ...

The MC73110 motor-control IC features an onchip a/d converter that digitizes analog current feedback, and provides multiple current sensing methods to maximize motor performance. Features of the unit ...

Clamp sensors are often found in robotic environments like those in automotive assembly. Robotic arms manipulate parts, either welding pieces together or holding them in place until other actions are ...
