Six automotive current sensors designed to enhance electric and hybrid vehicle performance, efficiency, and functional safety ...

Allegro MicroSystems Inc. has introduced the ACS704 family of Hall-effect magnetic field sensors in SOIC8 packaging, with the current path integrated into the package for better sensitivity and ...

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 ...

The newest current sensor family from Allegro MicroSystems, Inc., the ACS704, is the first SOIC8-packaged Hall-effect current sensor with the current path integrated into the package for greater ...

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) ...

Littelfuse has introduced a new range of automotive-qualified current sensors aimed at improving the performance, efficiency, ...

If you read about Hall effect sensors — the usual way to detect and measure magnetic fields these days — it sounds ...

High-voltage systems including electric vehicles, industrial robots, communications infrastructure equipment, and renewable-energy installations often require accurate current measurements. You can ...

Recently, [Solder Hub] put together a brief video that demonstrates the basics of a Hall Effect sensor — in this case, one salvaged from an old CPU fan. Two LEDs, a 100 ohm resistor, and a 3.7 volt ...

Motor control circuits in appliances including refrigerators, washing machines and air conditioners, need to operate more efficiently, reliably and safely while meeting cost requirements. With energy ...

Miri is a creative writer with a passion for gaming and animation. She started gaming way back in 1994 on the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis and has been a console gamer ever since. She's currently a ...

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 ...
