It’s always interesting to see how scientists and engineers have exploited—in the positive sense of the word—somewhat obscure, fundamental physics principles to create innovative sensors. For example, ...

In this installment of the back-to-basics electronic component series, in partnership with EDN, we cover current sensors. Don’t miss our discussion with Michael DiGangi, executive vice president of ...

Fluxgate current sensors have emerged as a robust technology for the measurement of both alternating and direct currents, harnessing the non-linear magnetic characteristics of ferromagnetic materials.

Usually, when you need to sense something in a project, the answers are straightforward. Want to sense air temperature? There’s a sensor for that. Particulate content in the air? There’s a sensor for ...

More efficient, smaller, and lighter traction inverters for EVs can be created by integrating current sensors directly into SiC-based power modules. Silicon Austria Labs (SAL), a power semiconductor ...

The battery packs in electric vehicles (EVs) are only as safe and effective as the battery-management system (BMS) watching over it. The BMS plays a pivotal role in the EV, monitoring the voltages in ...
