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 ...

This file type includes high-resolution graphics and schematics when applicable. In the seemingly endless quest for higher motor performance and improved system cost efficiencies, motor manufacturers ...

They are installed not only in electrical linear motors, but also in pneumatic, hydraulic, ball-screw or power-grip belt drives and wherever high-accuracy, dynamic positioning tasks must be performed.

Microchip Technology Inc. has extended its family of inductive position sensors into the electric-vehicle (EV) motor control market, with the launch of the LX34070 IC. Designed for EV motor control ...

The camshaft position sensor gathers information about the vehicle’s camshaft speed and sends it to the vehicle’s engine control module (ECM). The camshaft position sensor gathers information about ...

The output options and user adjustability of analog sensors make them the original plug-and-play devices, and their simplicity frees control engineers to develop control algorithms without worrying ...

The benefits of a dual inductive rotary sensor. How inductive position sensors are designed to improve motor precision, motor control, and motor performance in industrial applications and requirements ...

The controllers that drive modern motor-powered designs must be set up with accurate motion profiles — including position, velocity, and time targets. However, developing a realistic motion profile ...

In some categories of motor drive applications, users have little or no tolerance for unpredictable, uneven, or irregular motor behavior. While this certainly cannot be said of all motor-driven ...

CARS.COM — Most car owners probably don’t know that their vehicle has a crankshaft position sensor until the engine dies, won’t start or starts running poorly. Then when the car is in the auto repair ...

Novotechnik introduces the TX2 Series of linear position sensors. This family of rod-style sensors is rated at IP 67 to protect from dirt, dust and humidity. TX2 Series sensors are available from ...
