Sensors are energy conversion devices. Sensors or transducers convert the physical world of light, pressure, temperature, flow, level, acceleration, force, etc. to electrical signals but generally ...

The sensitivity of the proximity sensor circuit can be adjusted with P1 for the desired “distance”. One of its obvious uses is to open a door automatically. For this the sensor must be placed on the ...

Capacitive sensor technology has evolved markedly over recent years, underpinned by advancements in integrated circuit design and novel measurement approaches. These sensors function by detecting ...

A team of researchers have developed the world's thinnest and lightest magnetic sensor matrix sheet system that visualizes the two-dimensional distribution of magnetism on various surfaces, with a ...

This dual-slope temperature sensor combines one negative-sloped and one positive-sloped temp sensor to create a V-shaped output, which can be used to compensate for a dual-temperature-coefficient ...

Printers are becoming more and more versatile. Now they can even print sensors and electronic components on 2D and 3D substrates. A new, robot-assisted production line allows the process to be ...

A bridge type sensor uses four matched resistive elements to create a balanced differential circuit. The bridge can be a combination of discrete resistors and resistive sensors for quarter, half and ...

Here’s your useful and beautiful circuit for the day — [New Pew]’s vibration sensor takes manual control of the flip-flop inside a 555 timer and lights an LED in response. Use it to detect those ...
