Most Hall-effect and magnetoresistive (MR) sensors are fabricated on 200mm (8-inch) wafers using CMOS or BiCMOS processes.

The types of magnetic sensors that are currently available. How the magnetic sensors work. Applications for the different magnetic sensors. Position sensors enable a variety of functions and controls ...

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 ...

Melexis has cone up with Arcminaxis – a magnetic technology for affordable, high-precision position sensing in robotic joints. The MLX90384, the first product incorporating Arcminaxis, reduces the ...

It is often advantageous to have a single sensor monitor more than one feedback parameter. This is now possible in the case of a linear-position sensor that can track as many as 20 moving positions ...

• A single linear sensor monitors 20 positions. • Time to read 20 positions matches that of a single position. • Strokes over 5,000 mm, accuracy of ±20 μm, and resolutions of 1 μm. It is often ...
