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) ...

As power electronics switching techniques advance, there is an increased need to accurately measure current for feedback control and system monitoring. There are several methods to achieve this, and ...

Most common types of EV current sensors. Some pros and cons of current sensing methods. Tradeoffs between different types of current sensing. Multiple points within an electric vehicle (EV) or hybrid ...

Current sensing is used to perform two essential circuit functions. First, it is used to measure “how much” current is flowing in a circuit, which may be used to make decisions about turning off ...

This invention maps changes in magnetic field strength to changes in actuator shape without seeing noise from the actuator or reducing performance. The field of soft robotics has been rapidly gaining ...

The ACS37200 isolated current sensor from Allegro MicroSystems is a galvanically isolated current-sensing IC designed for ...

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 ...

Researchers have successfully developed a rapid and scalable evaporation-induced method to create continuous, uniform thin films of mesoporous amorphous metal-organic frameworks (aMOFs). The research ...

The MC73110 motor-control IC features an onchip a/d converter that digitizes analog current feedback, and provides multiple current sensing methods to maximize motor performance. Features of the unit ...
