Featuring DC to 5-MHz bandwidth, Allegro MicroSystems' galvanically isolated, high-accuracy magnetic current-sensor IC with zero current reference (ACS37030), and overcurrent fault with internal pull ...

Two of the most widely used approaches for current sensing have shortcomings that limit their use in highly integrated power electronics applications. Hall-effect current sensors use a flux ...

When tasked with a current sensing requirement, designers typically look first to using dedicated resistors designed for this task. Occasionally though there is the temptation to consider sensing ...

Can current-sensor ICs win out against the shunt resistor and other passive components? Check out some of the latest offerings on the market in this Products of the Week gallery. For any electronic ...

Advanced sensor technology provides accurate information for the monitoring and controls of the power system. In recent years, with the development of power electronics devices, the distributed power ...

One of the joys of writing for Hackaday comes in learning new things which even after a long engineering background haven’t yet come your way. So it is with the Rogowski coil, an AC current sensing ...

Electrochemical aptamer-based sensors are typically deployed as individual, passive, surface-functionalized electrodes, but they exhibit limited sensitivity especially when the area of the electrode ...

Meeting the increasingly important but complex needs of the energy industry requires not only excellent design and engineering, but also advanced sensor capabilities that extend beyond the limits of ...

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 ...
