Advanced current sensing for next-gen electronics
Contactless current sensing provides the fast response that state-of-the-art power circuits depend on. Michael DiGangi • ACEINNA The next generation of electronic products will be more powerful and flexible than ever. The advanced circuitry to drive them needs intelligent power management to realize the desired performance. Application spaces like robotics and micro-electromechanical systems (MEMS) rely […]
All-metal current-sense chip resistors feature 1-W power rating
IoT and Robotics require high efficiency and small size to maximize functionality. For current sensing, this means high power in small case sizes and low resistance values. The CSSH0805 from Stackpole is an all-metal chip resistor with a 1W power rating, resistance values down to 0.5 milliohms, and TCR ranging from 50 ppm to 100 […]
Multi-hall-array sensor features high-precision current sensing
TDK Corporation expands its Micronas Hall-effect sensor portfolio with the CUR 4000 sensor. The sensor, developed for highly accurate current measurements in automotive and industrial applications, offers non-intrusive, galvanic isolated contactless current sensing. These features will contribute to the future of high-voltage systems of hybrid and electric vehicles (EV). The product is suited for DC […]
