It’s always interesting to see how scientists and engineers have exploited—in the positive sense of the word—somewhat obscure, fundamental physics principles to create innovative sensors. For example, ...

In this installment of the back-to-basics electronic component series, in partnership with EDN, we cover current sensors. Don’t miss our discussion with Michael DiGangi, executive vice president of ...

Fluxgate current sensors have emerged as a robust technology for the measurement of both alternating and direct currents, harnessing the non-linear magnetic characteristics of ferromagnetic materials.

The battery packs in electric vehicles (EVs) are only as safe and effective as the battery-management system (BMS) watching over it. The BMS plays a pivotal role in the EV, monitoring the voltages in ...

Why a better current sensor for EVs is advantageous. How a diamond-based quantum sensor may be suitable. Test results for this sensor. Measuring a physical attribute such as voltage or current with ...
