At Sensors Expo 2019, Sergey Komarov, a field application engineer for Sensors and Specialist Components at TT Electronics discusses the capabilities of his company’s OPB9000, a programmable surface mount device (SMD) reflective optical sensor. The sensor does not require additional peripheral circuitry such as op-amps, data converters or comparators, since all analog signal conditioning is […]
Sense Torque – Save Fuel and More
Carmakers investigate and implement many technologies to save fuel. Rather than have a hydraulic, belt-driven power steering system, electronic power steering systems with a torque sensor measure the resistance and provided the appropriate amount of assistance and save fuel – as much as 5% reduced fuel consumption. Based on Hall Effect technology, TT electronics SX-4428 […]
10 Gigabit Ethernet and USB connectors conform to industrial and military standards
The mil spec high speed RJ45 and USB connector systems incorporate ABAC (MILDTL-38999 series III) or AB05 (MIL-DTL-26482) derived metal shells with full 360 degree EMC and mechanical protection. These connectors provide high reliability through environmental sealing, enhanced mechanical protection and EMC performance. Across the range, all-metal housings ensure thermal resilience, enabling operation from – 40°C to…
