Here’s a comparison of the performance and limitations of inductive, capacitive, photelectric and ultrasonic proximity sensors.

They are an ideal choice for industrial proximity switches, pneumatic cylinder switches, and liquid level switches that require precise measurement of position and displacement, excellent temperature ...

New research using a decommissioned section of the beam pipe from the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) at CERN has brought scientists closer than ever before to test whether magnetic monopoles exist.

Magnetic storage reaches the atomic level The magnetic field of a single atom is read and written, but it's not very stable.

Last week Belgian fabless chip company Melexis announced a unique inductive sensing IC that includes a tiny transformer, drive circuit and sense circuit, ...
