This Design Idea drives the ±20mA current loops that are often used to control two-way proportional pneumatic or hydraulic servo valves in high power robotics applications. Most current drivers are ...

This note covers operation and applications of the HCNR200 and HCNR201 high-linearity analog optocouplers. Internal operation and the servo control mechanism of the optocouplers are described in ...

CLACTON-ON-SEA, England--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Pickering Interfaces, the leading supplier of modular signal switching and simulation solutions for use in electronic test and verification, today launched ...

Open-loop current sensors have a definite price advantage over closed-loop counterparts. While you can use them in drive applications where torque accuracy isn't demanding — such as pump and fan ...

Microcontrollers operating with 5V power supply offer enhanced immunity to interference and improved signal transmission stability, while maintaining low-power consumption. These features make them ...

The I/O capabilities built into most microcontrollers make it easy to measure the analog world. Say you want to build a data logger for temperature. All you need to do is get some kind of sensor that ...

Stepper motor systems are highly efficient when producing torque, but lack operational efficiency when not producing torque. Applied Motion Products offers insights on how to make a greener and more ...

Instrument loop problems are frustrating at the best of times and can be really time consuming affairs to deal with. Most of the time these problems are related to isolation and ground faults.
