Current sensing devices are often desired in the power supply lines of various circuits, such as battery-powered computers, battery chargers or critical circuits requiring thermal forecasting. Figure ...

Texas Instruments (TI) expanded its portfolio of sensing integrated circuits (ICs) with four new devices that allow engineers to accurately sense key parameters in tight spaces with very low power.

Temperature sensing is one of the most frequent and important tasks in the modern electronic systems and particularly in the embedded systems. Analog temperature sensing circuits are usually the ...

A new scanning microscope developed at Brown University can uncover defects in the smallest and most complex integrated circuits at a resolution 1,000 times greater than current technology. The ...

This high-voltage device enables smaller circuit size and reduces component count and includes a 1.5-µs over-current shutdown that works with a wired-OR connection directly to the microcontroller ...

One of the challenges in any power system design is the current sensing. A popular ‘free’ method in a buck converter is DCR current sensing. It’s free in the sense that no added cost or power loss is ...

So it is with the Rogowski coil, an AC current sensing coil which is unlike conventional current transformers in that it’s open ended — in other words not needing to be closed around the ...
