The LF21173TMR and LF21177TMR omnipolar magnetic switches from Littelfuse combine Tunneling Magnetoresistance (TMR) sensing with CMOS output circuitry in a compact LGA4 package for low-power, space-constrained designs. Operating across a 1.8 V–5.5 V supply range, the switches offer magnetic sensitivity from 9 to 30 Gauss and omnipolar operation, supporting applications such as smart meters, electronic […]

Pull type solenoids meet the user’s requirement
Magnetic Sensor Systems (MSS) released their S-20-100X model of Pull Type Tubular Solenoids. Their S-20-100X series of solenoids features 18 different solenoids to select from based on the user’s Voltage, Duty Cycle, Force and Stroke requirement. MSS Solenoids coils typically use Class “F” 23 to 40 AWG windings with Class “A” insulation for better solenoid […]
Position Sensors for Medical Applications
Medical OEM applications, such as surgical table positioning can benefit from position sensors designed for wear-free operation. ASM Sensors PRAS20/PRAS21 series are magnetic rotary sensors that offer wear-free capability. The non-contact position sensors use an external position magnet to provide an absolute output signal over a 0 to 360-degree measurement range. Key parameters for the […]
Turck Incremental Magnetic Encoders Fit into Small Spaces
Squeezing an incremental encoder into a tight spot can be a problem. TURCK’s newest incremental magnetic encoders designed with a miniature 24-mm diameter housing can address the space issue in many applications. The non-contact Kübler by TURCK 2430 shaft and 2440 blind hollow shaft encoders operate between -20 to 85°C, and a maximum speed rating […]
