At Sensor Expo 2019, Devon Brock, Manager of Product Knowledge for the Sensor Group within TE Connectivity explains the DOG2 microelectromechanical systems (MEMS) -based inclinometer used to control a robotic arm. The two-axis tilt sensor provides ±90-degree measurements in the x and y axes. In the robotic arm, the inclinometer with its built-in electronic provides […]
What sensors can be used in an AC system?
At Sensors Expo 2019, Devin Brock, Manager of Product Knowledge and Training for Sensors Solutions at TE Connectivity, explains the numerous opportunities for a variety of sensors in an air conditioning (AC) system. The working table top heating ventilating and AC (HVAC) system from New Product Innovations has wired and wireless sensors from TE Connectivity […]
How can you learn to use a digital output humidity+temperature sensor?
With Avnet’s four-part MiniZed SpeedWay Design Workshops™ interactive series of video presentations, using its MiniZed™ Zynq SoC development kit, interested participants learn techniques to integrate the HTU21D sensing peripheral module from TE Connectivity as part of the training. The development kit is a prototyping platform for embedded vision and Industrial IoT systems. Design Workshops are […]
How have pressure sensors changed over the last few years?
At Sensors Expo 2017, Pete Smith, Sensors Knowledge Manager at TE Connectivity, explains how sensors have evolved over the last few years to address different application requirements from TE Connectivity’s perspective. Pete’s story starts with the M7100, a standard industrial pressure sensor for TE Connectivity that addresses fuel rail pressure measurements in fuel injected vehicles. […]
Measure Position in Hazardous Locations
Some rather common applications require a hazardous location and even an intrinsically safe operation certification. The CSA Group provides this for products used in North American and around the world. With this rating, TE Connectivity’s HLIR 750 series intrinsically safe, 4-20 mA LVDT position sensors can be used for contact-less measurements in applications in gas […]
Pressure Transmitter Addresses High Shock
Drift can commonly occur in pressure transmitters operating in a high shock and vibration environment. TE Connectivity hammer union pressure transmitters address this issue by using a thick Inconel™ 718 diaphragm and silicon strain gages to increase survivability and long-term performance. “The unique design of the Hammer Union Pressure Transmitter allows it to work in […]
