ZMD AG (ZMDI), a Dresden-based semiconductor company that specializes in enabling energy-efficient solutions, has launched an RGB/ambient light and proximity sensor IC. The ZOPT3100 expands the ...

Vishay Intertechnology has introduced a fully integrated proximity sensor combining a high power vertical-cavity surface-emitting laser (VCSEL), a photodiode, a signal processing IC, and a 12-bit ADC ...

The sensing range of the series is approximately twice that of previous models for ferrous metals and six times as long as previous models for aluminum, making them the suitable for mixed-metal ...

Inductive proximity sensors typically mount so the objects they detect approach within 40 to 80% of the sensor target range. This range usually allows for all accumulated manufacturing and application ...

Housed in threaded, 12-mm metal barrels, the M12 photoelectric sensor family is capable of replacing range-limited proximity sensors. With IP67/NEMA 6 ratings, each member of the family includes a ...

Proximity sensors detect objects without physical contact. Most proximity sensors emit an electromagnetic field or beam and look for changes in the field. The object being sensed is called a target.

A high-accuracy, optical, range-finding module developed by STMicroelectronics, based on FlightSense Time-of-Flight technology, offers designers extended distance-measurement capability. A ...
