Honeywell introduced its SNG-Q series quadrature speed and direction sensors for use in motors in heavy-duty equipment such as lift trucks, construction equipment and agricultural machinery. The ...

The benefits of a dual inductive rotary sensor. How inductive position sensors are designed to improve motor precision, motor control, and motor performance in industrial applications and requirements ...

Bipolar Hall-effect sensors are used in BLDC motors to detect the position of the rotating magnet. In this example, an eight-pole motor with a three-phase winding uses three bipolar latching ...

Precisely tracking speed, acceleration, and position of a motor's rotor is an essential requirement for many motor control applications found in everyday equipment such as fax machines, elevators, and ...

Enlisting patent-pending BiCMOS technology, the SNDH series quadrature industrial speed-and-direction sensors take a practical approach to replacing sensor-bearing products with the goal of making ...

Allegro’s A1262 is a unique two-dimensional (2D) speed and direction sensor IC that features 2D magnetic sensing via planar and vertical Hall elements. It allows the end user to achieve an ideal 90° ...

In the first installment of this series, "Calculating a practical hotspot safety margin", we discussed how two-parameter thermal models assume that the entire motor, including windings, exhibits one ...
