The MK11 Series Sensors are supplied in a threaded style housing and accompanying hardware which allow for easy and exact adjustment in limit switch, end position and proximity sensing applications. Branching out from the plastic and stainless steel styles, the MK11 Series Threaded Reed Sensors are even more diversified with the addition of a new brass version MK11/B. More affordable and structurally robust, the brass housing is able to withsta...

Sensortechnics’ HDI sensors measure absolute, differential or gage pressures in various ranges from 10 mbar up to 5 bar. The HDI series features 3 V supply versions which are ideally suitable for battery powered applications, e.g. in portable or handheld devices. HDI pressure sensors perform precision digital signal conditioning and achieve ultra high accuracies with an excellent Total Error Band (TEB) better than ±0.5 %FSS over a temperature ...

ZF Electronics UK has announced two new angular position sensors: the AN1 series intrinsically linear angular position sensor and the AN8 series thin angular position sensor. Both the AN1 series and AN8 series have custom programmable outputs and suit a wide number of applications.

Optek's new miniature reflective object sensor provides medical electronics designers with an enhanced sensing range in space-constrained applications. Infusion and transfusion pumps and medicine dispensing equipment are two of the medical applications benefitting from Optek's new OPB733TR reflective object sensor.

Honeywell announced the introduction of new high-sensitivity Bipolar Latching Hall-Effect Digital Sensor integrated circuits (ICs) for use in a variety of transportation, industrial, commercial, and medical applications.

ALPS ELECTRIC EUROPE GmbH revealed today its new HGDFPA006A magnetic sensor that allows for the industry’s longest detection distance in determining whether home appliance covers and doors are open or closed. Sample shipments are to commence from April 2010.

ZMDI introduced the ZSSC3053, a pure differential sensor signal conditioner (SSC) for high-accuracy amplification and sensor-specific correction of millivolt-level DC sensor signals. Based on proven functionalities of ZMDI's well known sensor signal conditioner portfolio, the feature-optimized ZSSC3053 offers the highest sensor accuracy at low cost. The chip is adjustable to nearly all resistive bridge sensor types and is ideally suited for micro...
