This Design Idea implements a remote sensor preamp (e.g., for a piezoelectric transducer) which transfers both signal and power over a single wire pair or coax. R6 provides a matching load to the ...

The 1-Wire protocol is usually found in temperature sensors, but you’ll also find it in chips ranging from load sensors, a battery sensor and LED driver that is oddly yet officially called a ‘gas ...

Conventional thermostats are based on separate temperature sensor and heater devices with means for feedback between them. But in some recent EDN design ideas (DIs) we’ve seen thermostat designs that ...

Using a home's electrical wiring as a giant copper antenna allows for wireless sensors that can communicate over a whole house and run for decades on a single watch battery. The device could be used ...

DataNab is expanding its range of 1-Wire temperature sensors as the company builds on its diverse sensor portfolio. DataNab is expanding its range of 1-Wire temperature sensors as the company builds ...

The first step can often be the most important in any design activity. It certainly is true when engineers work to integrate sensors into their product development process. Here, the first step is the ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Force sensors weigh freight on manufacturing and transportation equipment. They also monitor loads on machines subject to stringent ...
