The vast majority of electronic devices today use the sensors to detect some physical phenomenon in the world that surrounds us (like temperature, pressure, light intensity, etc). The sensors ...

During the relatively brief history of electronic motion control systems, a number of communications and networking schemes have been introduced. Not all get equal acceptance in the marketplace, but ...

The image sensor is arguably the most important component in a digital video or still camera. But these sensors are also notoriously non-standardized. They tend to differ in the schemes used for: ...

The development of a cutting-edge graphene sensor has led to the creation of an interface that is able to accurately control a robot using thought alone. The development has positive implications not ...

PIC, Arduino, and Raspberry Pi: If you can work with these three types of systems, then you can connect with just about anything Microcontrollers (MCUs) can be very handy, but without the ability to ...

Bringing Linear Displacement Transducer (LDT) position sensor data into the 1756 ControlLogix PLC is now easy and affordable. AMCI’s 2 channel 7252 LDT/MDT interface card can directly interface to two ...

Also known as “smart everything,” the Internet of Things (IoT) is grabbing headlines across the industry. As any great new technology, it comes wrapped in shiny paper that touts it as the solution for ...

Piscataway, NJ. The MIPI Alliance, an international organization that develops interface specifications for mobile and mobile-influenced industries, today released MIPI I3C Host Controller Interface ...

UC San Diego has developed a system that uses analog sensors with a direct interface to RFID tags, making them passive sensor devices. The solution includes analog to digital conversion without ...

Inter integrated circuits (I2C) is a multi-master, low-bandwidth, short distance, serial communication protocol. Because of its simplicity and flexibility, I2C and its derivatives are widely employed ...

The Mobile Industry Processor Interface (MIPI) Alliance has come a long way since its founding a decade ago by ARM, Nokia, ST and Texas Instruments. The Alliance's task was to standardise the chip ...
