Imagine that you have a great idea for a product that includes a plastic injection-molded case or a glass panel, and you would like to explore the possibility of replacing the mechanical buttons with ...

Capacitive sensors are typically cost-effective and deliver low-power performance features aligned with today’s trends for consumer and industrial applications. Capacitive sensors are cost effective ...

Most proximity sensors use an electromagnetic field to sense the presence of a target metal. But there are times when it's necessary to sense nonmetallic materials such as plastics, liquids, or ...

Non-contact displacement measurements can be made rapidly and with high precision using capacitive sensors over a modest range. The main features are: Capacitive sensing is a non-contact measurement ...

The use of air-break disconnect switches to interrupt the capacitive currents associated with open‑ended bus runs and short lines is common practice. In most cases, the current magnitude is no more ...
