The MAX31850/MAX31851, cold-junction-compensated, 1-Wire thermocouple-to-digital converters were introduced today. The devices achieve ±2.0°C accuracy (not including sensor nonlinearity) while integrating all of the functions required for a complete (thermocouple-to-digital solution). Additionally, the MAX31850/MAX31851’s 1-Wire interface allows multiple sensor locations to communicate and draw power over a single data line, greatly simplifying wiring requirements. Designers can […]
MEMS Wireless Vibration Sensing System
The wireless vibration sensing system allows industrial systems operators to remotely monitor production equipment health, improve system performance, and reduce maintenance costs. The new networked system includes the ADIS16229 iSensor wireless vibration sensor node, which combines dual-axis digital MEMs (micro-electro mechanical systems) acceleration sensing with advanced frequency-domain and time-domain signal processing. The sensing system […]
