Details of a new range of precision angular position sensors will be published early in 2015. Features include…
- Truly contactless – sensor and target can be misaligned by 0.5mm, so mechanical design is simplified.
- Through-shaft – a hole in the middle of the sensor and target allows a shaft and cabling to pass through.
- Sensors are PCBs with coil patterns provided by CambridgeIC. Customers usually build sensors themselves, just like other PCBs in their product.
- CambridgeIC’s CAM204 chip processes two sensors, delivering angle data over an SPI interface.
Lead applications include…
- Pan/tilt surveillance cameras, measuring azimuth and elevation angles for tight closed loop position control.
- Optical encoder replacement for industrial applications.
Visit CambridgeIC at Electronica and ask to see “Rotary Type 6” sensors working!
