Field sensors ideal for a variety of applications

09-07-2019 | Mouser Electronics | Test & Measurement

Crocus Technology CT100 1D Linear TMR Field Sensors, available now from Mouser, are based on the company's Magnetic Logic Unit technology. The highly linear devices with wide dynamic ranges allow the sensors to be employed in a mixture of applications from contactless current sensing to linear and proximity measurements.

The sensors can measure the current from the induced magnetic field of the current carrying conductor. The linear sensors offer highly accurate measurements. These field sensors come packaged in an industry standard six-lead SOT-23 package or a very low profile, small form factor six-lead DFN package for mobile and wearable applications.

Typical applications include linear measurements, proximity sensing, fuse current reader, current sensing, and optical image stabilization for cameras.
