Infineon has introduced its XENSIV SP49 tire pressure monitoring sensor, which integrates MEMS (micro-electromechanical systems) sensors and ASIC to provide advanced tire pressure monitoring systems.

Capacitive sensors are found in a wide range of equipment, from consumer electronics to industrial/process control. Touch buttons are increasingly found in lamps and dimmers. Motion detectors can ...

Environmental temperature fluctuations can cause sensor output variations separate from measured pressure. A sensor’s thermal sensitivity dictates the severity of these output errors, with higher ...
