Mass Flow Sensors Establish New Performance Standards
|
San Jose, CA February 23, 2011 – Posifa Microsystems, Inc., a
leader in Advanced MEMS Sensor Development, stepped out of
“stealth-mode” today to officially unveil its new line of improved Mass
Air Flow Sensors. The PMFc3000 family, which is a pin compatible upgrade
to the Honeywell AWM3000 series, incorporates the latest MEMS and
microelectronics innovations. By replacing the common “membrane-cavity”
structure with a proprietary “solid-state” thermal isolation process,
Posifa’s sensors bring new levels of reliability to their customer’s
applications, thus eliminating field failures associated with pressure
shock and contamination that have for years has plagued other
manufacturers

Vishay Intertechnology, Inc. has released a
new linear position sensor featuring non-contacting Hall effect
technology. Covering short electrical strokes to 10 mm max and available
with a spring return system, the 20 LHE is optimized for applications in
harsh environments requiring long-life sensors. The Hall effect
technology of the new 20 LHE gives it the ability to perform in
conditions involving high-frequency vibrations up to 20 G and shocks up
to 50 G. With a long life of 10 million cycles, the device is ideal for
short stroke measurements in industrial applications including tillers
heads for forklift steering; tractor gear shifts; truck tilt sensors;
and pressure measurement and pedal displacement systems
