In the first installment of this series, "Calculating a practical hotspot safety margin", we discussed how two-parameter thermal models assume that the entire motor, including windings, exhibits one ...

If you build engines, tune cars, or even just like mashing your foot on the throttle with conviction, you’ve probably heard ...

Don't let failing oxygen sensors compromise your engine's performance. O2 sensors are critical to emissions control on your car, SUV or truck. As the name implies, the O2 sensor (also called an ...

Microchip Technology Inc. has extended its family of inductive position sensors into the electric-vehicle (EV) motor control market, with the launch of the LX34070 IC. Designed for EV motor control ...

The engine test stands used with advanced data-acquisition systems require a different type of pressure sensor than those used in the past. Engine hydraulics and pneumatics operate faster and often, ...

The benefits of a dual inductive rotary sensor. How inductive position sensors are designed to improve motor precision, motor control, and motor performance in industrial applications and requirements ...

What’s being described as an “onboard weather station,” the 3.6L twin-turbo LF3 V6 engine launching in the 2014 Cadillac XTS Vsport and 2014 CTS Vsport this fall is equipped with a set of sensors that ...

Last month we fielded a question about a fault code a reader had been trying to repair for more than a year. To recap, the Corvette in question, a ’96 model, had a recurring P0171 code, or “System Too ...

Scientists have developed a dye process that helps detect wear-and-tear on electric motor wire insulation. Typically, engineers can tell the condition of an electric motor by the wear on the ...

In 2022, the global E-Motor Rotor Position Sensors market was valued at US$ million and is expected to reach US$ million by 2029, with a steady CAGR during the forecast period. The report underscores ...
