Part Number: LDC3114 Tool/software: Hi,
I watched this youtube demo using LDC3114 for grip detection.
From the demo, force or grip is applied to the LDC3114 inductive sensor creating compression.
My first question is, would I get similar results…
Ankush,
Please take a look at our Inductive Sensing Design Calculator Tool. You can find it here .
It allows you to design sensors and explore device settings or our LDC parts. You can also explore the sensor inductor/frequency shift over the range…
Part Number: LDC3114 Other Parts Discussed in Thread: LDC1101 , LDC0851 , Hi team,
Can our inductive sensor recognize metal materials differences? I've seen material target graph which might recognize the materials on Figure 2-1 with below link. https…
A shorter range is not possible, but the target can have any kind of form factor. Is there a tool that I can use to input my design requirements, such as sensing distance and sensor resolution? The tool would then output the sensor specifications and…
Inductive sensing relies on the interaction of the electromagnetic fields generated by the inductive sensor and the currents being induced on the conductive surface. It is important to recognize that the further the target is moved from the inductive…
Kwon,
The combination of small inductors and larger capacitors can present a challenge.
Attached is a document that might help. It was once a blog post about using small inductors, but has been since taken down (don't know why).
Please look it over…
Materials with high conductivity for inductive sensing may be expensive, so limiting the amount of material used for a target in an inductive system is of paramount importance, but what is the ideal target thickness for inductive sensing?
In order to understand what materials works best for inductive sensing we first must understand how inductive sensors work. Inductive sensors are designed to detect metal targets through the use of eddy currents. When the conductive target interacts with…
Hello Marko,
Glad you have found the evaluation kit helpful. Presently both of our inductive sensing experts are out on leave. However, one of them will be returning next Tuesday. Would a discussion with him then be ok?
Marko,
Thank you for your post, and your interest in TI products.
In your second question, the advice on using as many turns as possible has two considerations. The first is that using as many turns as possible maximizes the sensitivity of the sensor…
