The advent of electromechanical controls in the 1970s, analog controls in the 1980s, direct digital control (DDC) in the 1990s, and complete building control integration in the 2000s has progressively ...

This company's NTC-6000 Qwik-Cal LVDT Signal Conditioner brings modern digital outputs to legacy LVDTs sensors, allowing ...

The vast majority of commercial buildings today include direct digital control (DDC) systems. These systems are also known by other names, such as facility management systems (FMS) and building ...

Digital controls have been with us for years, yet those of us who do not regularly work with them are not always aware of their full capabilities. Direct digital control (DDC), building automation ...

As previously mentioned, the feedback sensors include position sensors to track the rotor’s location, current sensors to measure the motor phase currents, voltage sensors to monitor the DC bus voltage ...

I like to think of engineers as doctors of the electronics world. Let me explain: Think about the last time an optometrist examined your “human sensors.” Did they prescribe glasses to compensate for ...
