IPS2550 Datasheet Inductive Position Sensor

Manufacturer: Renesas

Overview: Inductive Position Sensor IC IPS2550 Datasheet.

General Description

The IPS2550 is a magnet-free, inductive position sensor IC that can be used for high-speed absolute position sensing in automotive, industrial, medical, and consumer applications.

The IPS2550 uses the physical principle of eddy currents to detect the position of a simple metallic target that is moving above a set of coils, consisting of one transmitter coil and two receiver coils.

The three coils are typically printed as copper traces on a printed circuit board (PCB).

Key Features

  • Position sensing based on an inductive principle.
  • Cost-effective; no magnet required.
  • Immune to magnetic stray fields; no shielding required.
  • Suitable for harsh environments and extreme temperatures.
  • Differential and single-ended sine and cosine outputs.
  • Automatic gain control with programmable limits.
  • Nonvolatile user-configurable memory, programmable via I2C interface.
  • Programmable through analog or digital interface.
  • Single IC supports on-axis and.
