August 3, 2016 - The LDC0851 detects the presence or absence of a conductive material by using a simple coil drawn on a printed circuit board (PCB). It provides designers an for proximity, position and motion sensing applications such as rotational encoders, buttons and door open/close detection. In addition, the device does not require any calibration during production, saving time and cost during manufacturing.
Key features:
- Magnet-less operation
- Delivers better than 1% switching accuracy,
- Operates at less than 20 µA at 10 samples per second
- Immunity to nonconductive contaminants, such as oil, dirt and dust
