Summary: | In the race to get to market quickly, designers have limited time to design the power supply and limited space to dissipate the heat while also meeting shock, vibration, and EMI requirements – a multidimensional challenge. Smart Sensor Market Trends The fourth industrial revolution, commonly referred to as Industry 4.0, impacts the current trend of automation and data exchange in manufacturing where cyber-physical systems, the IIoT, cloud computing, and cognitive computing all operate together to create a “smart factory.” IO-Link sensor market trend.1 Old-School Sensors Review Historically, a sensor included a sensing element and some way to get the sensing data to the programmable logic controller (PLC) (Fig. 2). Let’s take a look at the power dissipation of the sensor circuitry, power supply, and total device using an LDO (low drop-out linear regulator), a traditional power solution (Fig. 5). |
