As automobile technology develops, automobile becomes smarter and easier to control. The technologies used in these systems have evolved over time, however, and position sensors have been a big part of this evolution.
Many types of position sensors are available today, including ultrasonic, optical, magnetic, capacitive and inductive. Position-sensing integrated circuits (ICs) detect the movement of an object and transduce the input signal into an electrical signal suitable for microcontroller (MCU) processing and control.
