Sensors
A sensor is a device that detects the change in the environment and
responds to some output on the other system
A sensor converts a physical phenomenon into a measurable analog voltage
(or sometimes a digital signal) converted into a human-readable display or
transmitted for reading or further processing
• Proximity • Position/Velocity
– Mechanical – Encoders
– Optical – Tacho-generator
– Inductive/Capacitive • Force/Pressure
• Vibration/acceleration

Sensors
Definitions
• Accuracy: The agreement between the actual value and the measured
value
• Resolution: The change in measured variable to which the sensor will
respond
• Repeatability: Variation of sensor measurements when the same
quantity is measured several times
• Range: Upper and lower limits of the variable that can be measured
• Sensitivity and Linearity

Proximity Sensors
Widely used in general industrial automation
– Conveyor lines (counting, jam detection, etc)
– Machine tools (safety interlock, sequencing)
• Usually digital (on/off) sensors detecting the presence or absence of
an object.
• Consist of:
– Sensor head: optical, inductive, capacitive
– Detector circuit
– Amplifier
– Output circuit: TTL, solid state relay

Limit Switch
•Essentially a mechanical switch
•On/off operation only
•Two general modes –Normally Open (NO) –
Normally Closed (NC)
•Come in a wide variety of mechanical forms
•For a wide range of uses

Photoelectric Sensors
Operational Modes
• Through Beam:
–Long range (20m)
–Alignment is critical!
• Retro-reflective
–Range 1-3m
–Popular and cheap
• Diffuse-reflective
–Range 12-300mm
–Cheap and easy to use www.hcmute.edu.vn

Photoelectric Sensors
• Pros • Cons
–Non-contact, no moving parts, small. –Alignment always required
–Fast switching, no switch bounce. –Can be blinded by ambient light
conditions (welding for example)
–Insensitive to vibration and shock
–Requires clean, dust and water
–Many configurations available free, environment

Proximity Sensors
Two types:
Inductive Proximity Sensor:
• They use magnetic field to sense only metal objects
Capacitive Proximity Sensor:
• They use electric field to sense metal or non-metal objects
No physical contact required
Sensing distance: < 20mm
NPN or PNP output
