CambridgeIC’s team started developing resonant inductive position sensing technology in 1995. We design sensors that are built from PCBs, which makes them precise, robust, suited to harsh environments and cost effective.

Unlike normal inductive position sensors, our technology detects moving targets that include a resonant circuit. This delivers higher performance, so big gaps and misalignment between sensor and target are possible.

The electronic processing for resonant inductive position sensors is particularly challenging. This was the motivation for the formation of CambridgeIC in 2007. We developed the world’s first stand-alone processing chip for resonant inductive sensors. Customers buy processing chips from CambridgeIC, embed them inside their products and connect them to their choice of sensor. We have developed a range of standard linear, rotary and arc sensor designs that customers can have manufactured themselves using standard PCB fabs

Nitto Kohki designs, develops and manufactures high quality air compressors and vacuum pumps for challenging applications like medical devices, laboratory equipment, and applied robotics. The result is an intelligent package that runs quieter, consumes less energy, and lasts longer than comparable equipment.
