Market of Electronic Humidity Sensors
Published in Ghenadii Korotcenkov, Handbook of Humidity Measurement, 2020
The list of some companies operating in the of electronic humidity sensors is listed in Table 28.3. Most popular are Panametrics, Ametek, General Eastern, Endress & Hauser, Rotronic, and Vaisala. The key players dominating this market include also Aptina Imaging Corporation, Autoliv Inc., BEI Sensors, Bourns Inc., Continental AG, Corrsys-Datron Sensorsystem GmbH, CTS Corporation, Custom Sensors & Technologies Inc., Delphi Corporation, Denso Corporation, Freescale Semiconductor Inc., GE Sensing & Inspection Technologies, Hamamatsu Photonics KK, Hamlin Electronics LP, Hella KGaA Hueck & Co., Hitachi Automotive Systems, Honeywell Sensing & Control, Infineon Technologies North America Corp., Kavlico Corporation, Melexis Microelectronic Integrated Systems N.V, Melexis Inc., Omron Corporation, OSRAM Opto Semiconductors GmbH, Robert Bosch GmbH, etc. It should be noted that according to a new market research report “Digital Temperature and Humidity Sensor Market to 2020” prepared by “MarketsandMarkets,” the market size of humidity sensors will grow substantially. For example, it is expected that the market of digital temperature and humidity sensors for automotive applications until 2020 will grow from $1,084.38 million in 2013 to $2,129.68 million in 2020, what is ~11% per year. It is believed that digital sensors offer many advantages over conventional sensors, such as high performance and accuracy coupled with low cost, easy implementation, no requirement for complex calibration, and low-power consumption, among others. The acoustic-wave humidity-sensor market was valued at $15.0 million in 2013 and is expected to reach a market value of $38.0 million in 2018, growing at a CAGR of 21.0% from 2013 to 2018.
Data Acquisition-Sensors and Microcontrollers
Published in Daniel H. Nichols, Physics for Technology, 2019
Analog sensors are sensors with outputs that change continuously with changing inputs. A digital sensor is an electronic sensor where data conversion and data transmission are done digitally and sent to a computer or microcontroller to be recorded, plotted, and analyzed. Examples of acquiring data from sensors, plotting and analyzing the data will be discussed in this section. This discussion is not meant as a complete guide but as a starting point with links to references (Figure 17.32).
Servo Feedback Devices and Motor Sensors
Published in Wei Tong, Mechanical Design and Manufacturing of Electric Motors, 2022
An encoder is a digital sensor that generates a coded reading of measurement to provide motion information like position, speed, and rotational direction. The main advantages of digital sensors over their analog counterparts include high accuracy, high resolution, ease of adaptation in digital control systems, effective signal transmission and data storage, capability to work under high noise environments, and free from observational errors.

Table 2 shows the important features of the AS7262 sensor. For additional information, refer to AMS (2019). Low-cost multispectral sensors are recent in the market and their potential is enormous for the analysis of light sources. One of the biggest advantages of digital sensors is that their configuration can be done by software.
