Hybrids AMS8176/77

DESCRIPTION

  The AMS8170 series are hybrid circuits dedicated to tubular inductive proximity detectors, especially for small diameter hollow stud constructions.

The module consists of a proximity detector IC with a PNP output buffer for NC and NO applications. A part of the multiple protection functions and the status indicator (LED) are realised with discrete elements. All these components are assembled by using hybrid thickfilm technology (ASIC-on-Hybrid) combined with surface mounted devices.

By adding a coil with a potcore and a distance resistor the AMS8170 series works as a complete proximity switch.

AMS8176 Proximity switch hybrid for switches with 4 or M6 diameter.

AMS8177 Proximity switch hybrid for switches with M6 or M8-M12 diameter.
