Understanding how oxygen sensors work will help you diagnose problems without having to rely completely on a repair shop. Oxygen sensors act as low-voltage producers, such as how a microphone uses ...

P0134 – O2 Sensor Circuit No Activity Detected Sensor 1 Bank 1: The front heated oxygen sensor (or O2 sensor 1) is placed into the exhaust manifold. It detects the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas ...

Last month, we kicked this series off by showing you how to save some money by diagnosing a bad MAP sensor rather than just chucking cash at new parts that may or may not fix a specific problem. This ...

Currently, there are several semiconductor manufacturers that offer a system on a chip that is used to amplify the output of bridge sensors and compensate for error ...

Sensors are increasingly finding use in embedded systems. Although industrial products have long used them for manufacturing-control systems, consumer devices are now starting to employ them, as well.

A sensor signal conditioner (SSC) is an integrated circuit that improves — or conditions — the signal coming from a sensor to reduce noise. The SSC also converts the signal from analog to digital ...

Modern car engine control systems rely on input from several sensors to regulate the engine’s performance as well as its emissions and other vital functions. When these sensors fail to provide ...

Fürstenfeldbruck, Germany: The first sensor signal-path design tool that enables engineers to move from concept to simulation to prototyping of common sensor solutions, claims developer National ...

P0155 – O2 Sensor Heater Circuit Malfunction Bank 2 Sensor 1: Oxygen sensors (O2S) or heated oxygen sensors (HO2S) need to reach a minimum operating temperature of 750 degrees Fahrenheit to produce an ...
