| Sensors |
| Among others, ST produces a family of proximity
detectors - integrated circuits designed for metallic
body detection, which act as oscillators, sensing
variations in high frequency eddy current losses.

| Micro-electro-mechanical system |
| The mechanical system is based on two silicon inter-digitated
comb- fingers, where a set of fingers is fixed and a set is suspended
and can move in-plan under the action of a suitable force. Vibration,
acceleration or rotation are measured by the change of capacitance
between these movable and fixed structures. (More...) |

| Thyristors & ACSwitches |
| Standard
and sensitive SCRs (Silicon Controlled Rectifier), sensitive,
Snuberless™ and high temperature Triacs, Application Specific
Devices (ASD) for industrial applications, overvoltage proof ACS™
and ACST immune to transient busts, ST's Thyristors and AC Switches
are the easiest way to secure the design and the reliability of
AC power circuits. (More...) |
