NVE Corporation is a global leader in spintronics, a cutting-edge nanotechnology that harnesses the quantum mechanical property of electron spin. Founded in 1989 and headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, NVE designs and manufactures advanced spintronic products including magnetic sensors, digital isolators, and licenses MRAM intellectual property.
NVE's product portfolio leverages two patented spintronic nano-scale structures: Giant Magnetoresistors (GMR) and Tunneling Magnetoresistors (TMR). Their sensors enable precise position, speed, and proximity detection, while their isolators deliver unprecedented miniaturization, high speed, low pulse width distortion, and exceptional common-mode transient immunity.
- GMR and TMR magnetic sensors for position, speed, proximity, and field measurement
- Award-winning digital isolators with industry-leading speed and common-mode transient immunity
- Unlimited isolator lifespan with no degradation unlike optocouplers
- Spintronics technology enabling unprecedented miniaturization and low power consumption
Frequently Asked Questions
- What is spintronics technology?
- Spintronics is a nanotechnology that exploits the intrinsic spin of electrons rather than just their charge. It enables unprecedented miniaturization, high precision sensing, unmatched reliability, and low power consumption since electron spin states are persistent.
- What types of sensors does NVE manufacture?
- NVE manufactures Giant Magnetoresistive (GMR) and Tunneling Magnetoresistive (TMR) sensors for position sensing, speed detection, proximity measurement, and precise magnetic field measurement applications.
- What are the advantages of NVE isolators over optocouplers?
- NVE isolators offer smaller size, higher speed, lower pulse width distortion, superior common-mode transient immunity, excellent EMC performance, and unlimited lifespan with no degradation, unlike LED-based optocouplers.
- What applications use NVE spintronic products?
- NVE products are used in industrial automation, automotive systems, medical devices, power electronics isolation, motor control, current sensing, and any application requiring precise magnetic sensing or galvanic isolation.
