Advanced Switching and Magnetic Sensing Solutions
Using proven TMR (Tunneling Magnetoresistance) technology, the high-performance RedRock™ RR111 analog TMR magnetic sensor series, the RR121 & RR122 digital sensor series, and the RR131 digital switch series have numerous technologically-advanced applications in multiple markets. Offering both high sensitivity, ultra-miniature package size, ultra-low power consumption and a highly-competitive price, the TMR Magnetic Sensor devices are ideally suited to the demands of next generation medical, automotive, instrumentation, consumer and industrial applications. The tiny TMR Magnetic Sensors offer high magnetic sensitivity with high hysteresis, EMF resistance, and a small package size, all while consuming almost NO POWER!
Coto Technology is the worldwide leader of small signal switching products sold into the Automatic Test Equipment, Data Acquisition, Instrumentation, Process Control, Telecommunications, Medical and Security markets. Our Classic line of Relays & Switches contains a wide range of form and function. And all of our products are 100% tested!
CotoMOS® relays are a reliable and readily-available switching solution by Coto Technology. Utilizing highly-reliable, custom-designed MOSFET technology, CotoMOS® relays provide a high-performance, solid state solution for applications requiring low input power and virtually unlimited life. Ideally suited to the needs of industrial controls, security, metering, instrumentation and automatic test equipment, CotoMOS® relays are available in Form A, Form B, and Form A+B (Form C) form factors to service a wide range of switching requirements.
Located in Mexicali, Mexico, Coto’s manufacturing facility offers a full range of comprehensive services. Provisions include physical resources, engineering, procurement, and supply chain management - as well as production planning and product cell manufacturing using highly-automated, precision machinery in conjunction with complex hand-assembly processing. Finishing services include final product testing, marking, packaging , inventorying and shipping.
Coto has collaborated with MikroE in their new TMR mix-sens Click Board to target product development engineers who currently use or might use the MikroE ecosystem to speed prototype and development of products using Coto RedRock® TMR magnetic sensors. Read More!
The Coronavirus continues to disrupt business around the world. We feel fortunate that our corporate office employees have remained healthy; they continue to work remotely since the state of Rhode Island ordered us to close down our North Kingstown office on March 23.
In Mexicali, we are happy to report that our employees have also remained healthy. Recently we had more good news to share. After much due diligence, Coto Technology, Inc. received a “stamp of acknowledgement” from Mexicali, Mexico authorities; we are now recognized as an essential business. As such, Coto was permitted to partially re-open its main manufacturing and distribution center in Mexicali/Mexico last week. The task was complex and carefully executed as we must adhere strictly to many restrictions and safety conditions put forth by the local authorities. We remain guarded to the possibility that we could be forced to shut down again should federal authorities declare it necessary.
We have resumed facilitation of all incoming and outgoing shipments. However, because a severely reduced number of staff and operators are allowed to enter our facility, production output is limited. Priority must be given to customers who have been officially classified as “essential” entities – a status that must be proven in writing. Remaining capacity will be used to serve general backlog.
In addition to maintaining strict hygiene standards throughout the facility, we are conducting scheduled employee health checks / measurements before and during the work days. The safety and well-being of our employees remain our first priority.
Of course, our customers are also important to us and we fully recognize their need for our products. We are moving forward as quickly as possible under the conditions set before us; however, until we are allowed to return to full production, we cannot rule out delays for some orders. As we work through the complexities brought on by the Coronavirus pandemic, we ask for your continued patience and understanding as you wait for us to answer questions regarding your particular order backlog. Meanwhile, stay healthy and stay safe.

Showcasing five of Coto Technology’s RedRock TMR (Tunneling Magnetoresistance) magnetic sensors of omnipolar, unipolar, bipolar and linear types, the RR1EK3-0002 demo board provides an engineering playground designed to promote understanding of TMR’s high-sensitivity and precise polarity performance. Via LED indicator lights, the analog and digital sensors react visually to the provided magnets – demonstrating latching, dual output, wake-up, directional, and other magnetic behaviors.
