If you read about Hall effect sensors — the usual way to detect and measure magnetic fields these days — it sounds ...

Scientists at Ames National Laboratory, in collaboration with Indranil Das's group at the Saha Institute of Nuclear Physics ...

Think of a keyboard switch like light switches. They have a fixed point where they activate, and all they can report is whether they're in one of two states. Hall effect switches are more like light ...

Recently, [Solder Hub] put together a brief video that demonstrates the basics of a Hall Effect sensor — in this case, one salvaged from an old CPU fan. Two LEDs, a 100 ohm resistor, and a 3.7 volt ...

Texas Instruments (TI) has introduced the industry’s most sensitive in-plane Hall-effect switch for position sensing, offering engineers a cost-effective, user-friendly alternative to magnetoresistive ...

The TMAG5134 in-plane Hall-effect switch offers a viable alternative to existing position sensors that carry higher costs and greater manufacturing complexity. Texas Instruments (TI) has announced the ...

Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

Insight on Diodes Inc.’s first automotive-compliant 3D linear Hall-effect sensor. How it allows for reliable and high-precision contactless rotary motion and proximity detection. Application targets ...
