TDK Corp. has expanded its Micronas direct-angle Hall-effect sensor family with the HAR 3927 dual-die position sensor for safety critical automotive and industrial applications. The Hall-effect sensor ...

Texas Instruments (TI) has claimed the industry’s most accurate 3D Hall-effect position sensor with the introduction of the TMAG5170. The sensor delivers uncalibrated ultra-high precision at speeds up ...

* HQ0A11 is smaller and thinner than the HQ0811 (1.6 x 0.8 x 0.38 mm), which was previously the smallest and thinnest high-sensitivity Hall element. It also has an approximately 16% better S/N (signal ...

The low power consumption, cost-effectiveness, and smaller footprints offered by Hall-effect sensors make them strong candidates for a wide range of designs and applications. The main trends in ...

Covering short electrical strokes to 10 mm max and available with a spring return system, the 20 LHE is optimized for applications in harsh environments requiring long-life sensors. The Hall effect ...

This paper will discuss a Hall Effect Magnetic Solid State position/motion sensor. This new type of Probe Sensor functions by sensing a change in magnetic field intensity and converts this change into ...

If you read about Hall effect sensors — the usual way to detect and measure magnetic fields these days — it sounds deceptively simple. There’s a metal plate with current flowing across it in one ...

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 ...

Due to recent advances in micro-sensing technology, tasks that once seemed relatively complex can now be addressed with the use of inexpensive sensors. These devices perform sensing duties, plus ...
