A Hall-effect sensor is a transducer that converts a magnetic field directly into a usable electrical voltage. It enables ...

This application note presents some of the fundamental information about Hall-Effect sensors. It also presents the basics of magnetics, and the added value of programmable sensors and sensor interface ...

We’re used to Hall effect devices as proximity sensors in mechanical systems, used to provide detection of something that has a magnet attached to it. However it’s easy to forget that the devices that ...

This document presents an application guide of Hall-Effect integrated circuits (ICs). It covers low-cost simplified switching, low-cost linear sensor ICs, sensitive circuits for rugged service, linear ...

The difference between Hall-effect sensors and Hall elements. Why Hall-effect sensors provide more than on and off information. How Hall-effect sensors can detect magnetic fields from an extended ...

While most sensors that surround us and make modern technology possible are well-known and understood, magnetic sensors used in magnetometers are often overlooked or misunderstood, even though they’re ...

The A1301 and A1302 ratiometric, linear Hall-effect sensors in a SOT23 package are rated for operation to 150 degrees. The A1301 and A1302 ratiometric, linear Hall-effect sensors in a SOT23 package ...

There’s many different ways of measuring current. If it’s DC, the easiest way is to use a shunt resistor and measure the voltage across it, and for AC you could use a current transformer. But the ...
