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

The Hall Effect provides the capability for several non-contact magnet measurements. From speed and direction to current sensing, application requirements have driven suppliers to develop products ...

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 ...

The MLX92231 targets applications requiring Hall effect switch magnetic characteristics. Constructed on a proprietary mixed signal CMOS process technology, the MLX92231 integrate a Hall sensor element ...

The A139x family, released by Allegro since 2005, is a Hall-effect sensor IC family that has only 10 mW power consumption in the active mode with tri-state output and user-selectable sleep mode. A ...

After dealing with years of widespread reports of “stick drift” on the original Switch Joy-Cons, Nintendo watchers have been hoping the Switch 2 would make use of magnetic Hall effect sensors that ...

The technique is called high-side current sensing. However, measurements at that location are fraught with problems. Of primary concern is that the measurement is at main line voltage, a problem if ...

They're bigger and sturdier, but still not Hall Effect. Nintendo Switch 2, at least for now, will not incorporate one of the most-requested features users have wanted for years. If you're not already ...
