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 ...

Allegro MicroSystems has announced the A31316 3D Hall-effect position sensor, the latest addition to its 3DMAG line of 3D sensors. Offered in a 4 × 4 mm body PCB-less package, this sensor is intended ...

Melexis has brought out the latest variant from its IMC-Hall current sensor – the MLX91218 Low Field (LF). The MLX91218-LF is designed for lower current applications (below 100 A). It enables smart ...

Recently, I’ve been working on a solar off-grid monitoring system. In the system are a few split-core Hall effect sensors to monitor DC current in the solar panel current, the battery charge current, ...

Now, it’s been a shamefully long time since we’ve driven a car with a manual transmission, but as we recall it was pretty straightforward. It certainly didn’t require a lot of help with the shifting ...

Piher Sensors & Controls has introduced the MTS-360 Mechanical Mount Rotary Position Sensor with integral PCB for fast and easy mounting. Designed with the sensor directly mounted onto a PCB, the ...
