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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

This application note describes coreless Hall Effect current sensor integrated circuits (ICs) and the common mode field rejection. This document covers the limiting factors in differential current ...

The trend in power electronics is no different than that in other electronics fields: a greater degree of integration coupled with a lower component count. Power electronics systems, however, include ...

Devices in the AH39xxQ series provide accurate speed and directional data or two independent outputs. These sensors are designed for industrial and automotive applications such as detecting rotational ...
