Need a Hall sensor? A strip of copper, a strong magnet, and an LM358 are all you need to explore the Hall effect hands-on.

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...
