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

Hall effect sensors are everywhere right now. Keyboards, game controllers, and DIY kits use them for more precise inputs. But with any newly popular device, it can be easy to immediately jump onto the ...

This technical paper provides an overview of Hall-effectsensors, particularly the use of two-wire, Hall-effect digital switchesin automotive and industrial applications. It then details a method ...

There are plenty of PC joysticks out there, but that didn’t stop [dizekat] from building his own. Most joysticks measure position mechanically using potentiometers or encoders. Only a few high-end ...

Current sensing is on a trajectory to intersect with the global high-voltage trend of robust, high-performing systems. Discover the tradeoffs between isolated shunt-based, closed-loop Hall-effect, and ...

I’m admittedly not huge Switch fan, but my kids are - we have 1 original and 2 lites in our household. But as more details arise, the Switch 2 is less and less compelling. Let’s call it $500 (trariff ...
