We’re used to Hall effect devices as proximity sensors in mechanical systems, used to provide detection of something that has a magnet attached to it. However it’s easy to forget that the devices that ...

I have a pile of different generic electric bike throttles purchased from several online sellers. They all arrived about a week ago. I have a goal of using them to make the basic model of an electric ...

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 ...

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 ...

The difference between Hall-effect sensors and Hall elements. Why Hall-effect sensors provide more than on and off information. How Hall-effect sensors can detect magnetic fields from an extended ...

Two similar families of precision, analog-output current sensors use the Hall effect to measure tens of amps with low drift and high linearity while providing 3-kVrms galvanic isolation. Current ...
