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 ...

This article is a technical document of Allegro’s Hall effect sensor integrated circuits, how these devices were built, and how Allegro use the Hall effect principle to develop these devices. It ...

In Part 1 of this series, we covered the fundamental concepts and principles incorporated by flow meters along with various flow measurement methods used in mechanical flow meters. Part 2 covers the ...

This article provides an in-depth overview of the significance and recent advancements of graphene in Hall effect sensor application. How Do Hall Effect Sensors Work? Hall effect sensors are ...

Jim Dockendorff of MadisonSensor explains what to look for when selecting liquid level sensors and flow detection solutions.

Melexis has brought out a linear Hall-effect sensor that draws less than 5 µA at 100 Hz and integrates digital filters for enhanced performance. Its flexible architecture is available in multiple ...

There are two sensor choices, reed and Hall-effect switches. They have many similarities but also significant differences, explains Martin Reizner. Demand for reed switches has risen significantly in ...

The technique is called high-side current sensing. However, measurements at that location are fraught with problems. Of primary concern is that the measurement is at main line voltage, a problem if ...

Measuring a magnetic field can be very easy with some pretty low tech, or it can be very high tech. It just depends on what kind of measurement you need and how much effort you want to expend. The ...
