AK8963 is 3-axis electronic compass IC with high sensitive Hall sensor technology. Small package of AK8963 incorporates magnetic sensors for detecting terrestrial magnetism in the X-axis, Y-axis, and ...

Every once in a while we stumble across something so simple yet so clever that we just have to call it out. This custom linear Hall effect sensor is a perfect example of this. By way of backstory, ...

The MLX90316 is a CMOS Hall sensor that gives the angular position of a magnetic field parallel to the IC surface. It is designed for contactless rotary position sensors that are frequently required ...

Recently, [Solder Hub] put together a brief video that demonstrates the basics of a Hall Effect sensor — in this case, one salvaged from an old CPU fan. Two LEDs, a 100 ohm resistor, and a 3.7 volt ...

From rotating magnets, Melexis is intending to generate two quadrature outputs with “minimal jitter as well as consistent 90° phase shift regardless of magnet pole pitch” from single IC containing two ...

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 ...
