The latest automotive designs require smart sensors to deliver the high level of precision and robustness linked with the capability of local pre-processing of the measured data. HAL 28xy devices meet ...

The increasing requirement for stray-field compensation is creating new challenges for the design of magnetic sensors. Paired with increased functional safety requirements, as per ISO 26262 for ...

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 ...

The factory-calibrated sensor answers the call for accuracy, integrating high-voltage isolation with an advanced sensing architecture to achieve an industry-leading 0.55% typical sensitivity error ...

Melexis Technologies NV introduces two new parts to its programmable digital Hall Effect sensor line. Melexis Technologies NV introduces two new parts to its programmable digital Hall Effect sensor ...

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 ...

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 ...

What is the Hall Effect? The Hall effect is a fundamental phenomenon in physics that occurs when an electric current flows through a conductor in the presence of a magnetic field perpendicular to the ...
