Hall Effect Sensors & Switches
Hall Effect Sensors detect the presence of a magnetic field and generate a voltage proportional to the field strength. Consisting of a semiconductor material, they produce a voltage across their terminals when subjected to a magnetic field perpendicular to the current flow. In Hall Effect Switches, this voltage is utilized to trigger a digital output, enabling applications like proximity sensing, speed measurement, and position detection. The sensor's output changes with magnetic field variations, making them ideal for contactless and reliable sensing in automotive, industrial, and electronic devices. Their durability, low power consumption, and non-contact nature contribute to their widespread use.
