When operating industrial machinery, precision and accuracy are vital to a productive and safe working environment. Commonly, joysticks are used to aid in the maneuvering of heavy equipment for a ...

DALLAS, Aug. 22, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Texas Instruments (TXN), a leader in advanced sensing technologies, today debuted new current sensors to help engineers simplify their designs while improving ...

The ongoing computerization of vehicle systems is leading to additional electronic control units (ECUs) and sensors to ensure effective control. So, Hall effect sensors are widely adopted for their ...

DUBLIN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--The "Global Current and Voltage Sensors Market (2024 Edition): Analysis By Technology Type (Hall Effect Technology, FluxGate Technology, Fiber Optic Technology, Others), By ...

It's all about the relative failure rate. My understanding is that drift can and does happen on pretty much any non-Hall joystick, but that the Switch Joy-Cons were particularly susceptible based on ...

I’m admittedly not huge Switch fan, but my kids are - we have 1 original and 2 lites in our household. But as more details arise, the Switch 2 is less and less compelling. Let’s call it $500 (trariff ...

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 ...

Tired of stick drift ruining your controllers? Here's what hall effect actually means and whether it's worth upgrading for ...

Controllers with Hall effect technology have been gaining ground in recent years, and for good reason. They offer greater precision and customization options than first-party gamepads, and the nature ...

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 ...

They're bigger and sturdier, but still not Hall Effect. Nintendo Switch 2, at least for now, will not incorporate one of the most-requested features users have wanted for years. If you're not already ...

Enlarging its portfolio of position-detecting sensors, Allegro MicroSystems Inc. has introduced a family of programmable, Hall-effect, linear sensors in miniature package options (see the Figure). The ...
