Overcurrent relays with inverse definite minimum time (IDMT) characteristics are widely used in power systems to protect electrical feeders and loads from ...

This post describes the preliminary results of a small Hall-Sensor module. This is widely known as KY-024 module. The KY-024 sensor module I got from an online retailer is inexpensive, and the ...

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 ...

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 ...

This paper introduces Hall-effect technology and then explores how it has been applied, in particular, differentiating between the primary types of Hall sensor ICs, and the highly differentiated range ...

Hall effect sensors are everywhere right now. Keyboards, game controllers, and DIY kits use them for more precise inputs. But with any newly popular device, it can be easy to immediately jump onto the ...

Sensing, in all its forms, is fundamental to so many applications. It invariably involves a material that acts as a transducer, to convert one property to another. In electronics, the sensing element ...

Miri is a creative writer with a passion for gaming and animation. She started gaming way back in 1994 on the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis and has been a console gamer ever since. She's currently a ...

The difference between Hall-effect sensors and Hall elements. Why Hall-effect sensors provide more than on and off information. How Hall-effect sensors can detect magnetic fields from an extended ...
