The A1354 programmable two-wire Hall-effect linear sensor features a PWM output. The duty cycle of the PWM output signal is proportional to an applied magnetic field. The A1354 converts an analog ...

The Hall Effect provides the capability for several non-contact magnet measurements. From speed and direction to current sensing, application requirements have driven suppliers to develop products ...

Recently, I’ve been working on a solar off-grid monitoring system. In the system are a few split-core Hall effect sensors to monitor DC current in the solar panel current, the battery charge current, ...

Sensing current, especially in higher-voltage settings, is often a challenge. It’s generally more difficult than voltage sensing, as it is usually “invasive” and requires “breaking” into 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 ...

Current sensing is on a trajectory to intersect with the global high-voltage trend of robust, high-performing systems. Discover the tradeoffs between isolated shunt-based, closed-loop Hall-effect, and ...

The programming unit interfaces between a PC and BEI hall effect sensors and enables field program output functions that meet specific requirements. The PHD can be used for both analog and PWM outputs ...

Melexis has brought out a linear Hall-effect sensor that draws less than 5 µA at 100 Hz and integrates digital filters for enhanced performance. Its flexible architecture is available in multiple ...
