Hall-effect sensors exploit the transverse voltage generated when a constant current passes through a semiconductor in the presence of a magnetic field. Integration of these devices in standard CMOS ...

Competitive gamers look for every advantage they can get, and that drive has spawned some of the zaniest gaming peripherals under the sun. There are plenty of hardware components that actually offer ...

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 ...

TI’s TMAG5134 Hall-effect switch features an integrated magnetic concentrator, enabling it to detect magnetic fields as weak as 1mT. This level of sensitivity allows for the use of smaller magnets, ...
