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 ...

As systems extend and expand the exploitation of the latest power semiconductors (IGBTs, MCTs, etc.) that manifest the very relentless advance in power output limits, a prerequisite (and parallel) ...

If you read about Hall effect sensors — the usual way to detect and measure magnetic fields these days — it sounds ...

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 ...

Allegro MicroSystems Inc. has introduced the ACS704 family of Hall-effect magnetic field sensors in SOIC8 packaging, with the current path integrated into the package for better sensitivity and ...

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 ...

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 ...

What Is The Hall Effect? Discovered by Edwin Hall in 1879, the Hall effect is a phenomenon when voltage (potential difference) is generated across a current-carrying conductor when it is placed in a ...

What is the Hall Effect? The Hall effect is a fundamental phenomenon in physics that occurs when an electric current flows through a conductor in the presence of a magnetic field perpendicular to the ...

An international research team has discovered the anomalous Hall effect in a collinear antiferromagnet. More strikingly, the anomalous Hall effect emerges from a non-Fermi liquid state, in which ...
