Sensors are energy conversion devices. Sensors or transducers convert the physical world of light, pressure, temperature, flow, level, acceleration, force, etc. to electrical signals but generally ...

In today's consumer applications, sensors are increasingly being used to validate the user prior to accessing the equipment. For example, the increased popularity of fingerprint authentication sensors ...

This article is a technical document of Allegro’s Hall effect sensor integrated circuits, how these devices were built, and how Allegro use the Hall effect principle to develop these devices. It ...

CMOS current reference circuits play a critical role in modern integrated circuits by providing a stable and reproducible current source that remains unaffected by variations in supply voltage, ...

There are many cases where a power supply needs an internal current-limiter function, usually built using a current sensor, a control circuit, and a pass transistor. The current sensor itself can be a ...

Need a Hall sensor? A strip of copper, a strong magnet, and an LM358 are all you need to explore the Hall effect hands-on.
