Component Highlight Hall Effect Sensors

Hall Effect Sensor A Hall-Effect Sensor is a type of transducer that creates an output voltage in the presence of a magnetic field

Hall Effect Sensor Uses: Magnetic Field Sensing Placed inside a DC current transformer, the magnitude of the magnetic field can be measured, and the current calculated Position Sensing Can be used to sense the presence of a magnetic object, with many applications
