Allegro Microsystems, LLC rolled out the A1266, a unique 3D omnipolar magnetic sensor IC integrating a combination of vertical and traditional planar Hall-effect sensor ICs that can detect magnetic ...

The characteristics of magnetic actuators and their sensors when they're first energized can usually be ignored, except in applications requiring speedy response. Magnetic actuators and sensors are ...

While most sensors that surround us and make modern technology possible are well-known and understood, magnetic sensors used in magnetometers are often overlooked or misunderstood, even though they’re ...

Texas Instruments has introduced the TMAG5134 Hall-effect switch, designed to provide enhanced sensitivity for ...

Transistors, the building blocks of modern electronics, are typically made of silicon. Because it's a semiconductor, this material can control the flow of electricity in a circuit. But silicon has ...

Quantum tech is going green. A new take on highly sensitive magnetic field sensors ditches the power-hungry lasers that previous devices have relied on to make their measurements and replaces them ...

Scientists have developed a high-resolution magnetic line camera to measure magnetic fields in real time. Field lines in magnetic systems such as generators or motors, which are invisible to the human ...
