The A139x family, released by Allegro since 2005, is a Hall-effect sensor IC family that has only 10 mW power consumption in the active mode with tri-state output and user-selectable sleep mode. A ...

Measuring a magnetic field can be very easy with some pretty low tech, or it can be very high tech. It just depends on what kind of measurement you need and how much effort you want to expend. The ...

Current sensing is on a trajectory to intersect with the global high-voltage trend of robust, high-performing systems. Discover the tradeoffs between isolated shunt-based, closed-loop Hall-effect, and ...
