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 ...

The Vishay 34 PHE absolute position sensor provides 10-turn linear or rotary displacement sensing with a 3600° range.

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 ...

Featuring non-contacting Hall Effect technology, the Vishay Sfernice 34 PHE delivers linearity down to ±1% (full stroke), ...

Mobile gaming controllers can be hit or miss, and often that comes down to the feel and comfort of holding it, a problem which the Elo Vagabond controller is hoping to fix. Dubbed the controller ...

It is high enough that nintendo had to extend the warranty on them to cover stick drift. The potenciometers were smaller and had shorter throw which meant faster wear of a smaller area. All three ...

Why high-bandwidth current sensing is key for SiC and GaN power platforms. What are the main differences between magnetic current-sensing technologies? How Infineon’s latest Hall-based current sensor ...

SteelSeries is launching the latest version of the Apex Pro gaming keyboard line, the Apex Pro Gen 3, and it boasts new OmniPoint 3.0 switches that use Hall Effect sensors. These new switches, the ...
