Application of Hall Effect Sensors in the Automotive Industry
Hall Effect sensors are commonly used to measure the strength of a magnetic field and the amount of current. Their applications include contactless sensing for linear movements, angular positioning, velocity, and rotational speed and direction, with the advantage of a long-term operation with low wear and tear. With their multiple sensing functions of movement and positioning, Hall Effect sensors in automotive applications can be widely observed in recent years. They have also become the third most common sensor product in…
