Recently, [Solder Hub] put together a brief video that demonstrates the basics of a Hall Effect sensor — in this case, one salvaged from an old CPU fan. Two LEDs, a 100 ohm resistor, and a 3.7 volt ...

Hall effect sensors are everywhere right now. Keyboards, game controllers, and DIY kits use them for more precise inputs. But with any newly popular device, it can be easy to immediately jump onto the ...

If you read about Hall effect sensors — the usual way to detect and measure magnetic fields these days — it sounds ...

I’m admittedly not huge Switch fan, but my kids are - we have 1 original and 2 lites in our household. But as more details arise, the Switch 2 is less and less compelling. Let’s call it $500 (trariff ...

When operating industrial machinery, precision and accuracy are vital to a productive and safe working environment. Commonly, joysticks are used to aid in the maneuvering of heavy equipment for a ...

Insight on Diodes Inc.’s first automotive-compliant 3D linear Hall-effect sensor. How it allows for reliable and high-precision contactless rotary motion and proximity detection. Application targets ...

It's all about the relative failure rate. My understanding is that drift can and does happen on pretty much any non-Hall joystick, but that the Switch Joy-Cons were ...
