Hall Effect Sensor Circuit

A hall effect sensor is used to trigger a timer ic.

Hall effect sensor circuit. The heart of every micro switch hall effect de vice is the integrated circuit chip that contains the hall element and the signal conditioning electronics. Based on the relation between hall voltage and magnetic flux density hall effect sensors are of two types. Resistor r1 acts as a positive bias for the for the input at pin 2. The working of this circuit is very simple.

Hall effect sensors are solid state magnetic sensor devices used as either magnetic switches or to measure magnetic fields. Forms a hall effect sensor. A sensor can be used to trigger a timer for a specific duty. When a magnetic source comes in close proximity to the hes it supplies a negative trigger pulse to the timer.

The hall effect sensor we will use in this circuit is an a1302 hall effect sensor manufactured by allegro. A hall effect sensor or simply hall sensor is a device to measure the magnitude of a magnetic field its output voltage is directly proportional to the magnetic field strength through it. The hall effect switch the hall effect latch and the ratiometric or analog output sensor. When the device is placed within a magnetic field the magnetic flux lines exert a force on the semiconductor material which deflects the charge carriers electrons and.

There are three basic types i m concerned with here. For more on the general operation see my you tube video above. We will then connect this ic to an arduino so that we the arduino can read the voltage output by the a1302 and we can display the readings to the computer screen. Frequently a hall sensor is combined with threshold detection so that it acts as and is.

Here two hall effect sensors are used to detect the north pole and the south pole of the magnet. In the linear sensor the output voltage is linearly related to magnetic flux density. This ic can detect magnetic fields. The hall effect sensor explained above can be quickly configured through a few external parts for converting magnetic field into electrical toggling pulses for controlling a load.

Hall effect sensors are used for proximity sensing positioning speed detection and current sensing applications. Hall effect sensors consist basically of a thin piece of rectangular p type semiconductor material such as gallium arsenide gaas indium antimonide insb or indium arsenide inas passing a continuous current through itself. Control a relay with arduino and hall effect sensor. The circuit diagram for the magnetic polarity detector is given below.

Applications of hall. Whenever the hall effect sensor is subjected to a magnetic field it toggles the relay as per the code. The circuit diagram for controlling a 5v relay module with hall effect sensor and arduino is shown below. We have previously interfaced hall sensor with arduino and raspberry pi and made few projects using hall sensor like digital speedometer magnetic door alarm etc.

Although the hall effect sensor is a magnetic field sensor it can be used as the principle component in many other types of sensing devices current temperature.
