Abstract

The Hall element is constructed from a thin sheet of conductive material with output connections perpendicular to the direction of current flow. Hall Effect devices are included in many products, ranging from computers to sewing machines, automobiles to aircraft, and machine tools to medical equipment. The paper deals with identification of the static characteristic of this sensor for i.e. dependence of the output voltage on permanent magnet distance from sensor. The result of measurement is application recommendation.
