A Hall effect switch operates based on the Hall effect, which occurs when a magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the flow of current in a conductor. When a magnetic field is present, it induces a voltage (Hall voltage) across the conductor, which can be detected by a sensor. This change in voltage signals the switch to either open or close a circuit, allowing it to control devices like motors or lights without any physical contact. Hall effect switches are commonly used in applications where reliable, non-contact switching is desired.

What is hall effect hall voltage?

The Hall effect is the production of a voltage difference (the Hall voltage) across an electrical conductor, transverse to an electric current in the conductor and a magnetic field perpendicular to the current. It was discovered by Edwin Hall in 1879


What digital multimeter scale should be used when testing the signal from a Hall-effect switch?

You should use the scale that shows correctly your supply voltage. Most Hall-effect switches provide either a logical output or an open-collector output. If the output is logical, you can expect the value to be between 0 and your supply voltage. If the output is open-collector, you must bias the output to your supply voltage with a resistor; otherwise you will always read "0". If biased, the output will be between 0 and the voltage bias. If you are not certain of which type you have, try finding the datasheet on the Internet; otherwise, you can always bias the output to your supply voltage; if you properly choose the resistor, it should not adversely affect the behaviour of the logical-level output. I would suggest trying 1 kOhm with a 5 V supply; this gives a bias current of 5 mA, which most Hall-effect sensors should be able to cope with. There are other Hall-effect sensors that provide linear output, but this answer is about a Hall-effect switch.

What exactly is a hall effect switch chiltons vaguely describes it being above the pick up coil in the distributor---you replaced the coil and saw no switch?

Often a pickup coil is mounted inside a distributor to detect the position of magnets on a star wheel. The hall effect switch can be part of the pickup coil or a separate solid state device immediately adjacent.

Where is the crank sensor on a 1976 Chevy Impala?

It is inside the distributor and is more commonly known as a distributor pickup, HEI pickup, pickup coil, hall switch, or hall effect sensor. I hope that helps.


What is the difference between ac Hall effect and dc Hall effect?

The AC Hall effect is used to measure the sign and magnitude of an alternating magnetic field, whereas the DC Hall effect is used to measure the sign and magnitude of a steady magnetic field. In AC Hall effect, the magnetic field changes direction periodically, while in DC Hall effect, the magnetic field is constant.


How do you check double pole wiring?

Double pole wiring is checked the same way as single pole wiring. When you turn the switch on and the device works, in effect the switch is checked.
