AD105-00

Magnetic sensors - switches (solid state) are a type of electronic switch which uses a magnetic field to create a mechanical motion or electrical signal, such as changing the state of a switch or activating an alarm. The AD105-00 is a solid state magnetic sensor switch which uses the principles of Hall effect and magnetism to detect the presence of a magnetic field. This sensor is most commonly used in applications where it is necessary to detect the presence or absence of a magnetic field, such as monitoring alarms or controlling electric appliances.

Working Principle

The AD105-00 magnetic sensor uses the Hall effect to measure the strength of a magnetic field. The Hall effect is a physical phenomenon in which a voltage is altered when a magnetic field is applied perpendicularly to a conductor. This voltage is then amplified using an op-amp and used to generate a digital signal. The sensor is calibrated to determine the maximum field strength that is required for the sensor to switch on and off. It is also provided with a digital output, which can be configured for either an open drain or an open collector.

Applications

The AD105-00 magnetic sensor has a wide range of applications, from measuring the strength of magnetic fields, to making non-invasive contactless switches, and even controlling electric motors. It can be used for industrial applications such as monitoring machine equipment, or for consumer applications such as controlling keyless entry systems. It is also commonly used in security applications, such as motion detectors, door locks and vehicle immobilisers. Additionally, the AD105-00 can be used in medical equipment to monitor patient vital signs.

The AD105-00 is a versatile and reliable magnetic sensor, which can be used in many different applications. With its wide range of applications, it is becoming increasingly popular in the industrial and consumer markets. It is an ideal choice for anyone looking for a reliable and cost-effective way to measure or detect magnetic fields.
