Hi, I'm Bill. I'm a software developer with a passion for making and electronics. I do a lot of things and here is where I document my learning in order to be able to inspire other people to make ...

I've tested all the latest and greatest Hall effect gaming keyboards and narrowed the competition down to the four best models available this weekend.

Diodes is aiming at contactless rotary motion and proximity detection with a 3D Hall-effect magnetic field sensor. Automotive applications are envisaged, include infotainment rotary and push selectors ...

Diodes Incorporated today introduces its first automotive-compliant* 3 D linear Hall effect sensor. The AH4930Q detects the magnetic field in the X, Y, and Z directions, allowing for reliable and ...

Engadget has asked Nintendo why the company opted not to use Hall effect tech in the Joy-Con 2. We've also asked whether the Switch 2 Pro Controller foregoes Hall effect sensors as well.

Nintendo confirmed the Switch 2’s Joy-Cons don’t use Hall effect joysticks Nintendo of America says the Joy-Cons have been redesigned, but not with anti-drift Hall effect sensors.

Nintendo isn’t using anti-drift Hall effect sensors on Switch 2 joysticks But Nintendo promises "redesigned" Joy-Cons are "smoother" and "more durable." ...

I keep parsing this story title as implying that Hall effect sensors are the cause of stick drift, and that's the reason why the Switch 2 joysticks won't use the technology instead of the other ...

The NY Times gets hands-on with Nintendo Switch 2 and fuels speculation that Joy-Con stick drift has been solved by Hall Effect sensors.

Nintendo’s Alarmo uses the tech that could solve Joy-Con stick drift The dial control atop Alarmo uses a magnetic Hall effect sensor for improved accuracy and durability.

Hall-effect sensors can also be susceptible to magnetic interference, Mokhtari added, if they’re not properly shielded from magnets — which, by the way, Switch 2 Joy-Cons apparently use.
