Researchers have created “Smart Underwear,” a wearable device that measures flatulence by detecting hydrogen produced by gut microbes. Early tests suggest people may pass gas about 32 times a day—much ...

Zen digesters” rarely fart. “Hydrogen hyperproducers” fart a lot. Scientists are investigating what is typical.

Allegro MicroSystems is introducing the ACS37017, a Hall effect current sensor targeting power converters, EVs, industrial motor control and clean energy systems. The device integrates a stable, ...

Allegro’s ACS37200 200-A Hall current sensor slashes power dissipation with its 50-µΩ shunt, offering 1,400 V of isolation in a compact PSOF package for high-voltage systems. How the ACS37200’s 50-µΩ ...

If you read about Hall effect sensors — the usual way to detect and measure magnetic fields these days — it sounds deceptively simple. There’s a metal plate with current flowing across it in one ...

The technique is called high-side current sensing. However, measurements at that location are fraught with problems. Of primary concern is that the measurement is at main line voltage, a problem if ...

The MLX90296 contactless linear sensor combines digital flexibility, ultra low power consumption, adaptable polarity modes, and a space-saving form factor. Melexis has announced the MLX90296, a new ...

A Hall-effect sensor is a transducer that converts a magnetic field directly into a usable electrical voltage. It enables engineers to perform non-contact measurement of shaft rotation, detect the ...

While we expect Apple to unveil AirPods Pro 3 alongside iPhone 17 and Apple Watch Series 11 next week, there’s one new feature that may not be ready for showtime. An anonymous source claims in a tip ...

A giant anomalous Hall effect (AHE) has been observed in a nonmagnetic material for the first time, as reported by researchers from Japan. This surprising result was achieved using high-quality Cd 3 ...
