Latch & Switch sensors
Latch and switch devices rely on the principles of the Hall-effect to, through the position of a magnet, determine the physical position of an object. These on-off switching devices are very common in automotive applications such as braking, shifter applications, door locks or seat belts. However, they are equally valuable to ensure the door of a washing machine is closed, BLDC motor commutation or ensuring that a safety interlock is in place on an industrial machine.
