smashtv Posted February 19, 2007 Report Share Posted February 19, 2007 Hi Triple-J!Your link is not working (that site is hard to link to)...These are quite cool. Its a standard IC package that will read the position of a small magnet rotated above it with very high resolution. Basically an encoder with no moving parts where it counts. ;)I don't know how well they would work mounted next to each other (conflicting magnetic fields)....I can dig up more info and spec sheets if anyone is interested, just reply in this thread.BestSmash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the application guide it says, that the magnets should be 0.5-5mm away from the chip (... and we're talking about neodym magnets).Greets, Roger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
