Description:
Magnetic sensors are crucial devices that measure the strength and direction of magnetic fields, whether generated by permanent magnets, electrical currents, or the Earth's natural geomagnetism. These sensors are capable of detecting incredibly weak magnetic fields, down to microgauss levels (µG), where 1 Gauss equals 10⁻⁴ Tesla. This sensitivity is vital for specialized applications like Nuclear Precession, Fiber Optic Magnetic Sensing, and Superconducting Quantum Interference Devices (SQUIDs), which demand precise measurements of minute magnetic variations.
Low-field magnetic sensors find extensive use in critical fields such as nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) imaging for medical diagnostics, where they enable detailed internal body scans. They also play a pivotal role in geophysical surveys, aiding in the exploration of mineral deposits and the study of Earth's magnetic field.
Beyond these highly specialized applications, magnetic sensors are ubiquitous in everyday technologies. Their advantages, including low cost, robustness, and reliability, make them ideal for a wide range of uses. Rotational speed and position sensing, essential for automotive systems, rely heavily on Hall effect sensors integrated with small permanent magnets. These sensors are fundamental to functions like ignition timing and anti-lock braking systems (ABS), ensuring vehicle safety and performance.
