Applying most types of electronics in white-goods applications can be very challenging. From the operating temperatures seen in commercial ovens, to the need to address 100% humidity concerns in ...

There are two sensor choices, reed and Hall-effect switches. They have many similarities but also significant differences, explains Martin Reizner. Demand for reed switches has risen significantly in ...

Regular magnets are an irreplaceable solution in many applications in the field of electromechanics. They are used in simple automation (door closing sensors), as well as in more elaborate systems, ...

Designed for applications where the available magnetic field is extremely low and/or the space limitations are a major design factor, the GR150 magnetic reed switch functions as a non-contact position ...

[Lucid Science] shows us how to make some simple reed switches. Reed switches are simple components that detect a magnetic field and can close or open a circuit once detected. While not really a thing ...

Just about everywhere you go, there’s a reed switch nearby that’s quietly going about its work. Reed switches are so ubiquitous that you’re probably never more than a few feet away from one at any ...

This file type includes high resolution graphics and schematics. Conventional magnetic reed relays provide excellent low-power characteristics combined with a low level of electrostatic discharge (ESD ...
