== Hall Effect Sensor == | |||
A Hall Effect sensor such as the (Allegro) UGN3503UA Hall Effect Sensor http://www.jaycar.com.au/products_uploaded/ZD1902.pdf ($6ea.) can be used to measure magnetic fields. (The Allegro1302 http://www.alldatasheet.com/datasheet-pdf/pdf/120806/ALLEGRO/A1302EUA.html is an alternative to the Allegro3503). | |||
The sensor requires +5V, this is available from the XO's USB connectors. | |||

The sensor has an output of half supply voltage (2.5V) at zero magnetic field with a sensitivity of 1.3mV/Gauss. This makes it suitable for connection to the XO1.5 (input range 0.17 - 3.3V). For the XO1.0 (input range 0.4 - 1.85V ) a 2:1 voltage divider is necessary. | |||
