The Hall effect: how an in-plane switch increases sensitivity and lowers design cost
Devices with smart magnetic position sensors – door and window sensors, electronic smart locks (shown in Figure 1), laptops, earbuds, tablets, smartphones, and water and gas meters – all depend on smaller, more power-efficient switches. Magnetic switches often need to detect magnetic fields parallel or horizontal to the printed circuit board (PCB), a type of sensing orientation called in-plane.

PSDS 2025 Virtual | Session 3: Power Factor Correction (PFC) circuit basics (8 AM CST)
From laptop adapters to power tools, any application powered from the AC grid represents a complex load where the input current is not always in phase with the instantaneous line voltage. As such, the application consumes both real power as well as reactive power from the grid. The ratio between real, usable power (measured in watts) and the total real-plus-reactive power is known as the power factor. A power factor correction (PFC) circuit intentionally shapes the input current to be in phase with the instantaneous line voltage and minimizes the total apparent power consumed.
