Magnetic Sensors
Triaxis Hall Effect Sensor - Triaxis® is Melexis’ trademarked term to describe an innovative magnetic sensor technology capable of 3 axis magnetic field measurement from a single sensor. Via our Triaxis® technology we are able to measure the position of a magnet very precisely. It can be used to measure rotational, linear and 3D displacement as well as sense current flowing in a wire.
