Calculate RPM with Hall effect Sensor

Image
How does it work? The Hall Effect sensor works on the principle of Hall Effect. According to which, whenever a magnetic field is applied in a direction perpendicular to the flow of electric current in a conductor, a potential difference is induced. This voltage can thus be used to detect whether the sensor is in the proximity of a magnet or not. The arduino can detect this voltage change through its interrupt pin and determine whether the magnet is near the sensor or not. The basic working of the Arduino hall effect sensor can be described as shown: Hall effect sensors have three pins: VCC(5V), GND and Vout(Signal). The pin out of a hall effect sensor is as shown above. Step 1: Connections for the Arduino Hall Effect Sensor Interfacing the hall effect sensor with Arduino is really simple. The VCC of the sensor is connected to Arduino’s 5V power pin. The GND of the sensor is connected to the GND pin of Arduino. And the Vout or Signal pin of the hall effect sensor is

Car Electrical Wire Codes

Wire colors in your car might be different than colors described here. Use the given colors for reference purposes only. Always test wires to make sure they are correct. We are not responsible for any misprints. To check hot, ignition, lights, dimmer, use a test light or voltmeter. To check speakers use test radio. To check speaker polarity (assuming you don’t have a polarity tester): Touch (for a very short period of time) one wire to the positive side of a 1.5-volt battery (any size), and the other wire to the negative side. If speaker “pops out”, then polarity is correct. If speaker “pops in” then polarity is reversed. Make sure that the wires you are going to check for speakers do not have any power.
