Operation
A semiconductor layer, through which current flows, immersed into a standard magnetic field
(lines of force perpendicular to the direction of the current), generates a potential difference
(known as “Hall” voltage) at its ends.
If the current intensity remains constant, the generated voltage will depend only on the
magnetic field intensity. Therefore, it is enough for the magnetic field intensity to vary
periodically in order to obtain a modulated electric signal, the frequency of which is
proportional to the speed by which the magnetic field changes. To obtain this change, the
sensor is periodically moved near by a tooth obtained on the inner side of the pulley.
