Frequently Asked Questions

What is the A1266 used for?

The A1266 can be used also to measure the density of current carriers, their freedom of movement, or mobility, as well as to detect the presence of a current on a magnetic field.

How does A1266 Hall Effect switch work?

A1266 Hall Effect switch turns on in the presence of a magnetic field and turns off when the magnet is removed. A Hall Effect latch turns on (closes) when a positive magnetic field is applied and remains on even when the magnet is removed.

How do you check Hall Effect switch?

Place a magnet near the Hall Effect switch. If the LED lights up and responds to the magnet, then you have a working switch. Note: If the battery is low, and is supplying less than 5 V DC, the Hall Effect switch will stay “ON” all the time or won't work at all.
