Recently, there has been increasing demand for input devices with high operability to match advances in the functions and multiple functions of electronic equipment.
An input device with high operability is one that emulates certain human senses by producing analog output.
Here, we introduce an analog input slide device that uses a Hall element and is ideal for zooming camera lenses and scrolling screens, etc.

Slide device using Hall elements |
Advantages of using Hall elements in a slide device
| 1. |
Analog output of displacement of the input key can be obtained and high operability is achieved. |
| 2. |
It is possible to miniaturize and reduce the thickness of the control element. |
| 3. |
Durability is high because of non^'contact detection. |
| 4. |
Because magnetism is detected, it is more resistant to tiny particles of dirt, dust, or oil. |
|
Principle |
| When the magnet is inclined or moved sideways, the magnetic flux density penetrating two Hall elements changes, and output voltage proportional to the inclination and displacement of the magnet is obtained by reading the difference between the two output voltages. |
