Recent Developments:

In September 2025, Texas Instruments (TI) introduced the industry’s most sensitive in-plane Hall-effect switch for position sensing, offering engineers a cost-effective, user-friendly alternative to magnetoresistive sensors. TI’s TMAG5134 Hall-effect switch features an integrated a magnetic concentrator, enabling it to detect magnetic fields as weak as 1mT in applications such as door and window sensors, personal electronics, home appliances, and more. This level of sensitivity allows for the use of smaller magnets, further reducing system-level costs. Additionally, the TMAG5134’s in-plane sensing capability enables it to detect magnetic fields parallel or horizontal to a printed circuit board, giving engineers greater design flexibility.
In August 2025, Littelfuse, Inc., a diversified, industrial technology manufacturing company empowering a sustainable, connected, and safer world, announced the launch of two new TMR-based magnetic angle sensors - the LF53466 and LF53464 - designed to deliver high-precision 0–360° angular measurement in harsh environments with minimal thermal drift.
