Hall sensor wiring / power

Post by go_ral »

Hello,

Hall sensor - three wires, ground, signal to the ecu and power suply.

My question - where do I find suitable power suply - it need to be 5v, right?

Cheers

Some Hall sensors are 12 volt and some are 5 volt. It's generally OK to power 5 volt models from the TPS VREF pin.
