current flowing in the sheet and the magnetic flux density. A Hall effect sensor is made from silicon, and the Hall voltage produced in silicon is only a few microvolts per volt per gauss. Consequently, a high-gain amplifier is required to bring the signal from the Hall element to a useable range. Hall effect sensors integrate the amplifier into the same package as the sensor element. Hall effect sensors are available as sensors that produce an output pro- portional to the magnetic field, or as switches that change state when the mag- netic field exceeds a certain level. Analog Hall effect sensors are suited to applications where you need to know how close a magnet is to the sensor— such as sensing whether an oscillating arm is really moving. Hall effect switches are best for applications where you just need to know if a magnet is near the sensor, such as sensing whether a safety hood is closed or open.
minimal effect on the sensory characteristics contribute to the final development of sensory (Guerrero-Legarreta 2001). characteristics typical of cooked hams Boned hams are canned in special molds (Toldrá 2006b).
