Great for beginners
Plug and play with most microcontroller boards. The built-in pull-up resistor saves time on prototyping. Excellent quality for the price point.

Perfect for RPM counting projects
I used this module to build a tachometer for my 3D printer fan. The response is instant and the output is clean. Very easy to interface with an Arduino Uno.

Essential component for robotics
Bought five of these for a line-following robot project using magnetic tape. They are consistent and robust. Highly recommended for students and makers.

Solid performance
Works well within the specified voltage range. I tested it at 5V and 12V with no issues. Just remember it's unipolar, so it only reacts to one pole of the magnet.

Reliable and compact
Small footprint makes it easy to fit into tight enclosures. I'm using it as a door open/close detector for a smart home project. No false triggers so far.

Good value, works as expected
The sensor triggers reliably with a standard neodymium magnet. The only minor issue is that the silk screen on the PCB is slightly faint, but the pinout is standard so it wasn't a big problem.
Q: Does this module work with 3.3V logic levels like the ESP32?
A: Yes, the module operates between 4.5V and 24V for power, but the digital output is compatible with 3.3V logic systems. Many users successfully connect it directly to ESP32 GPIO pins.
Q: Which magnetic pole triggers the sensor?
A: The A3144E is a unipolar switch. Typically, the South pole of a magnet facing the front of the sensor (the side with the chip) will trigger the output to go Low. Please test with your specific magnet orientation.
Q: What is the maximum current this sensor can switch?
A: This module is designed for signal processing, not high-power switching. The output current is limited (typically around 25mA). You should use a transistor or relay to drive higher loads like motors or bright lamps.
Q: Can I use this underwater?
A: The PCB itself is not waterproof or conformal coated. If you need to use it in wet environments, you must enclose the entire module in a waterproof housing while ensuring the magnet can still affect the sensor through the casing.
Q: Is there a built-in LED indicator on the board?
A: Yes, there is a small SMD LED on the module that lights up when the magnetic field is detected and the output switches to Low, providing visual feedback.
