Hall effect sensor - 480-5198-ND - Question

In summary, the conversation discusses how to use a hall effect sensor to control the on/off state of an LED. The solution proposed is to use a common-emitter NPN transistor stage to invert the output signal, which can be achieved by inputting the signal into the base through a resistor and having the inverted signal on the collector and associated output resistor. The conversation also mentions that a common-emitter NPN configuration is commonly used to invert a signal and suggests doing a search for a tutorial on NPN common-emitter inverter circuits. Additionally, the conversation asks for an explanation on how to calculate the values of R1 and R2 for the circuit.

Homework Statement


I am using the a hall effect sensor - model 480-5198-ND. I have tested this simple circuit using a LED and it is working. However, it is "ON" by default. Only when the magnet is near the hall effect sensor , it will be "OFF".

How do I make it such that it is OFF by default and ON only when the magnet is near the hall effect sensor?

The A in my diagram means that it is connected to the LED.
 
  • #3
Follow it with a common-emitter NPN transistor stage to invert the output signal. Does that make sense?
 
  • #4
Can I have some explanation why it is able to invert the signal?
 
  • #6
May I know how do I calculate the value of R1 and R2?
