They give a proportionate output voltage (usually 1/2 Vcc when no field is present) The voltage will rise (a predictable amount based on field strength) when one pole of a magnet is brought near it, and it will drop when the other pole is presented. -- http://www.piclist.com PIC/SX FAQ & list archive View/change your membership options at http://mailman.mit.edu/mailman/listinfo/piclist
