1 Introduction

This slider attachement uses an N42 grade cylindrical magnet as a magnetic field source to demonstrate the ability of TMAG5170 to track linear motion of a nearby magnet. The magnet is glued into the slider object, which then may pass freely down the length of the slider track. Tracking Slide-By Displacement with Linear Hall-Effect Sensors (SBAA513).

Nylon components were selected as they are non-magnetic and will not interfere with the magnetic field and bond well when glued.
