Set up for magnet and hall effect probe

Set up for power distributor
|
The setup is fairly simple. We will start by setting up the power supply (A)
and the current reader (B).We will then set the MEMS stationed upside down
so that the experiment does not get tall. Then we will set the front of
the magnet (D) facing the MEMS (C) so that the magnetic field is facing the
MEMS and not opposing it. Since the MEMS is vector based it would work
either way the magnet is facing but having the magnetic field opposing
the MEMS would cause a weird graph. The distance between the magnet and
the MEMS is 4mm and is constant. When setting up the MEMS we will set
the amplification to low so that we can get more accurate data. The
materials used in the experiment were the voltage regulator, the current
reader, the MEMS, and the electromagnets.
