KY-003 Hall Magnetic Sensor Module

The KY-003 Module is a 3144EUA-S Hall Magnetic Sensor Switch that turns itself ON or OFF in the presence of a magnetic field. This module is compatible with a microcontroller like Arduino, Raspberry Pi and ESP32. Module KY-003 is capable of measuring wheel RPM, detecting the poles of magnets in BLDC Motors, a position sensor for machining tools, positional feedback for control systems, etc.

Here, you will get detailed information about this hall magnetic sensor module circuit board, like specifications, pinout, circuit & connection diagram, and how to interface with Arduino.

KY-003 Module Interfacing with Arduino

Connection diagram of the KY-003 hall magnetic sensor module with an Arduino is shown below.

Connect the power pin (middle) and ground pin (-) of the ky-003 module to +5V and GND on the Arduino, respectively. The module signal pin (s) connect to digital pin 3 on the Arduino.

Arduino Source Code

The following Arduino sketch for the KY-003 Hall Magnetic Sensor Module.

Set the LED on Arduino pin 13 as the output and the signal pin of the KY-003 module as the input. Using this interface, the LED will turn on when you place a magnet near the sensor.

int led = 13; // Define LED on Arduino interface
int sensor = 3; // Define KY-003 module interface
int val; // Define a numeric (boolean) variable val
void setup()
{
	pinMode(led, OUTPUT); // Set Arduino LED pin as output
	pinMode(sensor, INPUT); // Set KY-003 module signal pin as input
}
// Start the main program loop
void loop()
{
	val = digitalRead(sensor); // Read the KY-003 hall magnetic sensor module
	if(val == LOW) // when magnetic field is detected by the module, turn LED ON
	{
		digitalWrite(Led, HIGH);
	}
	else
	{
		digitalWrite(Led, LOW);
	}
}
