The two hall effect sensors are 2.2mm apart. That means they are close to 1/3rd of your gear pitch apart.

It is easy to MAKE a gear touch sensor although not as easy as buying one. Get a 1/4" steel bolt and grind the end to a point. Write a bunch of magnet with around the bolt and place the printed end where it is almost in contact with the gear. The on the blunt end of the bolt place a powerful magnet (maybe salvaged from an old hard disk drive. Have you ever seen an electric guitar? Same exact thing. The wire will output a sinusoid wave that matches the gear teeth even if the ten are very small. -- Chris Albertson Redondo Beach, California ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Transform Data into Opportunity.
