(Feel free to move this topic if it belongs in a more appropriate location.)
I've been programming on my Arduino, and have ran into an odd problem with my Hall Effect Sensors (ratiometric, model A1302). By all accounts, they seem to work - a quick circuit featuring an LED dimmed and brightened appropriately when a neodymium magnet was moved further and closer from each sensor. However, when I attempt to integrate these sensors into my Arduino programs, they begin acting very strange. The most recent error involved a reading of 509, which seems about right for not having a magnet near it. However, when a magnet *is* placed near it... There is no change whatsoever. It continues to read 509, despite all attempts to fix the issue. Any ideas on how to fix this, or should I just get some new sensors?
