Overview:
This is a Grove interface compatible Magnetic switch module. It is based on the encapsulated dry reed switch CT10. The CT10 is single-pole, single throw (SPST) type, having normally open ruthenium contacts. The sensor is a double-ended type and may be actuated with an electromagnet, a permanent magnet or a combinationof both. This magnetic switch is a wonder tool for designers who would like to turn a circuit on and off based on proximity.
