Shiny, pretty and useful in electronics, gold has been prized by humans for millennia, but we’re not the only ones out there prospecting. Scientists from Australia’s CSIRO have now found a fungus species that mines for gold, and even decorates itself with the precious particles. Following the fungus could be a new, environmentally-friendly way to find large underground gold deposits.
 Common Design Pitfalls When Designing With Hall 2D Sensors And How To Avoid ThemSponsored by Texas Instruments This article discusses three widespread application issues in industrial and automotive end equipment – rotary encoding, in-plane magnetic sensing, and safety-critical – that can be solved more efficiently using devices with new features and higher performance. We will discuss in which end products these applications can be found and also provide a comparison with our traditional digital Hall-effect sensors showing how the new releases complement our existing portfolio.
