Power a Hall Effect Sensor

[DavisC]

So I recently made a circuit that had a hall effect sensor on it (includes a led for feedback) and then I tested it to a greater extent by connecting it up to an Arduino to read the Analog value. But because of the results from a test using a batter for power, i was concerned about the power source to the circuit being regulated enough to provide stable feedback.

With this being said, what would be the best (most regulated) way to power the sensor board?

Thanks,
Davis C

What voltage do you need? The 5v supply from the Digital Sidecar ought to be pretty stable.

[DavisC]

Yea, 5V is all it needs.
So I would have power to the Digital Side Car and then the signal wire to the Analog Breakout on the cRIO?

The 5v on the analog breakout is also regulated.
