Abstract
A method of performing active shielding of an electronic device from a magnetic field having a first flux, using a circuit; having the steps of: measuring, using a Hall effect sensor, a first magnitude and a first direction of the first flux; creating an output voltage equal to the first magnitude; feeding the output voltage to a differential amplifier; amplifying the output voltage to create an amplified output; comparing, using an error amplifier, the amplified output to a reference voltage to determine an error voltage; feeding the error voltage to an electric power switching circuit; generating a switching waveform based on the error voltage; feeding the switching waveform as an input to a driver module; creating, based on the input, a current having amplitude equaling the first magnitude and a second direction opposite of the first direction, such that a second flux is created to cancel the first flux.
