Abstract
An aspect of the present disclosure is drawn to an electronic switch module including: a housing having a chute; a plunger member moveably mounted within the chute so as to be able to move along a first axis with a first velocity; a magnet member disposed within the housing; a Hall sensor disposed within the housing; and a displacement mechanism disposed within the housing and operable to displace the magnet member along a second axis with a second velocity by a distance away from the Hall sensor, wherein the first velocity is greater than the second velocity, and wherein the Hall sensor is operable to output a signal associated with a first location of the plunger member along the first axis based on a second location of the magnet member along the second axis.
