TT Electronics has been selected to supply Hallogic Hall-effect sensors from its Optek technology portfolio for integration into fan assemblies on NASA’s Dragonfly rotorcraft mission. The sensors will support a spacecraft subsystem requiring high reliability and consistency. The Hallogic OMH3075S is a high-reliability Hall-effect sensor designed for non-contact motion sensing and switching. It operates across a supply voltage range and temperature range of -55 °C to +150 °C. B and S versions are processed and screened to MIL-STD-883, with ESD Class 3B classification.

Dragonfly is a rotorcraft lander mission to Saturn’s largest moon, Titan. It is designed to conduct science across multiple locations, sampling surface materials, and observing geology and meteorology. The mission is managed by the Johns Hopkins Applied Physics Laboratory (APL) for NASA. Dragonfly is scheduled to launch in 2028 and reach Titan in 2034.
