Rotary Sensor

Hello,

I am looking for more technical detail design and calclulation based infromation about Rotary Sensor using magnetoresistors. It will be used with gear.

Thanks,
Bharundi
 

Re: Rotary Sensor

Hi

This is a technology that makes use of semiconductor type processes. The resistance of an element changes due to magnetic field strength.

The offerings form Honneywell and Philips Semiconductor appear to be about the same in capability.

Honeywell- Has extensive app notes on many aspects of these including the "setting" and "re-setting" circuits.

**broken link removed**

Philips Semiconductor - Has very little information on their magnetic field sensors

Leica has a 3 axis unit that is very accurate because it includes an inclinometer.

San Diego Magnetics - MR, GMR sensors for tape and a new type of magnetic card


Best Regards
Pendragon
