3D magnetic sensor measures rotation and translation in many ways

Allegro has created a 3d magnetic sensor that can perform rotary and translation motion measurement both on-axis and off-axis (see diagram). Called A31315, it includes configurable signal processing, linearisation and angle calculation allows it to resolve the absolute rotary or linear position of a moving magnetic target. It has “excellent native angle error over temperature in any ...
