Micronas announces the extension of its direct-angle Hall-effect sensor family HAL 37xy with its dual-die variant HAR 37xy. It integrates two fully automotive-qualified silicon dies in a single SOIC8 package for high-precision direct-angle and linear position measurements for the most demanding automotive and industrial applications. HAR 37xy sensors follow the trend of enabling true redundancy within a small […]
Dual Hall-effect Sensor Addresses Automotive Applications and More
When automotive engineers need a contactless sensor for measurements such as throttle position, pedal position and exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) position, Hall-effect technology is a frequent choice. With the HAR 24xy linear Hall-effect sensor family, Micronas integrates two automotive-qualified die into an ultra-thin (<1 mm) TSSOP14-1 package. The two stacked die enable high-precision redundant measurements and […]
Throttle Position Sensing Using Hall Effect Devices
A total of four Hall Effect sensors are used in Micronas’ throttle position demo as explained at Convergence 2010 by Jochen Seidler. The sensor could be a programmable sensor with a ratiomatic, linear output such as one from Micronas HAL 82x family. For more information on Micronas HAL 82x Hall Effect sensors, click here. To […]
