Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
An extended range position sensor system includes a first set of spaced-apart magnets, a first sensor, a second set of spaced-apart magnets, a second sensor, and a processor. The first sensor is associated with and is movable relative to the first set of magnets, and is configured to generate a first sensor output signal in response to relative movement between the first sensor and the first set of magnets. The second sensor is associated with and is movable relative to the second set of magnets, and is configured to generate a second sensor output signal in response to relative movement between the second sensor and the second set of magnets. The processor is coupled to receive the first and second sensor output signals and is configured, in response thereto, to generate a position signal.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. A position sensor system, comprising: a first set of magnets, each magnet in the first set of magnets spaced apart from at least one other magnet in the first set of magnets by a first linear distance; a first sensor associated with and movable relative to the first set of magnets, the first sensor configured to sense a preset linear distance and generate a first sensor linear output signal in response to relative linear movement between the first sensor a…
