Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
A sensor arrangement comprises at least a first magnetic-field sensor (SM 1 ) and a second magnetic-field sensor (SM 2 ). A signal-processing unit (PROC) is set up to determine a minimum signal (MIN) and a maximum signal (MAX) of the first or second magnetic-field sensor (SM 1 , SM 2 ) in the full scale range (FSR) of the sensor arrangement The first or second magnetic-field sensor (SM 1 , SM 2 ) can be selected by means of a selection means (MOV) depending on the minimum and maximum signal (MIN, MAX).
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
We claim: 1. A linear position detector, comprising: at least a first magnetic-field sensor and a second magnetic-field sensor, each generating respective sensor signals; a signal-processing unit configured to determine, during an initialization mode of operation, a minimum signal and a maximum signal for each of the first and second magnetic-field sensors over a full scale range of the linear position detector as a function of a magnetic-field source movable linearly between en…
