Magnetic field sensor
Preliminary specification
KM110B/2
DESCRIPTION
The KM110B/2 is a sensitive magnetic field sensor,
employing the magnetoresistive effect in thin-film
permalloy. A Ferroxdure FXD100 magnet mounted on the
back of the sensor package provides an auxiliary field of
3.6 kA/m in the x-direction of the sensor.
Typical applications for the KM110B/2 are current
measurement, linear position measurement, rotational
speed detection of magnetic pole wheels as well as
magnetic field measurement. The sensor can be operated
at any frequency between DC and 1 MHz.
