Descriptions

HMC1501 and HMC1512 are miniature surface mount sensors for linear, angular, or rotary displacement designed for magnetic saturating field sensing.

HMC1501 contains a single saturated-mode Wheatstone bridge sense element that creates an output voltage with respect to the direction of the magnetic flux passing over the sensor surface.

HMC1512 contains dual saturated-mode Wheatstone bridge elements co-located to provide an extended range of angular displacements.

Features

Absolute sensing, no indexing with exact position known.

Low Voltage operations(2.0V), compatible for battery powered applications.

Cost effective and space-efficient solutions for high volume OEM designs.

Wide Angular Range:HMC1501-Angular range of ±45° with <0.07° resolution;HMC1512- Angular range of ±90° with <0.05° resolution

Applications

Position Sensing

Rotary speed

Angle detection

Non-contact precision location measurement systems
