<p>SIGNAL CONDITIONING CIRCUIT FOR MAGNETIC SENSING MEANS A signal conditioning circuit for the output of a magnetic position sensor is disclosed. The magnetic sensor generates a total output signal that increases as a function of the rotational velocity of the sensor with a spurious noise component that is a relatively constant percentage of the actual signal voltage over the speed range. In a preferred embodiment, the signal conditioning circuit discriminates between the noise component and the signal component by comparing the total signal to a variable threshold only after a positive going zero cross. The variable threshold is generated as a function of the peak amplitude of the total signal. In a second embodiment the signal conditioning circuit includes gain control means which varies the amplitude of the total input signal as a function of its peak to maintain the threshold above the noise component.</p> |
