Embodiments relate to sensors, such as speed sensors and angle sensors, that use a modulated supply voltage to approximately double output signals of the sensors because the sensor element and the supply voltage exhibit the same frequency. In embodiments, the sensor element is an xMR element, and the modulated supply voltage is generated on-chip, such as by another xMR element. Direct frequency doubling of the output signal of the sensor element therefore can be obtained without additional and complex circuitry or signal processing.
