Position sensor provided in the form of a hall-effect sensor

摘要

A position sensor designed in the form of a Hall sensor with an elongated circuit substrate ( 32 ) in the form of a molded interconnect device (MID) which includes an elongated support element consisting of injection molded plastic material, which at its front end side ( 37 ) has a support face ( 36 ), which is so fitted with a sensor element constituted by a Hall plate ( 27 ) or comprising a Hall plate ( 27 ) that the plane of the Hall plate ( 27 ) is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the circuit substrate ( 32 ). The sensor element ( 26 ) is electrically contacted by means of printed wiring ( 35 ), such printed wiring being constituted by a structured metal layer applied to the support element ( 34 ).
