An electronic throttle control system is described where a throttle position sensor has multiple slopes depending on the operating region. At low throttle positions, a greater slope, and thus a greater sensitivity is provided, thereby increasing control resolution. At greater throttle positions, a lower slope, and thus lower sensitivity is provided. In this way, an output signal that varies across the entire operating region of the throttle is provided for monitoring and control, while improved performance at low throttle angles can be simultaneously achieved. A method of making the sensor is also described.
