Hall-Sensor mit reduziertem Offset-Signal

摘要

The invention relates to a hall sensor (1) comprising two opposite-lying power supply contact electrodes (7a, 7c) between which an active region (5) is defined. Said electrodes are provided for generating a current flow through the active region. The inventive hall sensor also comprises two opposite-lying voltage tapping contact electrodes (7b, 7d) for tapping a hall voltage, whereby a section of each contact electrode facing the active region (5) is shaped in such a way that the interfering influence of the contacts on the offset-reducing effect of the spinning current operation is reduced.
