Angle sensor sensing relative position of two motor vehicle parts e.g. body and chassis

摘要

The angle sensor (10) produces a position dependent electric control signal with at least one magnet, to which at least one Hall sensor is assigned. The magnet and the Hall sensor are held rotatable relative to each other. The Hall sensor delivers an electric signal depending on the relative rotational angle between the two parts. The angle sensor includes an electronic correction unit (64), for matching the voltage signal to a control unit connectable at the angle sensor. The correction unit includes an analogue signal processing circuit (65), recording the voltage signal of the Hall sensor (54,44). Also a digital correction circuit (66), prepares depending on the respective rotation a correction voltage, for coupling in to the analogue signal processing circuit (65).
