General
The TMR40XX magnetic geartooth sensors utilize a unique push-pull Wheatstone
bridge design, including one or two Wheatstone full bridges, with four or eight
unshielded high sensitivity TMR sensing elements. The Wheatstone bridge creates a
differential voltage output with respect to the magnetic field gradient along the
sensor’s sensitive direction. In the dual-bridge configuration, the two orthogonal
Wheatstone full bridges provide sine and cosine voltage signals that can be used to
measure both the gear tooth position and the direction of motion. The TMR40XX
magnetic geartooth sensors offer superior performance with high sensitivity to the
magnetic field gradient. They can detect very small changes in magnetic field, along
with good temperature stability of the output signal.
The TMR40XX magnetic gear tooth sensors are available in 14 different standard
spacings of 0.25mm、0.4mm、0.50mm、0.6mm、0.75mm、0.8mm、1.0mm、1.2mm、
1.4mm、1.6mm、1.8mm、2.0mm、3.0mm and 4.0mm.
Two types of small form factor LGA packages are available. The package dimensions are 3mm × 3mm ×
0.9mm and 3mm × 6mm × 0.9mm.
