DESCRIPTION The SMART Position Sensor, 75 mm linear configuration, is a non-contacting sensing solution for linear absolute position sensing with enhanced speed and accuracy. It senses the position of a magnet relative to the sensor from 0 mm to 75 mm [0 in to 3.0 in]. Why is the SMART Position Sensor smart? SMART means that this is a sensor that can essentially think for itself. The SMART Position Sensor has the ability to self-calibrate because it uses a patented combination of an ASIC (Application-Specific Integrated Circuit) and an array of MR (magnetoresistive) sensors to accurately and reliably determine the position of a magnet attached to a moving object (e.g., elevator, valve, machinery, etc.) so that the object’s position can be determined. FEATURES Resolution of up to 16 bits provides enhanced accuracy Non-contacting technology can provide enhanced product The MR array measures the output of the MR sensors mounted along the magnet’s direction of travel. The output and the MR sensor sequence determine the nearest pair of MR sensors to the center of the magnet location. The output of these two MR sensors is then used to determine the position of the magnet between them. With this sensor, Honeywell has utilized MR technology through the ASIC at a level never before accomplished. Other configurations are in development.
