DESCRIPTION
The KMT32B is a magnetic field sensor based on the anisotropic magneto resistance effect, i.e. it is sensing
the magnetic field direction independently on the magnetic field strength for applied field strengths
H>25 kA/m. The sensor contains two parallel supplied Wheatstone bridges, which enclose a sensitive angle
of 45 degrees.
A rotating magnetic field in the surface parallel to the chip (x-y plane) will therefore deliver two independent
sinusoidal output signals, one following a cos(2) and the second following a sin(2) function,  being the
angle between sensor and field direction (see Figure 2).
The KMT32B magnetic field sensor is suited for high precision angle measurement applications at a regular
field strength of H0 ≥ 25 kA/m (generated for example with magnet 67.044 from Magnetfabrik Bonn at a
distance of 5.2 mm at room temperature). With reduced accuracy, the sensor KMT32B may be used with a
field strength of H0 ≥ 14 kA/m (at room temperature; be aware of the influence of the earth magnetic field!).
Most magnets show a decreasing field strength with temperature while the magnetic field direction is
unchanged.
