CEATEC2013-06 e A4 (210mm×297mm) Position Sensor CEATEC2013-06 Sensor allows detection of distance and angle even in severe environments This sensor makes it possible to track travel distance and angle of a target object. As it utilizes the orientation of a magnetic field, highly accurate position determination can be realized. Features • Accurate measurement over a range of several tens of millimeters • Can be used in water, oil, or noisy environments. • Customization is also possible. Major Applications • Travel distance measurement for a moveable object • Angle detection for a rotating object Advantages Sample characteristics Detection method Hall IC + magnet Detection range + / - 15mm（depending on magnet shape) Error + / - 0.6mm（depending on magnet shape) Power supply voltage range 5.0 + / - 0.25V Output style Analog waveform10%Vcc∼90％Vcc(PWM possible) Air gap 2.5±1mm Operating temperature -40℃ ∼ +150℃ Storage temperature range -40℃ ∼ +150℃ Operating principle Operating principle Output voltage [％Vcc] 100 90 80 70 60 50 40 30 20 10 0 -15 Orientation of magnetic field generated by magnet is detected.
