  • Method and apparatus for magnetically sensing the position of a magnetic target
    Patent number: 10859399
    Abstract: A magnetic sensing apparatus for sensing and tracking the position of a target that is independent of the rotation of the target about the magnetic sensing elements. The apparatus provides increased resolution and increased sensor element to sensor element spacing. Also, the apparatus reduces the susceptibility to external interference from interaction with external magnetic fields.
    Type: Grant
