Abstract: A switch device is presented. The switch device comprises a magnet supported such that it can be tilted, a transmitter device coupled to the magnet, designed to cause a tilting movement of the magnet in response to a switch actuation of the switch device, and a sensor device, having a first sensor element and a second sensor element for detecting the tilting movement, wherein the first sensor element is designed to acquire a plurality of first magnetic field values of a magnetic field shift of a magnetic field generated by the magnet caused by the tilting movement, and the second sensor element is designed to acquire a plurality of second magnetic field values of a second magnetic field shift of the magnetic field generated by the magnetic caused by the tilting movement.

Abstract: A magnetic field sensor apparatus (101) has a generator device which comprises at least two parts and which has at least two magnets (106, 108) for generating at least two magnetic fields (332, 334) and a detection device for detecting the magnetic fields (332, 334). The magnets (106, 108) of the generator device are arranged so as to be movable relative to one another and with respect to the detection device. The detection device has at least two sensors (110, 112) for generating at least two sensor signals which depend on the magnetic fields (332, 334). The sensors (110, 112) are arranged adjacent to one another in a detection area in an intersection area of the magnetic fields (332, 334) of the at least two magnets (106, 108).

Abstract: A magnetic field sensor consists of a transmitter device for producing a magnetic field and a detecting device for detecting the magnetic field. The transmitter device and the detecting device are arranged in such a way that they can move in relation to each other. The detecting device consists of a first sensor for producing a first sensor signal which is dependent on the magnetic field and a second sensor for producing a second sensor signal which is dependent on the magnetic field. The first sensor and the second sensor are arranged next to each other within the extension of a longitudinal axis of a detection range of a magnet in the transmitter device.
