Abstract: A magnetic sensor package comprising a magnetic multi-turn sensor die and a magnetic single turn sensor die, in which both sensor dies are packaged on the same lead frame. A method of manufacturing the magnetic sensor package is also provided. A magnetic sensor system comprising a rotating magnet and the magnetic sensor package, where the sensor package is arranged so that both sensor dies sit within a homogenous magnetic field, thereby ensuring that the output signal of each sensor is not corrupted by any stray fields.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides a linear actuator apparatus, magnetic sensor system and method of use for detecting a position of a component driven by a rotatable mechanism in a linear direction. A magnetic sensing device comprising both a multi-turn (MT) sensor and a single turn (ST) sensor is provided within the same semiconductor package and placed in the vicinity of the rotatable mechanism. A magnet is mounted on the rotatable mechanism, such that, as the mechanism rotates, a rotating magnetic field is generated. The MT sensor measures the number of turns of the rotating magnetic field, which is translated to the number of turns of the rotatable mechanism. The ST sensor measures the angle of the rotating magnetic field, which is translated to an angular position of the rotatable mechanism.

Abstract: Example magnetic sensor system includes a magnet mounted on a rotatable shaft, and a magnetic sensing device in a vicinity of the magnet. The magnetic sensing device includes an angle sensor configured to detect an orientation of a magnetic field generated by the magnet as the rotatable shaft is rotated, a magnetic multi-turn sensor configured to detect a number of turns of the magnetic field generated by the magnet as the rotatable shaft is rotated, a magnetic disk mounted on the rotatable shaft, wherein the disk comprises at least a first track for inducing a change in a magnetic field generated by the magnetic disk, wherein the first track is formed from a plurality of curved segments distributed around the circumference of the magnetic disk, and a first incremental sensor configured to detect changes in the magnetic field induced by the first track as the rotatable shaft is rotated.

Abstract: This invention relates to methods of preventing and treating hypoxic-ischemic injury and the consequences of that condition in the newborn utilizing a class of drugs known as the gap junction blockers. The invention provides a method for treating a preterm or term newborn infant with suspected or diagnosed hypoxic-ischemic injury with a gap junction blocker either before or after delivery. The present invention also provides a method for preventing seizures in term or preterm newborn infants. A method for treating and preventing the consequences of head injury is also described.
