Abstract: A magnetic sensor may include a comparator to receive a first signal indicating a strength of a magnetic field sensed by a first sensing component of the magnetic sensor, receive a second signal indicating a strength of a magnetic field sensed by a second sensing component of the magnetic sensor, perform an error check associated with the first sensing component and the second sensing component, the error check being performed based on the first signal and the second signal, and provide an indication of a result of the error check. The magnetic sensor may include a protocol encoder to receive the first signal, receive the indication of the result of the error check, and provide an output that includes the indication of the result of the error check.

Abstract: A combination module combines a subset of a plurality of successive data blocks to form a combination block. A cipher module encrypts the combination block to obtain an encrypted combination block. A processing module divides the encrypted combination block into a number of encrypted data segments and combines the number of encrypted data segments with the plurality of successive data blocks to produce a plurality of transmission packets. Each one of the number of encrypted data segments is transmitted less frequently than each one of the plurality of successive data blocks. A communication module outputs the plurality of transmission packets.
