| 1993 | Invention patented by Bruno Murari, Sandro Storti, and Flavio Villa on September 29th, 1993. Abstract: For detecting the position of a magnetic element having a field component zeroing in at least one point in space, typically in a plane, a plurality of elementary Hall-effect sensors are integrated side by side and aligned in a direction perpendicular to the zeroing field component and to the current flowing through the elementary sensors. The elementary sensor generating a zero output voltage therefore indicates the zero position of the field component and consequently the position of the magnetic element with respect to the position sensor, so that The outputs of the elementary sensors provide a quantized numeric code indicating the position of the magnetic element. |
