General Description
The KMT32B is a magnetic field sensor based on the anisotropic
magnetoresistance effect. The sensor contains two parallel
supplied Wheatstone bridges, which enclose a sensitive angle of
45 degrees.
A rotating magnetic field in the surface parallel to the chip (x-y
plane) will deliver two independent sinusoidal output signals, one
following a cos(2α) and the second following a sin(2α) function, α
being the angle between sensor and field direction (see Figure
1).
