AA004-02E

The AA004-02E is an Analogue GMR Sensor that offer unique and unparalleled magnetic sensing capabilities. These sensors are characterized by high sensitivity to applied magnetic fields, excellent temperature stability and low power consumption. The unmatched versatility of these basic magnetic sensors makes them an excellent choice for a wide range of analogue sensing applications. The device uses NVE's patented GMR materials and on-chip flux concentrators to provide a directionally sensitive output signal. These sensors are sensitive in one direction in the plane of the IC, with a cosine-scaled falloff in sensitivity as the sensor is rotated away from the sensitive direction. The device also provides the same output for magnetic fields in the positive or negative direction along the axis of sensitivity (omnipolar output).

• Excellent sensitivity to applied magnetic fields
• Wide linear range of operation
• Near-zero voltage operation
