Operating principle
When a common-magnetic field is applied through the
ZMT32 the 2 internal magneto-resistive bridges are
affected slightly differently due to their 45° rotation to
one another. This 45° rotation enables the ZMT32 to
determine angular position, of a rotating magnetic
field.
When a rotating magnetic field is applied to the ZMT32
it will output 2 sinusoidal voltages that are:
•
proportional to the field strength applied
•
proportional to the supply voltage applied,
•
rotating at twice the angular position
•
90° apart (as seen below).
By taking the arcTan of the ratio of V
O2
to V
O1
the
angular position of the magnetic field can be
determined.
