THIN ANGULAR
POSITION SENSOR
AN8 Series
Programmable, non-contact magnetic position sensors capable of continuous rotation
Features and Bene?ts
? Angular position with high tolerance for misalignment
? Provides non-contact angular position sensing and full 360 ° rotation
? 5 V DC ratiometric device.
? Linear output over speci?c angular rotation ranges available on request
? Sealed design exceeds IEC 60529 IP67 standard for immersion
? Performs with AS500106 standard magnetic carrier
? Sensor can be programmed for use with custom magnets
? Custom programming option for rising or falling output slope with
selectable offset, gain, clamp voltage
? PWM output option available for custom applications
? Provided with EMI/ESD protection to SAE J1113 standards
? No mechanical interface means no parts to wear out
Description
The sensor is applied by rotating a magnetic actuator close to the face
of the sensor. Output voltage varies with angular position of the magnet
relative to the sensor.
Optimal performance is achieved with Cherry’s AS500106 magnetic
actuator. Sensor kits including this standard magnet are available
Applications
? Throttle position sensor
? Replacement for smart bearings
? PRNDL switch for harsh environments
? Steer wheel position for drive by wire systems
? Pedal position sensor
