Abstract:
A tracking system that includes a sensor and a current driver. The sensor includes a substrate and magnetic sensor components configured to sense one or more magnetic fields and provide signals corresponding to the one or more magnetic fields. The magnetic sensor components are on the substrate and the substrate includes one or more conductive paths connected to one or more of the magnetic sensor components and intersecting one or more footprints of the magnetic sensor components. The current driver is configured to provide a regulated current to the one or more conductive paths intersecting the one or more footprints of the magnetic sensor components.
