    Abstract: A sensor module may include a magnet with a magnetization in a first direction, and a sensor chip including a first sensing element and a second sensing element arranged on a plane defined by the sensor chip. The first direction may be substantially parallel to the main surface of the sensor chip. The first sensing element and the second sensing element may be sensitive to an in-plane component of a magnetic field along the first direction or may be sensitive to an in-plane component of the magnetic field perpendicular to the first direction. The first sensing element and the second sensing element may be positioned beyond an edge of the magnet along the first direction such that the first sensing element and the second sensing element protrude past the edge of the magnet along the first direction.

    Abstract: The present disclosure provides for techniques to improve the sensitivity of magnetic sensor systems. One embodiment of a magnetic sensor system includes a magnetic biasing body comprised of a hard magnetic material and including a recess therein. The recess corresponds to a magnetic flux guidance surface of the magnetic biasing body. The magnetic sensor system also includes a magnetic sensing element arranged in or proximate to the recess. A magnetic flux concentrator, which is made of a soft magnetic material, is disposed in the recess between the magnetic flux guidance surface and the magnetic sensing element. Other techniques are also described.

    Abstract: Magnetic position sensors, systems and methods are disclosed. In an embodiment, a position sensing system includes a magnetic field source; and a sensor module spaced apart from the magnetic field source, at least one of the magnetic field source or the sensor module configured to move relative to the other along a path, the sensor module configured to determine a position of the magnetic field source relative to the sensor module from a nonlinear function of a ratio of a first component of a magnetic field of the magnetic field source to a second component of the magnetic field of the magnetic field source.

    Abstract: A magnetic sensor device for determining a rotation speed, a direction of rotation, and/or a rotation angle of a magnetic component rotating about a rotation axis is provided. The magnetic sensor device includes a magnet being rotationally symmetrical with respect to a symmetry axis, wherein a recess is formed within the magnet along the symmetry axis. Further, the magnetic sensor device includes a first magnetic sensor element arranged within the recess and on the symmetry axis, and a second magnetic sensor element arranged within the recess and on the symmetry axis. The magnetic sensor device additionally includes an integrated circuit arranged within the recess and configured to determine the rotation speed, the direction of rotation, and/or the rotation angle of the magnetic component based on a first output signal of the first magnetic sensor element and a second output signal of the second magnetic sensor element.
