The Honeywell HMC1501 and HMC1512 are miniature surface mount sensors for linear, angular, or rotary displacement designed for magnetic saturating field sensing. The HMC1501 contains a single saturated-mode Wheatstone bridge sense element that creates an output voltage with respect to the direction of the magnetic flux passing over the sensor surface. The HMC1512 contains dual saturated-mode Wheatstone bridge elements co-located to provide an extended range of angular displacements. Both sensor types are cost effective and space-efficient solutions for high volume OEM designs. Applications for the HMC15xx sensors include Position Sensing, Rotary speed and angle detection, and non-contact precision location measurement systems.
