TLE5x09A16(D) Analog AMR/GMR Angle Sensor Functional description 1 Functional description 1.1 General
The Magneto Resistive (MR) sensors are implemented using vertical integration. This means that the MR sensitive areas are integrated above the analog portion of the ICs. These MR elements change their resistance depending on the direction of the magnetic field. On each sensor, four individual MR elements are connected in a Wheatstone bridge arrangement. Each MR element senses one of two components of the applied magnetic field: • X componen t, V (cosine) or the x • Y componen t, V (sine) y The advantage of a full-bridge structure is that the amplitude of the MR signal is doubled and temperature effects cancel out.

, the arrows in the resistors symbolize the direction of the reference layer. The size of the sensitive areas is greatly exaggerated for better visualization. With the trigonometric function ARCTAN2, the true 360° angle value that is represented by the relation of X and Y signals can be calculated according to
Equation (1)
. α = arctan2(Vx,Vy) (1) The ARCTAN2 function is a microcontroller library function which resolves an angle within 360° using the x and y coordinates on a unit circle.
