A sensor system may include an object, a magnet, and a magnetic sensor. The magnet may be connected to the object such that a center of the magnet is offset from an axis of the object. The magnetic sensor may include a first three-dimensional (3D) sensing pixel and a second 3D sensing pixel. The magnetic sensor may be arranged such that the first 3D sensing pixel and the second 3D sensing pixel are at different distances from a tilt point of the object. The magnetic sensor may be arranged such that the first 3D sensing pixel and the second 3D sensing pixel are at different distances from the center of the magnet.

Stray field robust magnetic sensor system for detecting a state of a tiltable and rotatable object

An exemplary embodiment of a sensor system includes a magnet system which is designed to generate a magnetic field. Furthermore, the sensor system includes a first magnetic field sensor which is movable in a first direction relative to the magnet system and has a first distance from the magnet system in a second direction perpendicular to the first direction. The sensor system also includes a second magnetic field sensor which is movable in the first direction relative to the magnet system and has a second distance from the magnet system in the second direction, the second distance being greater than the first distance.

Sensor systems, method for determining a position of a magnet system, an operating unit, and a computer program

A busbar for current transport comprises conductive material, which extends along a current direction. A recess for a magnetic field sensor extends into the conductive material, a middle of the recess being shifted by a predetermined distance from a middle of the conductive material in the direction of an edge of the conductive material, so that, within a frequency range, a frequency dependency of a magnetic field, which is induced by an alternating current flowing along the current direction, is reduced in comparison with a busbar having a central recess.

Busbar and power module with busbar

A component carrier with an integrated magnetic field sensor is disclosed. The component carrier includes a plurality of electrically conductive layer structures and/or electrically insulating layer structures; an excitation coil and sensor coils arranged on and/or in the layer structures; a first magnetic structure above the excitation coil and sensor coils; and a second magnetic structure below the excitation coil and sensor coils.

Component carrier with integrated flux gate sensor

A magnetic sensor may include a set of elements to detect a set of magnetic field strengths of a magnetic field generated by a magnet, and determine, based on the set of magnetic field strengths, a state of an object with respect to multiple degrees of freedom of object movement. The magnet may be connected to the object such that a center of the magnet is offset from an axis of rotation of the object and such that the magnet is angled with respect to a direction that is substantially perpendicular to the axis of rotation when the object is in an un-tilted position. The magnetic sensor may be substantially centered on the axis of rotation of the object when the object is in the un-tilted position.
