Abstract
Magnetic field sensor having a magnetic field sensor element and at least a band-shaped electrical contact element, in which the at least one contact element has at least one undercut section to fix in spatially form-fitting manner the magnetic field sensor at a support during the at least sectional injection molding process with a plastic material. Magnetic field sensor module, the magnetic field sensor module comprising a support with at least a fixing section for a magnetic field sensor and a plastic injection molding, wherein the magnetic field sensor module has at least such a magnetic field sensor and the magnetic field sensor is spatially fixed in form-fitting manner with its at least one undercut section at the at least one fixing section of the support and is injection molded with plastic material at least in sections, and a method for producing such a magnetic field sensor module, wherein the method comprises the following steps: correctly positioned arrangement of the at least one magnetic field sensor at the support, wherein the at least one magnetic field sensor with its at least one undercut section is arranged at the at least one fixing section, which has not yet been reshaped; reshaping the at least one fixing section to fix in spatially form-fitting manner the at least one magnetic field sensor at the support; injection molding the support at least in sections and/or the magnetic field sensor with plastic material.
