Abstract

An arrangement for detecting the angular position of a rotatable component includes: a magnet, configured to generate a magnetic field, and a sensor assembly, configured to detect the magnetic field, and to supply therefrom an angle signal corresponding to the angular position of the component. The sensor assembly has a first sensor group, including a first magnetically sensitive element, a second magnetically sensitive element, and a third magnetically sensitive element, a second sensor group, having a fourth magnetically sensitive element, a fifth magnetically sensitive element, and a sixth magnetically sensitive element, and an evaluation unit, which is connected to each of the magnetically sensitive elements of the first sensor group and the magnetically sensitive elements of the second sensor group and supplies the angle signal corresponding to the angular position of the component.
