Abstract

A magnetic sensor includes a first bridge circuit including a plurality of magnetic field sensor elements, each configured to generate a sensor signal in response to the magnetic field impinging thereon. The first bridge circuit is configured to generate a first differential signal based on sensor signals generated by the plurality of magnetic field sensor elements. The plurality of magnetic field sensor elements include a first, second, and third group of sensor elements. The first group is arranged at center region of the magnetic sensor, the second group is arranged at a first side region of the magnetic sensor and are displaced a first distance from the first group, and the third group is arranged at a second side region of the magnetic sensor, opposite to the first side region, and is displaced a second distance from the first group that is substantially equal to the first distance.
