Abstract
Various embodiments provide a triaxial magnetic sensor, formed on or in a substrate of semiconductor material having a surface that includes a sensing portion and at least one first and one second sensing wall, which are not coplanar to each other. The sensing portion and the first sensing wall form a first solid angle, the sensing portion and the second sensing wall form a second solid angle, and the first sensing wall and the second sensing wall form a third solid angle. A first Hall-effect magnetic sensor extends at least partially over the sensing portion, a second Hall-effect magnetic sensor extends at least partially over the first sensing wall, and a third Hall-effect magnetic sensor extends at least partially over the second sensing wall.
