Abstract
The concept described herein relates to a device and a method for determining the transfer function of an angle sensor in the course of operation. For this purpose, a sequence of angle output signals of the angle sensor is received during at least one time interval in which the angle sensor is exposed to a rotating magnetic field. Furthermore, the transfer function of the angle sensor is determined on the basis of the sequence of angle output signals. The method can be carried out during regular operation of the angle sensor.
