Abstract
Systems, circuits, and methods provide self-calibration for magnetoresistance-based magnetic field sensors. Examples can include use of a closed loop acting as a feedback or calibration loop that is configured to process a reference signal applied to one or more magnetoresistance elements in a MR-based magnetic field sensor that also detects one or more external magnetic fields. The closed loop can adjust a bias voltage applied to the one or more magnetoresistance elements based on the reference signal. The calibration loop can accordingly provide for automatic or self-calibration of sensitivity of one or more magnetoresistance elements of the sensors to compensate for external factors affecting sensitivity of the one or more magnetoresistance elements.
