Abstract
Various examples include a target for inductive angular-position sensing and an inductive angular-position sensor including the same. The target has a target body comprising an inner circular ring around a center axis, and multiple fins formed with and extending radially from portions of the inner circular ring and equally radially spaced around the center axis. Respective ones of the multiple fins are formed as an arc band-shaped ring. In one or more examples, the respective ones of the multiple fins formed as the arc band-shaped ring provide a current path for an eddy current for the inductive angular-position sensing.
