Abstract

A magnetic-field (MF) sensor, including: a chip having first, second and third MF measuring-elements (ME) to output first, second and third MF signals, amplitudes of which are proportional to a MF emanating from a rotating-object (RO), in which directions of the normal vectors of the MF MEs are linearly independent; a signal acquisition unit to determine first/second differential-signals (DS), in which the first DS is based on a difference between the MF signals of the first and second MF MEs, and in which the second DS is based on a difference between the MF signals of the first/third MF MEs, and in which the signal acquisition unit is configured to determine a combined signal from the MF signal of the first MF ME and the first/second DS; and an evaluation unit to generate an output signal, which contains a speed and direction of motion of the RO.
