Abstract
A device for determining an encoder magnet rotation angle is provided, wherein the device includes an encoder magnet and a number of n greater than or equal to two magnet sensors. The magnetic field includes a plurality of plane-parallel magnetic field planes, wherein a surface normal of the plane-parallel magnetic field planes is parallel to an encoder magnet rotation axis. The magnetic field further includes a plurality of magnetic field vectors in the plane-parallel magnetic field planes. The two magnet sensors are in at least one of the plane-parallel magnetic field planes, wherein a first magnetic field vector has a first angle at a position of a first magnet sensor, and wherein a number n−1 of further ones of the magnet sensors are arranged at positions in the magnetic field whose magnetic field vectors have an angle which satisfies the equation wherein 1<i≤n.
