Abstract
The subject technology is directed to encoder systems and methods. According to an embodiment, the subject technology provides a magnetic encoder that comprises a first magnet and a second magnet. The first magnet comprises a first pole pair and an opening. The second magnet comprises a second pole pair and is positioned inside the opening. The magnetic encoder further comprises a first sensor that is configured to detect and generate a first signal based on the magnetic flux orientation of the first magnet and a second sensor that is configured to detect and generate a second signal based on the magnetic flux orientation of the second magnet. To achieve this feat, the first magnet and second magnet are magnetized in two separate types of magnetization (e.g., diametrical or axial magnetization) to generate two separate types of magnetic flux orientations that could be detected via the two types of magnetic sensors.
