Abstract
A magnetic rotational position sensor including first and second magnets spaced apart to define an air gap and cooperating with one another to generate a magnetic field within the air gap extending along an axis of rotation. At least one magnetic flux sensor is positioned within the magnetic field and is operable to sense varying magnitudes of magnetic flux in response to relative rotational movement between the magnetic field and the magnetic flux sensor about the axis of rotation.
