Magneto-resistive sensors

Magneto-resistive sensors are characterised by the fact that they can detect very small magnetic fields (1-5 mT). The MR 10 sensor has two digital outputs, which operate at 1.5 mT and 3.5 mT. The internal clock (10~20Hz clock frequency) leads to low power consumption so that operation in batterypowered devices is feasible. This device can, for example, recognise two positions of the magnet using only one sensor.
