GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The ADA4571 is an anisotropic magnetoresistive (AMR) sensor
with integrated signal conditioning amplifiers and ADC drivers.
The ADA4571 produces two analog outputs that indicate the
angular position of the surrounding magnetic field.
The ADA4571 consists of two die within one package, an AMR
sensor, and a fixed gain (G = 40 nominally) instrumentation
amplifier. The ADA4571 delivers clean and amplified cosine
and sine output signals related to the angle of a rotating
magnetic field. The output voltage range is ratiometric to the
supply voltage.
The sensor contains two Wheatstone bridges, at a relative angle
of 45° to one another. A rotating magnetic field in the x-y
sensor plane delivers two sinusoidal output signals with the
double frequency of the angle (α) between sensor and magnetic
field direction. Within a homogeneous field in the x-y plane,
the output signals are independent of the physical placement in
the z direction (air gap).
