ZMZ20
MAGNETIC FIELD SENSORS
DESCRIPTION
The ZMZ20 is an extremely sensitive magnetic field sensor in a 4 pin
E-Line package employing the magneto-resistive effects of thin film
Permalloy. It allows the measurement of magnetic fields or the detection
of metallic parts. The sensor consists of a chip covered with Permalloy
stripes which form a Wheatstone bridge, whose output voltage is
proportional to the magnetic field component Hy. A perpendicular field
Hx is necessary to suppress the hysteresis and this can be provided by
using a small permanent magnet.
FEATURES
•
Output voltage proportional to magnetic field Hy
•
Adjustment of sensitivity and suppression of
hysteresis by the auxiliary magnetic field Hx
effective
E-LINE
•
Magnetic fields vertical to the chip level are not
