FEATURES AND FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
SensorDynamics innovative sensor technology allows the direct position sensing of a metallic target, hence eliminating the need of magnets. It also offers a high degree of flexibility in terms of the geometrical configurations that are possible, sensing range, electrical interfaces and operating environmental conditions.
The position sensor is Smart because it has built-in self diagnostics by continuously monitoring for internal failures. This enhances the system safety by driving outputs into a fail safe state. Also, self diagnostics eliminates the need of a plausibility check by the main ECU and the need of additional sensing elements to achieve a fail safe operation. To compensate for mechanical tolerances, a built-in self learning system can be implemented in firmware continuously learns the end stops and compensates for any system life-time variations.
