This slide describes how the RTY series hall-effect rotary position sensors sense rotary movement. The RTY series hall-effect rotary position sensors use a magnetically biased, hall-effect integrated circuit (IC) to sense rotary movement of the actuator shaft over a set operating range. Rotation of the actuator shaft changes a magnet’s position relative to the IC. The resulting flux density change is converted to a linear output. The IC, together with conditioning and protection circuitry, and the permanent magnet, is sealed in an IP67 qualified rugged package for durability in most harsh environments.
