Designing with magnetic sensors: Low latency motor position

Learn about how AMR angle sensors can be used in high speed systems that require low noise and low latency such as an automotive steering wheel position sensor.

00:04:17|30 Apr 2025

AMR sensors are capable of detecting the direction of an input magnetic field which is helpful in applications such as electronic steering assemblies. The low noise and low latency output enables systems to dynamically track user input and provide accurate feedback in power steering controls. Testing the device with a magnet rotating at high speeds enables verification of device performance near the upper input frequency.
