Integrated Anisotropic Magneto Resistance (AMR) magnetic sensors are advanced devices that leverage the anisotropic magnetoresistance effect, where the electrical resistance of a material changes in response to an external magnetic field. These sensors are integrated into various systems to provide precise magnetic field measurements. These materials have different electrical resistances depending on the direction of the magnetic field relative to the current flow. The Anisotropic Magneto Resistance (AMR) effect occurs when the electrical resistance of a material changes in response to an external magnetic field.

TSC Magnetic Sensor portfolio is comprehensive and positioned to meet the demands of today‘s electronic devices, offering different kinds of operation modes, e.g., Latch, Linear, Omni-polar, and Uni-polar. For example, The TSHA2101 is produced with SIP (System in Package) technology, which builds AMR sensor & ASIC in one IC. It supports both 2-wire & 3-wire applications for cylinder position detection. When combined with a magnet, it becomes a non-contact switch with low power consumption, high sensitivity and high-reliability device. A horizontal magnetic field parallel to the electrode of the package can be detected by an arbitrary polarity. TSHA2101 can be used in both pull-up load and pull-down load applications.
