MagAlpha™ MA800 8-Bit Contactless Angle Sensor

Monolithic Power Systems (MPS) MagAlpha™ MA800 8-Bit Contactless Angle Sensor is designed to replace analogic potentiometers or rotary switches. The MA800 Sensor detects the absolute angular position of a permanent magnet attached to a rotating shaft. Since the measurement is spatially confined, the user has flexibility in terms of magnet shapes and configurations. Typically, the MA800 is used with a diametrically magnetized cylinder of 3mm to 8mm in diameter.
