Philips Semiconductors Product specification
Magnetic field sensor KMZ10C
DESCRIPTION
The KMZ10C is a magnetic field sensor, employing the
magnetoresistive effect of thin-film permalloy. Its
properties enable this sensor to be used in a wide range of
applications for current and field measurement, revolution
counters, angular or linear position measurement and
proximity detectors, etc.
