iSentek IST8210 is a magnetic angle sensor with dimensions of 3.8 × 4.9 × 1.75 mm3 in 8-pin SO8 packaging and 2.0 × 2.0 × 0.75 mm3 in DFN packaging. The sensor comprises two independent full Wheatstone bridges based on anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR) effect.
The sensor detects the direction of the rotating magnetic field in the sensor plane, generating two sinusoidal output signals reflecting the angle θ between the sensor and the direction of the magnetic field. The function of the two outputs corresponding to the rotating field is Sin(2θ) and Cos(2θ).
