The KMA36 is a universal magnetic encoder from Measurement Specialties for precise rotational or linear measurement.

  • Features a system-on-chip technology that combines a magnetoresistive element along with analog to digital converter and signal processing in a standard small package
  • Anisotropic Magnetoresistive (AMR) technology determines contactlessly the magnetic angle of an external magnet over 360°
  • Incremental position on a magnetic pole strip with 5 mm pole length can be detected via AMR technology
  • Sleep and low power mode, as well as automatic wake-up over I2C, make well suited for battery applications
  • Position data can be transmitted using PWM or two-wire (SDA, SCL) communication bus
  • Programmable parameters allow user to access wide range of configurations to ensure maximum freedom and functionalities
  • Can be used as both a linear position sensor or a rotary position sensor
  • Insensitive to magnetic drift due to mechanical tolerances, changes in temperature or thermal stress
  • Not susceptible to external noise
  • Programmable resolution up to 13 bit (0.04 degree)
