5.46011.0440710, also known as Four-Wire Vector Hall Effect Sensor, is a kind of Hall effect sensor with two pins and four terminals. It can be widely used in automotive applications, such as gear position sensing for manual transmission and reversing light control, the detection of angular speed of crankshaft and camshaft rotation, and steering wheel angle sensing.

Vector Hall effect technology, applied to magnetic rotation angle, has the advantages of high accuracy, broad linear range, low power consumption , excellent repeatability, high temperature stability and low cost. With these advantages, its application field can be easily extended to industrial automation, security and robotics applications as well as medical applications.

The working principle of the vector hall effect sensor is based on the Hall effect. When the magnetic field is up to the Hall effect detection threshold, the voltage will induce a current that can be picked up by the Hall effect sensor. By measuring the output, the relative angle or velocity relative to the magnetic field can be calculated. The output signal of vector Hall effect sensor is proportional to the product of the sine and cosine functions of the angle between the sensor and magnetic field. An advantage of this type of Hall effect sensor is that irrelevant external influences are nearly cancelled out.

Vector Hall effect sensor offers long-term stability, high precision, low cost and low power consumption in the same time. It finds wide application in the automotive industry, particularly used in the gear position sensing for manual transmission or reversed light control, detection of angular speed of crankshaft and camshaft rotation, and steering wheel angle sensing. As for the robotics and industrial automation industry, vector Hall effect sensor is used for angular positioning, robot control, and tracking movements of objects, such as those used to automate production equipment. Vector Hall effect sensor has demonstrated its versatility in various application fields, which is why it is here to stay.
