Tech Briefing: Diametrically-Magnetized Magnets – Perfect for Magnetic Angle & Rotation Sensing

By Daniel A. Baker, NVE Corporation What is a “diametrically-magnetized” magnet? Diametrically-magnetized magnets have the poles on opposite sides of the magnet diameter, making them perfect for magnetic angle and rotation sensing (see Figure 1).This magnetization direction differs from conventional axially-magnetized disk magnets that have the north pole on one […]
