Sensing ApplicationProblemSuggested SensorHow Sensor Improves Function
E-shifter control moduleProvide end user a way to toggle automobile operating states of Park, Reverse, Neutral, and DriveTMAG5170D-Q13D Hall effect sensors enable absolute angular position (on-axis or off-axis) or resolving multiple positions in 3D space. SPI, I2C, Sin/Cos interfaces available. Dual-die for robust functional safety (up to ASIL-D).
TMAG5170-Q1
TMAG5173-Q1
TMAG6180-Q1
LDC3114-Q14-channel inductive sensor with configurable threshold switch outputs provides a low power design immune to debris, liquids, and magnets while being compatible with gloves.
E-shifter actuatorTake feedback from E-shifter control module to precisely and efficiently change gear settingsDRV5013-Q1Hall-effect latches available in SOT-23 and TO-92 packages that can detect polarity changes as a ring or diametric magnet rotates on a low tooth count gear.
DRV5015-Q1
TMAG5170-Q13D Hall effect sensors that enable high-resolution absolute angular position (on-axis or off-axis) for high tooth count gears. SPI. Dual-die version for robust functional safety (up to ASIL-D).
TMAG5170D-Q1
Clutch shiftMonitors active gear setting for dual-clutch transmission and determines which clutch disk can be engaged for adjusting vehicle speed per feedback from E-shifter control module.DRV5013-Q1Hall-effect latches with multiple supply, sensitivity, and package options that allow flexibility in monitoring polarity changes of ring magnets found on the gear shafts.
