Magnetic Speed Sensor Product Overview

Infineon's speed sensors detect rotational speed using Hall effect or GMR technology. Hall effect based speed sensors detect the voltage variation that occurs when a magnetic field is applied perpendicular to the current flowing through a semiconductor, while GMR based speed sensors detect the change in resistance of a sensing element, which changes depending on the direction and strength of the applied magnetic field.

Our lineup mainly includes products that detect crankshafts, camshafts, transmissions, and wheel speeds, and some products are designed to comply with the functional safety standards of ISO26262.
We also have products with packages that include capacitors and products that allow writing to EEPROM, so please contact us for help with component selection.

What is ISO 26262 compliant/ready?

For applications requiring a high level of functional safety, Infineon offers
We offer a lineup of products that meet the requirements of ISO 26262.

An ISO 26262 compliant product is designed in accordance with the safety plan and is fully compliant with ISO 2626. An ISO 26262 ready product is not designed in accordance with ISO 26262 itself, but has additional documentation ready to support functional safety.

Please refer to the "Functional Safety (ISO26262)" row in the lineup table for the compliance status of each product.
