Amphenol Piher MTS-360 Contactless Sensor

Amphenol Piher MTS-360 Contactless Sensor is an SMD rotary position sensor with technology that combines a through-shaft design with 360° absolute position feedback. The sensor measures only 6mm x 17mm x 18mm, making it a full-featured rotary sensor but in an ultra-miniature size. Amphenol Piher MTS-360 Contactless Sensor features Hall effect technology, an offset through-hole to accommodate automated SMD assembly, and a 4mm double-D shaft. The IP50 sensor is rated for use at -40°C to +125°C and can operate up to 300RPM.

Features

  • Simple and robust magnetic design
  • Programmable switch output
  • Self-diagnostic features
  • Programmable linear transfer characteristic (some positive slopes and one negative slope can be programmed in the same transfer characteristic, up to 4 programmable points)
  • Programmable angular range from 15° to 360° (without dead band)
  • Overvoltage protection and reverse voltage protection
  • Rotational life: up to 50M cycles (depending on application and mounting)
  • -40°C to +125°C operating temperature range
