Cherry’s GS102301 geartooth speed sensor is suitable for any application where rugged, dependable speed sensing is required. Tested to SAE J1455, this digital output Hall effect speed sensor is self-adjusting over a wide range of magnetic flux densities, eliminating the need to optimize the sensor position within a small magnetic flux operating range. This feature also compensates for target run out. The single hall plate design is immune to alignment issues, allowing unlimited mounting positions. The sensor operates in temperatures ranging from -40C to 140C and meets IEC60529 IP68 standards for water immersion. The sensor also contains circuitry that protects it from EMI and ESD and is reverse battery protected. The device requires a minimum input of 3mA to function properly.
