Boston, MA -- (SBWIRE) -- 02/16/2016 -- A sensor measures or responds to physical changes in its environment and transforms mechanical signals into electric signals. Magnetic sensors use magnetic fields to sense changes in speed, motion, and direction.
MEMS-based magnetic sensors are small devices used for measuring and detecting magnetic fields. Most of these devices function by detecting Lorentz force effects, during which the resonant frequency or voltage change may be measured electronically or optically for mechanical displacement.
The demand for three-axis magnetic field sensors for low-power, low-cost applications like electronic compasses for smartphones is increasing. For these applications, manufacturers prefer Lorentz-force MEMS-based magnetometers to other magnetic sensors such as magnetic tunnel junction (MTJ) and anisotropic magnetoresistance (AMR).
