NXP Semiconductors N.V. released a new generation of automotive position sensors, KMA210, which incorporates its latest magnetoresistive sensor chip and a unique signal conditioning ASIC developed using its advanced Silicon on Insulator (SOI) ABCD9 process technology.

The KMA210 is the first of a new magnetic sensor family in a full system-in-package solution that requires no external components. KMA210 is specially designed to improve the overall performance and increase robustness in automotive applications.

Key highlights:
  • Contactless angle measurements up 180°
  • High temperature range up to 160°C
  • Automotive qualification according AEC Q100
  • No external capacitors required
  • Overvoltage protection
  • Reflow capable due to MSL1


Availability: Production quantities.

What a neat device! I checked out the datasheet and was wondering if there will be any pictures/diagrams showing typical use/setup? I would think that this would be most helpful for robotic sensing applications and wonder what the cost is?
