1.3 Application Example
The TLE5012B GMR-based angle sensor is designed for angular position sensing in automotive applications such
as:
• Electrically commutated motor (e.g. Electric Power Steering (EPS), Brushless DC electric motors (BLDC))
• Rotary switches
• Steering angle measurements
• General angular sensing
The TLE5012B is also used in various non-automotive applications.
