What are the types of automotive sensors?
1 Answers
Automotive sensors include Hall-effect type and magnetoelectric type. The following introduces the usage and classification of vehicle speed sensors: Usage of vehicle speed sensors: Vehicle speed sensors are devices used to detect the speed of electronically controlled vehicles. The control computer uses this input signal to regulate engine idle speed, torque converter lock-up in automatic transmissions, automatic transmission gear shifting, engine cooling fan operation, and cruise control functions. Classification of vehicle speed sensors: They are divided into photoelectric type, Hall-effect type, and magnetoelectric type. Photoelectric vehicle speed sensors are solid-state optoelectronic semiconductor sensors. Hall-effect sensors are solid-state sensors. Magnetoelectric vehicle speed sensors are analog AC signal generators.
