What are the types of crankshaft position sensors?

[TuckerDella]

The types of crankshaft position sensors include: magnetoelectric induction type, Hall effect type, and photoelectric type. The functions of the crankshaft position sensor are: 1. To determine the crankshaft's rotation angle and the engine's speed; 2. The crankshaft position sensor works in conjunction with the camshaft position sensor to determine the engine's ignition timing. The principle of the automotive crankshaft position sensor is: 1. The crankshaft position sensor is installed on the flywheel, using pulse signals to sense the crankshaft's position and determine the engine's speed and the piston's relative position during crankshaft rotation; 2. The engine control unit uses the information provided by the crankshaft position sensor to generate ignition signals and injection pulses, which are sent to the ignition coil and fuel injector, respectively.
