ABSTRACT:
A compact sensing apparatus having reduced cross section and methods are provided for sensing the magnitude and direction of an electrical or magnetic field. The compact sensing apparatus and method preferably provide one of two transducer orientations in relation to the direction of the field arranged in the sensor apparatus to provide the smallest possible cross section. The compact sensing apparatus preferably includes a plurality of mounting pins. Each of the plurality of mounting pins preferably includes a first pin portion and a second pin portion connected to the first pin portion at a predetermined angle. The predetermined angle is preferably less than 180 degrees and more preferably in the range of about 70-110 degrees. A transducer formed from a semiconductor wafer is preferably mounted to the first pin portion for generating a transducer signal, and a signal conditioner also preferably formed from the same semiconductor wafer is mounted to the second pin portion for conditioning the transducer signal.
