ABSTRACT:
A sensor having a signal generation module including a first magnetic sensor, an analog signal processing module, and a signal inversion module for inverting a first waveform and a second waveform, wherein the signal inversion module outputs the first and second waveforms in a first region spanning a first range of angular position of the magnet and outputs the first and second inverted waveforms in a second region spanning a second range of angular position of the magnet.
