Renesas Electronics IPS2550 Inductive Position Sensor

Renesas Electronics IPS2550 Inductive Position Sensor is an AEC-Q100 Grade 0 automotive-qualified sensor IC designed for high-speed motor commutation. This IC is capable of providing the absolute rotor position as sine and cosine. The IPS2550 position sensor uses the physical principle of Eddy currents to detect the position of a simple metallic target moving above a set of coils. The output interface can be configured as single-ended for higher system cost-effectiveness or differential to better reject common-mode disturbers. The IPS2550 inductive position sensor IC is ideally used in traction e-motors, electronic power steering, park brake actuator, belt starter generator, and pumps.
