Zusammenfassung: | Methods and apparatus for magnetic sensors and integrated calibration. In an example arrangement, a system includes a magnetic sensor configured to output a signal corresponding to magnetic fields; a calibration trace disposed proximal to the magnetic sensor; a controlled current source coupled to the calibration trace and configured to output a current resulting in a magnetic field output from the calibration trace; and a comparator coupled to the output signal from the magnetic sensor and to an expected signal. In the example arrangement, the comparator outputs a signal indicating whether the output signal from the magnetic sensor corresponds to the expected signal. Methods are also disclosed. |
