Zusammenfassung:A position sensor is presented. Some embodiments of a position sensor according to some embodiments includes a position sensor that includes a transmission coil; receive coils, the receive coils including at least one polarity change; a target configured to transit across the receive coils; and a controller configured to drive the transmission coil, receive signals from the receive coils, and provide a position response indicative of the target position over the receive coils, wherein the position response exhibits a first linear region of a first slope and a second linear region of a second slope.
