A Frequency Modulation GMI Magnetic Sensor Base on Inverter Multivibrator with Longitudinal Excitation

Article Preview

Abstract:

Frequency Modulation (FM) GMI Magnetic Sensors has excellent performance in high signal-to-noise ratio and low power consumption. In this article, the FM magnetic sensors with longitudinal excitation are presented. The inductance of the sensing head versus the excitation frequency and the external magnetic field is tested by the impedance analyzer. The results show that the inductance is sensitive with the excitation frequency from 200kHz to 600kHz. The bias magnetic field generated by a permanent magnet is used to make the sensing head working at a linear region with the highest sensitivity. Three kinds of magnetic sensors with different inverter multivibrators circuits are illustrated and their static characteristics are provided through calibration experiments and data analysis. It shows that the first type has the highest sensitivity (41.0kHz/Oe) and the third type has the best linearity.
