CONSTRUCTION
This non-contact type accelerator pedal sensor assembly uses a Hall IC.
The magnetic yoke mounted on the base of the accelerator pedal arm moves around the Hall IC in accordance with the amount the accelerator pedal is depressed. The Hall IC converts the changes in the magnetic flux that occur into electrical signals, and outputs them in the form of an accelerator pedal input signal to the EV control ECU.
This accelerator pedal sensor assembly includes 2 Hall ICs and circuits for the main and sub signals. The accelerator pedal sensor assembly converts the accelerator pedal opening angle into voltage signals with two differing characteristics and outputs them to the EV control ECU.
