About this manual

The NXP KMZ60 is an angle sensor designed specifically for rotor position detection in Brushless DC (BLDC) motors. It utilizes MagnetoResistive (MR) technology with an integrated amplifier to deliver single-ended cosine and sine output signals related to the angle of a rotating magnetic field. The device is fully automotive qualified and also suitable for industrial and consumer applications such as Electronic Power Steering (EPS), steering angle measurement, window wiper position detection, and general contactless angular measurement.
