particular automotive safety integrity level (ASIL). The ADMT4000 will be supplied as either ASIL-QM or ASIL B(D) to suit applications that do and don’t need the advanced ASIL or SIL functionality. Conclusion The ADMT4000 and the f i rst integrated TPO multiturn position sensor are set to significantly reduce system design complexity and effort, ultimately resulting in smaller, lighter, and lower cost solutions. The ease of use of the ADMT4000 will enable designers with and without magnetic design capability to add new and improved functionality to current applications and open the door to many new applications. To find out more about the ADMT4000 and the magnetic reference design, please contact your local ADI sales team who will be happy to discuss your requirements and applications or visit analog.com/magnetics.
