Our Company
Sensitec GmbH was founded in 1999 in
Lahnau, near to Frankfurt, in Germany.
The demand for MagnetoResistive (MR)
sensors for industrial and automotive ap-
plications was great and continues to in-
crease. Sensitec was able to establish
itself in this rapidly expanding market
and grew continuously. Already in 2000
Sensitec was able to take over the Insti-
tute for Micro Structure Technology and
Opto Electronics (IMO) in Wetzlar. This
institute already had more than 10 years
research and development experience in
the field of magnetoresistive
sensors. In 2003 Sensitec took over con-
trol of the Naomi technologies AG in
Mainz and from this point on has owned
Europe‘s most efficient and modern fac-
tory for the production of sensors based
on the AMR- and GMR-technology. The
range of products could be significantly
widened since then.
Our Philosophy
Sensitec is a leading supplier of magne-
toresistive sensor technology and mag-
netic microsystems. Our core capabilities
lie in the design, development, produc-
tion and marketing of sensor solutions
for the measurement of magnetic, elec-
trical and mechanical variables accord-
ing to the requirements of customers in a
wide range of different application fields.
Numerous patents and licences for the
production and application of MR sen-
sors, backed by a broad spectrum of ex-
perience and knowledge in this field, pro-
vide the foundation for these capabilities.
Our Products
Sensors from Sensitec are based on the mag-
netoresistive (MR-) effect and are used for
•
angle measurement
•
length and position measurement
•
current measurement
•
magnetic field measurement
MR sensors offer high accuracy, high res-
olution, robustness, high sensitivity and
high reliability. They are wear-free and
easy to integrate. In close co-operation
with our customers we develop and man-
ufacture reliable and performant MR sen-
sors in series production. The advanced
and innovative solutions from Sensitec
can be found in many areas such as
•
industrial automation
•
measurement and control equipment
•
medical equipment
•
automotive applications
•
aerospace
•
laser technology etc.
From chip design and production, to
the design of customized measurement
scales and the development of integrated
signal processing electronics for specif-
ic applications, Sensitec is a reliable and
competent system partner.
