Method for calibrating a sensor and switching arrangement for operating a sensor
First Claim
1. A method for calibration of a magnetic sensor (1) sensing a position of a target (2, 30), characterized in that the magnetic sensor (1) is arranged in a predetermined position to the target (2, 3), wherein a control unit (6) is arranged externally to the magnetic sensor and is connected to the magnetic sensor (1) and controls a calibration in the sensor, wherein data necessary for the calibration is determined in the magnetic sensor and wherein determined calibration data is stored permanently in a storage medium (5) in the magnetic sensor (1).
