8.2.1 Linear Position Sensing

The high sensitivity of the fluxgate sensor, combined with the high linearity of the compensation loop and low noise of the DRV425-Q1, make the device an excellent choice for high-performance linear-position sense applications. A typical schematic of such a 5-V application using an internal 2.5-V reference is shown in Figure 67.
