3 Supported Magnets

The TI Magnetic Sense Enhanced Proximity Tool allows the user to specify a wide range of magnetic materials and shapes for single magnet simulations with no externally applied magnetic field.

Within the tool, tool-tips are available to the user when placing the cursor over the button shown in #GUID-B4F4770E-A913-434B-925F-04712F1D7F1A. For all magnet cases, the North pole is represented in red, while the South pole is represented in blue.
