What it represents
This representation identifies a resistive element whose response is associated with a magnetic field. The component is a resistive sensing element associated with a magnetic field. It can participate in a larger measurement circuit rather than providing a ready-made contact output.
Identify any bridge, conditioning or controller input associated with the element. A magnetically operated switch has a different electrical output description.
How to read it
- Document the sensing circuit and output conditioning separately.
- A magnetoresistive element is distinct from a magnetic contact switch.
Information to show or reference
- Identify the associated device, circuit or diagram boundary.
- Document the sensing circuit and output conditioning separately.
- Cross-reference the equipment data, terminal mapping or operating-state legend needed to interpret the form.
A distinction that matters
A magnetoresistive element is distinct from a magnetic contact switch.
