Abstract: In an embodiment, a method comprises: obtaining, by a sensing device on a ferromagnetic surface, a first magnetometer reading of magnetic flux density modified by the ferromagnetic surface in a first direction; obtaining, by the sensing device, a second magnetometer reading of magnetic flux density modified by the ferromagnetic surface in a second direction; obtaining, by the sensing device, sensitivity terms based on the first and second magnetometer readings; and storing, by the sensing device, the sensitivity terms and a location of the sensing device on the ferromagnetic surface.

Abstract: An angular detection system including a magnet and sensors is disclosed. The magnet can be located on a rotating component and the sensors can be located on a stationary component, or vice versa. The magnet can generate a plurality of magnetic flux lines. The plurality of sensors can be located and spatially separated along the motion path of the magnet for detecting the magnetic flux densities. The strength of the magnetic flux lines sensed by a given sensor can be used to determine the location of the magnet along its motion path. The plurality of sensors can generate one or more signals indicative of the strength of the sensed magnetic field lines. Based on the strength of the magnetic flux lines, the location of the magnet, or both, the system can determine the angle of rotation of the device by using a polynomial function or a look-up table.

Abstract: An electronic device can include a housing defining an internal volume and a pressure sensor assembly disposed in the internal volume and in communication with an ambient environment. The pressure sensor assembly can include a structure at least partially enclosing a sensor volume, a pressure sensor affixed to a die disposed in the sensor volume, and an exposed moisture detection conductor positioned in the sensor volume.
