Setup -Each motor is composed of two ratiometric linear hall sensors. (Texas Instrument DRV5053 Analog-Bipolar Hall Effect Sensor) They are placed at around 120º from each other (eyes measured) and measure the magnetic field of the rotor. +Each motor is composed of two absolute linear hall sensors. (Texas Instrument DRV5053 Analog-Bipolar Hall Effect Sensor) They are placed at around 120º from each other (eyes measured) and measure the magnetic field of the rotor. -Ratiometric means that the output signal is proportional to the voltage supply to the sensor. In this setup, with 5V supply, the output measured is between 520mV and 1.5V, so a 1V amplitude signal. +Those sensor are absolute, meaning that the output of the measured magnetic field is the same regardless of the power suplly.
