Application of Position Sensors in Automobiles

49
Position sensors play an important role in automobiles, such as crankshaft position sensors and throttle position sensors. The crankshaft position sensor is a key component of the engine's electronic control system. It detects the piston top dead center signal and the crankshaft angle signal to provide the necessary signal for ignition timing. The throttle position sensor converts the change in throttle opening into an electrical signal for the electronic control unit to determine the operating conditions of the engine.
