  • Abstract
    An analysis of the magnetoresistance effect used as a displacement transducer shows that the device is more sensitive in the moving armature mode of operation than it is in the moving element mode. An experimental sensitivity of 1.1 \\times 10^{2} V/m was readily achieved. This was in good agreement with the calculated sensitivity, showing that the performance of the device can be accurately predicted.
