Abstract
The present paper relates to a development of the Gear Detection Sensor for automotive manual transmission. To detect air gap from control finger to detecting zone of sensor based on non-contacted method, permanent magnet and linear type Hall IC are mounted in this sensor. Control finger is machined to 3 step heights to detect 3 gear stages such as In-Gear, Normal and Rear. After conducting actual experimentation based on exclusive Jig and FEM, it is described to consider possibility for automotive application of Gear Detection Sensor.
