Abstract
A magnetic field sensor based on the dependence of the magnetostrictiv e delay line (MDL) response on its biasing magnetic field is presented in this paper, Such a sensor can be formed in an integrated array mea suring the distribution of field along the MDL axis, Experimental resu lts are reported for amorphous FeSiB wire MDL's, showing that high sen sitivity and nonhysteresis are two advantages of this type of sensor.
