Abstract :
A magnetic field sensor based on the dependence of the magnetostrictive delay line (MDL) response on its biasing magnetic field is presented in this paper. Such sensor can be formed in integrated array measuring distribution of field along the MDL axis. Experimental results are reported concerning amorphous FeSiB wire MDLs.
