Abstract:
Angle-of-rotation sensor comprising at least:a rotor unit that is positioned on a rotational axis on a shaft element, a stator unit disposed on the rotational axis and having at least one sensor element which creates a signal that corresponds to the rotational position of the rotor unit with respect to the stator unit, a stamped lead assembly at least partially embedded in insulating material comprising at least one lead line by means of which the signal may be passed to an output unit, and at least one circuit component connected to the lead assembly, the improvement wherein the stamped lead assembly is at least partially embedded in a shaped holding bracket by means of which, forming a holder unit, the stator unit is held together with the sensor element and the output unit, and wherein an expansion unit is positioned at least within the lead lines of the stamped lead assembly and at least partially in the shaped holding bracket.
