Magnetic speed sensor for rotational detection
The TLE4926C-HTNE6547 is a magnetic switch speed sensor from Infineon Technologies, designed to detect rotational speed by sensing alternating magnetic fields from a ferromagnetic target or a multipole magnet. It responds to both North Pole and South Pole polarization, which means it can work with a variety of magnet orientations without requiring a specific pole alignment — a practical advantage when the sensor is mounted in a tight gearbox or motor housing where the magnet's polarity may not be known in advance.
Through-hole package and assembly fit
This sensor comes in a through-hole package, which simplifies hand-assembly and rework in low-volume production or repair scenarios. The through-hole leads provide a stronger mechanical anchor on the PCB compared to surface-mount alternatives — useful in applications with vibration, such as engine speed sensing or industrial conveyor drives. The package type is listed as Bulk, meaning it ships as loose units rather than tape-and-reel, so plan for manual placement or a tube feeder if using automated insertion.
Active lifecycle with no end-of-life watch
For existing production lines, this means no last-time-buy planning is needed — the supply channel should remain stable through the standard product lifecycle.
