Abstract
A system includes a multiturn counter that can store a magnetic state associated with a number of accumulated turns of a magnetic field. The multiturn counter includes a plurality of magnetoresistive elements electrically coupled in series with each other. A matrix of electrical connections is arranged to connect magnetoresistive elements of the plurality of magnetoresistive elements to other magnetoresistive elements of the plurality of magnetoresistive elements.
