Abstract

A rotational angle sensor system including: a rotatably mounted movement sensor; a sensor that is designed to detect a rotation of the movement sensor, wherein the rotation occurs at a measurement angle interval; an evaluation electronics system designed to receive an analogue signal from the sensor and to digitalise same using an internal resolution, and to emit a digital output signal reporting the rotation detected by the sensor, wherein the resolution of the digital output signal for a measurement angle interval of less than or equal to 360° is the same size as the internal resolution.
