Abstract

A off-axis angle sensor may receive a set of output signals including a first output signal, a second output signal, and a third output signal. The off-axis angle sensor may determine, based on the set of output signals, a set of delta signals including a first delta signal, a second delta signal, and a third delta signal. The off-axis angle sensor may identify a set of functional safety checks, from a plurality of functional safety checks configured on the off-axis angle sensor, for selective performance in association with determining functional safety of the off-axis angle sensor. Each of the plurality of functional safety checks may be performed independently of each of the other functional safety checks. The off-axis angle sensor may perform one or more functional safety checks based at least in part on at least one of: the set of output signals or the set of delta signals.
