Abstract
At least one magnetic field sensing device and an RF transceiver are integrated in a discrete, single-chip package. Rather than requiring at least two separate chips to wirelessly transmit the device output, an integrated, single chip solution can be used. The single chip integration of the at least one magnetic field sensing device and the RF transceiver can reduce the physical space required and, therefore, allow such devices to be smaller, lighter, and possibly more portable.
