Abstract

An electromechanical transducer device for a vehicle transmission or drive has a lever (1) that can be pivotally actuated about at least one first axis (2a, 2b) and which is mechanically decoupled from the transmission or drive. The lever is supported by a suspension (3) on the first axis (2a, 2b). The axis (2a, 2b) comprises at least one first component (6a, 6b) of a magnetic rotational angle sensor system (6a, 6b, 7a, 7b) at an axial end section to detect angular position or rotational movement of the lever (1). A second component (7a, 7b) of the rotational angle sensor system is arranged on the suspension (3) opposite of the end section of the axis (2a, 2b), wherein the axial end section is located within the suspension (3). A circuit board (15) accommodating the rotational angle sensors (7a, 7b) is arranged on the suspension (3), and the circuit board (15) comprises at least one flange-like extension (17, 18) protruding from the circuit board plane.
