Giant Magnetoresistance Electric Guitar Pickup
PubblicoContenuto scaricabile
open in viewerGiant Magnetoresistance (GMR) is the phenomenon of thin film metallic materials changing their resistances up to 50% in magnetic fields resulting in improved sensitivity when compared to existing Hall Effect devices. This project explores using GMR in a guitar pickup application comparable to inductive and Hall Effect types. A GMR-based prototype was designed, constructed and tested on the basis of sensitivity, bandwidth, signal-to-noise ratio, and power consumption. Results show that GMR is a viable alternative to both inductive and Hall Effect pickups with improved performance in several areas.
