Camshaft Position
Sensor (CMPS) is a hall sensor and detects the camshaft position by using
a hall element.
It is related with
Crankshaft Position Sensor (CKPS) and detects the piston position of each
cylinder which the CKPS can't detect.
The CMPS is installed
on engine head cover and uses a target wheel installed on the camshaft.
The Cam Position sensor is a hall-effect type sensor. As the target wheel
passes the Hall sensor, the magnetic field changes in the sensor. The
sensor then switches a signal which creates a square wave.
