Push-pull half-bridge magnetoresistive switch, comprising two magnetic sensor chips, each magnetic sensor chip having a magnetic induction resistor and a magnetic induction resistor electrical connection pad. The two magnetic sensor chips are electrically interconnected and have opposite and parallel directions of induction, thus forming the push-pull half-bridge circuit.
