The present invention relates to a system for reliably transmitting the position
of a control element to an electronic processing unit by way of electric signal
lines, wherein the position signal is transmitted by way of several signal channels,
and use thereof in a motor vehicle brake system. The present invention further
describes a position transmitter for transmitting position signals with a magnetic
encoder which is displaceable by a control element in relation to a magnetic transformer,
wherein the magnetic transformer(s) along with an integrated electronic signal-conditioning
circuit are arranged in an electronic sensor subassembly, as well as a receiving
device for receiving a position signal comprising several processing channels for
processing the position signals of the position transmitter.
