A fail operational steering angle sensor for vehicles is provided. The fail operational Steering Angle Sensor comprises one central gear (hub) and two outer gears (Gear 1 and Gear 2) mechanically connected to the hub. The two outer gears have magnetic properties, and they are arranged in the vicinity of a Printed Circuit Board (PCB). The SAS Fail Operational is connected to a Steering Wheel Actuator shaft that, by means of a mechanical connection with the central gear, the two outer gears and a rotor arranged between the central gear and the PCB, provides angular rotation to the above-mentioned moving parts. The variations of the magnetic field and flux originated in the rotation of the mechanical parts will be determined by the PCB.
