I think I read the room right haha.
This is
Permanentmagnetic Linear Contactless Displacement Sensor via SENT. The SENT signal was specified by American automobile manufacturers. It is characterised by its simplicity and works on an unshielded three-wire connection which also transmits the supply voltage to the sensors. The transmission via a SENT signal is digital and relatively uncritical against fault signals. That is because the information content is located in the falling signal edge only, whereas the time between two falling pulse edges contains the information of the nibbles. The value transmitted by a nibble is proportional to the duration between two falling pulse edges.
