The Throttle Position Sensor (TPS) is instrumental in Chevrolet Corvette and is used for regulating the air-fuel mixture in the engines for combustion. Being mounted upstream of the throttle valve, the Throttle Position Sensor provides real time signals to the fuel injection system about throttle valve position and power requirements of the engine. This feedback loop happens many times of a second; thus, the acceleration and deceleration are very smooth. In Corvette models, various types of Throttle Position Sensor have been used over the years with Hall effect, inductive and magnetoresistive being some of the non-contact sensors. These modern sensors differentiate from the earlier potentiometric sensors that function by physical contacting and are instead based on detection of changes in magnetic fields, thus improving reliability and performance of sensors. Additional connection with related accelerator pedal sensors enhances the electronic throttle control system and the efficiency of Chevrolet Corvette engines in overall.
