Structure and inner electrical connection
The servo-motor employed to adjust the position of the throttle valve is a DC motor. The throttle-valve sensor is a Hall-effect device. The hall effect sensor determines the revolutions of the servomotor. This provides the basis for calculating the position of the throttle valve.
