It is demonstrated that polycrystalline La_{0.33}Ca_{0.67}MnO_3 thin film sensors can be used to measure pulsed strong magnetic fields with microsecond duration rise and decay times. The response characteristics of these sensors were investigated using 0.7-1.0 ms duration bell-shaped magnetic field pulses of 10-20 T amplitudes and by using special waveform magnetic field pulses with amplitudes of 40 T and decay times of 50μs. The response of these magnetic field sensors was compared with those of conventional loop sensors and Faraday rotation sensors using Bi_{12}SiO_{20} single crystals as a known standard.
