dsh000142_002en 7 2. functional description 2.1. general function the hal856 is a monolithic integrated circuit which provides an output signal proportional to the magnetic flux through the hall plate. the external magnetic field component perpendicular to the branded side of the package generates a hall voltage. the hall ic is sensitive to magnetic north and south polarity. this voltage is converted to a digital value, processed in the digital signal processing unit (dsp) according to the settings of the eeprom regis- ters, converted to the different digital output formats (pwm and biphase-m serial protocol) and provided by an output current source. the function and the param- eters for the dsp are explained in section 2.2. on page 9. the setting of the lock register disables the program- ming of the eeprom memory for all time. this regis- ter cannot be reset. as long as the lock register is not set, the output characteristic can be adjusted by programming the eeprom registers. the ic is addressed by modulat- ing the supply voltage (see fig. 2?1). after detecting a command, the sensor reads or writes the memory and answers with a digital modulation of the current con- sumption. there is no transmission of the pwm signal during the communication. when no command is detected or processed and the supply voltage is within the recommended operating range the pwm or biphase-m output is enabled. internal temperature compensation circuitry and the choppered offset compensation enables operation over the full temperature range with minimal changes in accuracy and high offset stability. the circuitry also rejects offset shifts due to mechanical stress from the package. the non-volatile memory consists of redun- dant eeprom cells. in addition, the sensor ic is equipped with devices for overvoltage and reverse- voltage protection at all pins. fig. 2?1: programming with v dd modulation fig. 2?2: hal856 block diagram 5 6 7 8 v dd (v) hal 856 v dd gnd data i dd (a) temperature oscillator switched a/d digital data v dd gnd eeprom memory bandgap reference dependent bias hall plate converter signal processing supply lock level control current output detection and protection devices hal856 data sheet 8 march 23, 2010;

dsh000142_002en micronas mode the mode register consists of four ?sub?-registers defining the magnetic and output behavior of the sen- sor. the range bits are the three lowest bits of the mode register; they define the magnetic field range of the a/d converter. the next three bits (filter) define the ? 3 db frequency of the digital low pass filter. the next sub-register is the format register, and it defines the different output formats as described below. this sub-register also consists of 3 bits. the last three msbs define the output period of the pwm signal. range filter output format the hal856 provides two different output formats: a pwm and biphase-m output. pmw output is a pulse width modulated output. the signal is defined by the ratio of pulse width to pulse period. the biphase-m output is a serial protocol. a logical ?0? is coded as no output level change within the bit time. a logical ?1? is coded as an output level change between 50% and 80% of the bit time. after each bit, an output level change occurs (see section 3.6.1. on page 26). table 2?1: range register definition magnetic field range bit setting ? 30 mt...30 mt 0 ? 40 mt...40 mt 4 ? 60 mt...60 mt 5 ? 75 mt...75 mt 1 ? 80 mt...80 mt 6 ? 90 mt...90 mt 2 ? 100 mt...100 mt 7 ? 150 mt...150 mt 3 table 2?2: filter register definition ? 3 db frequency bit setting 80 hz 0 160 hz 1 500 hz 2 1khz 3 2khz 4 table 2?3: output format register definition output format bit setting pwm 2 biphase-m 4 1) biphase-m (test) 5 2) 1) in case of output format = 4 the continuous biphase-m output will be active after locking the device. in order to test the biphase-m output with non-locked sensors output format = 5 has to be used. 2) writing output format = 5 will activate the biphase-m output for test purpose. the test can be deactivated by switching the device off. it is not possible to communicate with the sensor after activation of test mode. data sheet hal856 micronas march 23, 2010; dsh000142_002en 11 output period the output period register defines the pwm period of the output signal. output bittime the output bittime register defines the bit time of the biphase-m output signal. output bittime is ?sub?-register of the special customer register. note: setting the biphase-m bit time to 40 s simulta- neously switches the programming telegram to the same bit time. hence after writing the output bittime register the timing of the pro- gramming device has to be set accordingly. tc and tcsq the temperature dependence of the magnetic sensitiv- ity can be adapted to different magnetic materials in order to compensate for the change of the magnetic strength with temperature. the adaption is done by programming the tc (linear temperature coefficient) and the tcsq registers (quadratic temperature coef- ficient). thereby, the slope and the curvature of the temperature dependence of the magnetic sensitivity can be matched to the magnet and the sensor assem- bly. as a result, the output signal characteristic can be fixed over the full temperature range. the sensor can compensate for linear temperature coefficients ranging from about ? 2100 ppm/k up to 600 ppm/k and qua- dratic coefficients from about ? 5ppm/k 2 to 5 ppm/k 2 . please refer to section 4.3. on page 30 for the recom- mended settings for different linear temperature coeffi- cients. slope the slope register contains the parameter for the multiplier in the dsp. the slope is programmable between ? 4 and 4. the register can be changed in steps of 0.00049. slope = 1 corresponds to an increase of the output signal by 100% if the digital value at the a/d-converter output increases by 2048. for all calculations, the digital value after the digital signal processing is used. this digital information is readable from the digital output register. shift the shift register contains the parameter for the adder in the dsp. shift is the output signal without external magnetic field (b = 0 mt) and programmable from ? 100% up to 100%. for calibration in the system environment, a 2-point adjustment procedure is rec- ommended. the suitable slope and shift values for each sensor can be calculated individually by this pro- cedure. part number in case of biphase-m output, a part number can be defined. this part number will be sent during power-on of the sensor if the partnumber enable bit is set. afterwards, the sensor will send the digital value corre- sponding to the applied magnetic field. ? the partnumber enable bit is part of the special customer register. ? the output period register defines the time interval for which the part number is sent. table 2?4: output period register definition pwm output period bit setting 128 ms;

dsh000142_002en micronas output characteristic the output characteristic register defines the shape of the sensor output signal. it consists of 32 setpoints. each setpoint can be set to values between 0 and 511 lsb. the output characteristic has to be monotonic increasing (setpoint0 setpoint1 setpointn). lockr by setting this 1-bit register, all registers will be locked, and the sensor will no longer respond to any supply voltage modulation. this bit is active after the first power-off and power-on sequence after setting the lock bit. warning: this register cannot be reset! digital output this 12-bit register delivers the actual digital value of the applied magnetic field after the signal processing. this register can only be read out, and it is the basis for the calibration procedure of the sensor in the sys- tem environment. offset correction the offset correction register allows to adjust the digital offset of the built-in a/d-converter. the digi- tal offset can be programmed to ? 3/4, ? 1/2, ? 1/4, 0, +1/4, +1/2, +3/4 of full-scale. note: using the offset correction will change the micronas trimming of the lsb adjusted offset. slew rate the slew rate register is a ?sub?-register of the currentsource register. the output signal fall and rise time of the hal856 depends on the slew rate register setting and the external load circuit. note: the slew rate can be programmed to optimize the emi behavior of the application. the differ- ential current change has a gaussian shape for low emission. please contact micronas application support in case further slew rates are required. fig. 2?5: typical i dd vs. slew rate for setting ?slowest slew rate? table 2?6: offset correction register definition offset correction bit setting ? 3/4 28 ? 1/2 29 ? 1/4 30 00 1/4 17 1/2 18 3/4 19 table 2?7: slew rate register definition typ. values (sensor only) bit setting rise time [s/ma] fall time [s/ma] 0.05 0.1 0 0.3 0.6 1 0.5 1.1 2 0.8 1.6 3 data sheet hal856 micronas march 23, 2010;

(setpoint 0 = 0, setpoint 1 = 16, setpoint 2 = 32, ..., setpoint 31 = 496). ? slope initial depends on the setting of the digital low-pass filter (see table 2?9). step 3: define calibration points for highest accuracy of the sensor, calibration points near the minimum and maximum input signal are rec- ommended. define nominal values dout1 nom and dout2 nom of the digital output register at the calibration points 1 and 2, respectively. note: micronas software pc856 uses default settings dout1 nom = 0 and dout2 nom = 3968. the output is clamped to setpoint 0 and setpoint 31. in the case of ?linear standard??, setpoint 0 corresponds to digital output = 0, while setpoint 31 corresponds to digital output = 3968. step 4: calculation of shift and slope set the system to calibration point 1 and read the register digital output. the result is the value dout1. now, set the system to calibration point 2, read the register digital output, and get the value dout2. with these values, the settings for sensitivity and shift are calculated as: write the calculated values for slope, shift, and the desired output characteristic into the eeprom. the sensor is now calibrated for the customer application. as long as the lock bit is not set, the calibration pro- cedure can be applied repeatedly. note: for a recalibration, the calibration procedure has to be started at the beginning (step 1). a new initialization is necessary, as the initial values for slope initial , shift initial and output characteristic are overwritten in step 4. step 5: locking the sensor the last step is activating the lock function with the ?lock? command. please note that the lock function becomes effective after power-down and power-up of the hall ic. the sensor is now locked and does not respond to any programming or reading commands. warning: this register cannot be reset! table 2?9: initial slope values ? 3 db frequency slope initial 80 0.2578 160 0.2578 500 0.1938 1000 0.1938 2000 0.3398 slope slope initial dout 2 nom dout 1 nom ?
