These parameters can drift by the values in 14. Reliability Tests after the reflow and over the
lifetime of this product.
Note 2. These parameters are guaranteed by design.
Note 3. Total accuracy ETO is calculated by the equation below.
ETO = |100 × (Vh_meas − Vh) / Vh| + |100 × (Vof_meas − Vof_meas_35) / (Vh × |INS| × 2)| + |ρmeas|
where Vh_meas[mV/A], Vof_meas[mV], ρmeas[%F.S.] represent the measured value of sensitivity, offset
voltage and linearity error respectively, Vh[mV/A] represent the typical value of sensitivity, and
Vof_meas_35[mV] represent the measured value of offset voltage at Ta = 35C. In the case of
CQ-2234, ETO is calculated by the equation as below.
ETO = |100 × (Vh_meas − 24.5) / 24.5| + |100 × (Vof_meas − Vof_meas_35) / (24.5 × 54 × 2)| + |ρmeas|

11. Characteristics Definitions
11.1. Sensitivity Vh [mV/mT], Offset Voltage Vof [V]
Sensitivity is defined as the slope of the approximate straight line calculated by the least square method,
using the data of VOUT voltage (VOUT) when the primary current (IIN) is swept within the range of linear
sensing range (INS). Offset voltage is defined as the intercept of the approximate straight line above.
11.2. Linearity Error ρ [%F.S.]
Linearity error is defined as the ratio of the maximum error voltage (Vd) to the full scale (F.S.), where Vd
is the maximum difference between the VOUT voltage (VOUT) and the approximate straight line calculated
in the sensitivity and offset voltage definition. Definition formula is shown in below:
ρ = Vd / F.S. × 100
Full scale (F.S.) is defined by the multiplication of sensitivity Vh and linear sensing range INS(max) −
INS(min) (Figure 5).

11.3. Ratiometric Error of Sensitivity Vh-R [%], Ratiometric Error of Offset Voltage Vof-R [%]
Output of CQ-2234 is ratiometric, which means the values of sensitivity (Vh) and offset voltage (Vof) are
proportional to the supply voltage (VDD). Ratiometric error is defined as the difference between the Vh (or
Vof) and ideal Vh (or Vof) when the VDD is changed from 3.3V to VDD1 (2.97V ≤ VDD1 ≤ 3.63V). Definition
formula is shown in below:
Vh-R = 100 × {(Vh(VDD = VDD1) / Vh(VDD = 3.3V)) − (VDD1 / 3.3)} / (VDD1 / 3.3)
Vof-R = 100 × {Vof(VDD = VDD1) − Vof(VDD = 3.3V) × (VDD1 / 3.3)) / F.S.
Full scale (F.S.) is defined by the multiplication of sensitivity Vh and linear sensing range INS(max) −
INS(min) in the condition of VDD = 3.3V (Figure 5).
11.4. Temperature Drift of Sensitivity Vh-d [%]
Temperature drift of sensitivity is defined as the drift ratio of the sensitivity (Vh) at Ta=Ta1 (−40C ≤ Ta1 ≤
110C) to the Vh at Ta=35C, and calculated from the formula below:
Vh-d = 100 × (Vh(Ta1) / Vh(35C) − 1)
Reference data of the temperature drift of sensitivity of CQ-2234 is shown in Figure 6.

[CQ-2234]
11.5. Temperature Drift of Offset Voltage Vof-d [mV]
Temperature drift of offset voltage is defined as the drift value between the offset voltage (Vof) at Ta=Ta1
(−40C ≤ Ta1 ≤ 110C) and the Vof at Ta=35C, and calculated from the formula below:
Vof-d = Vof(Ta = Ta1) − Vof(Ta = 35C)
Reference data of the temperature drift of offset voltage of CQ-2234 is shown in Figure 7.

11.6. Rise Response Time tr [µs], Fall Response Time tf [µs]
Rise response time (or fall response time) is defined as the time delay from the 90% (or 10%) of input
primary current (IIN) to the 90% (or 10%) of the VOUT voltage (VOUT) under the pulse input of primary
current (Figure 8).

(a) 0.1mF bypass capacitor should be placed near by the CQ-2234.
(b) CQ-2234 has the ratiometric output. By making the supply voltage of CQ-2234 and the reference
voltage of A/D converter common, the A/D conversion error caused by the fluctuation of supply
voltage is decreased.
Voltage dividers (R1 and R2) are required if the reference voltage of A/D converter is less than +3.3V.
For example, if the reference voltage of A/D converter is +1.8V which is its supply voltage level,
R1=10kΩ, R2=12kΩ are recommended. If the reference voltage of A/D converter is different from its
supply voltage level, one more voltage divider is required.
(c) Add a low-pass filter if it is necessary.

15. Precautions
[Storage Environment]
Products should be stored at an appropriate temperature and humidity (5 to 35°C, 40 to 85%RH).
Keep products away from chlorine and corrosive gas.
[Long-term Storage]
Long-term storage may result in poor lead solderability and degraded electrical performance even under
proper conditions. For those parts, which stored long-term shall be checked solderability before it is used.
For storage longer than 2 years, it is recommended to store in nitrogen atmosphere. Oxygen of atmosphere
oxidizes leads of products and lead solderability get worse.
[Other precautions]
1) This product should not be used under the environment with corrosive gas including chlorine or sulfur.
2) This product is lead (Pb) free. All leads are plated with 100% tin. Do not store this product alone in
high temperature and high humidity environment. Moreover, this product should be mounted on
substrate within six months after delivery.
3) This product is damaged when it is used on the following conditions:
- Supply voltage is applied in the opposite way.
- Overvoltage which is larger than the value indicated in the specification.
4) This product will be damaged if it is used for a long time with the current (effective current) which
exceeds the current rating. Careful attention must be paid so that maximum effective current is smaller
than current rating.
5) Since magnetic cores are fragile parts, do not use the fallen products.
6) The characteristic can change by the influences of nearby current and magnetic field. Please make sure
of the mounting position.
As this product contains gallium arsenide, observe the following procedures for safety.
1) Do not alter the form of this product into a gas, powder, liquid, through burning, crushing, or chemical
processing.
2) Observe laws and company regulations when discarding this product.
