YAS529 MS-3C Magnetic field Sensor Overview YAS529 is the Triaxial Geomagnetic Sensor IC integrating buffer amplifier, A/D converter, clock generator, and serial data interface circuit (supports I2C bus) on one chip package. YAS529 allows you to make up a high sensitive, compact and low-power electronic compass in a portable GPS system or a mobile phone. Features ● A manufacturing process that makes magnetic sensor on Si wafer with high precision realizes integration with peripheral circuits on one chip. ● High sensitive geomagnetic sensor IC is realized by integrating magnetic sensors and low noise amplifiers. ● High noise immunity is improved by digitizing output from geomagnetic sensor IC. ● External interface supports I2C bus (100kbps/400kbps, slave mode). ● Geomagnetic sensor with superior high board density and low-power consumption. ● Automatic power-down control mode is available after geomagnetic measurements. ● Three A/D input pins for an inclination sensor ● Power-down control of an inclination sensor with a standby pin by the use of the General-Purpose Output (GPO) Pin ● Others.

Block Diagram 4 YAS529 Function Descriptions z Analog Circuit Section ○ Magnetic Sensor YAS529 includes three Magnetic Sensors. Only the sensor of an axis to measure at the time of magnetic field measurement is operated. ○ Buffer Amplifier The buffer amplifier amplifies a signal output from the bridge of magnetic sensor. The amplifier operates only when magnetic field measurement is made. ○ Temperature Sensor This is the sensor to correct the temperature characteristics of the magnetic sensor. The sensor operates only when temperature is measured. ○ A/D Converter (ADC) The A/D converter converts input signals from magnetic sensor output amplified by the buffer amplifier, temperature sensor output, and external input pin. The converter operates only when a measurement is performed. ○ Clock Generator The clock generator supplies clocks to ADC and digital circuits. The generator operates only when a measurement is performed. ○ Power-on Reset The Power-on Reset circuit detects a rising edge of the supply voltage for the core and initializes the circuits. ○ Initialization Coil The coils are used when the magnetic sensor cannot exert the original characteristics due to receiving high magnetic field. Generating magnetic field with the initialization coils initializes the magnetic sensor characteristics. ○ Analog External Input A/D The A/D measures values from analog external input. Input range is from 0.5 to 2.5V. One count of A/D converter is about 3.0mV. 5 YAS529 z Digital Circuit Section ○ Serial Data Interface YAS529 serial data interface supports I2C bus serial interface and operates in the slave mode. SCL (SCL) : Serial clock input pin SDA (SDA) : Serial data input/output pin Communication is performed through the above pins. ○ General-Purpose Output (GPO) Pin YAS529 has GPO as general-purpose output pin. This output pin can be used for purposes such as power-down control of an inclination sensor with standby pin. 6 YAS529 Example of System Configuration Here is an example of system configuration.

Example of system configuration Example of system configuration (RSTN pin is not used) 7 YAS529 Package Outline Drawing Caution * The product of the WLCSP package should be used under light-shielded conditions. Since the WLCSP package has a structure that a silicon wafer is exposed, if light (such as sunlight) hits the wafer, the device may malfunction (leak current increase etc.) due to electric charge internally generated by the photoelectric effect. * Please mount the package without underfill because temperature correction may not be normally performed when mounting YAS529 on a board. 8 YAS529 YAS529
