1.1. Features
Hall-Effect Current Transducer
Release Note: Revision bars indicate significant
changes to the previous edition.
– high-precision current transducer with ratiometric
output and digital signal processing
– low output voltage drifts over temperature
1. Introduction
– 12-bit analog output
The CUR 3105 is a new current transducer based on
the Hall effect. The IC can be used for very precise
current measurements. The measured current is proportional to the analog output voltage driven by the
sensor’s output. Major characteristics like magnetic
field range, sensitivity, output quiescent voltage (output
voltage at B = 0 mT), and output voltage range are programmable in a non-volatile memory. The transducer
has a ratiometric output characteristic, which means
that the output voltage is proportional to the current
and the supply voltage. It is possible to program different transducers which are in parallel to the same supply voltage individually.
The CUR 3105 features a temperature-compensated
Hall plate with choppered offset compensation, an
A/D converter, digital signal processing, a D/A converter with output driver, an EEPROM memory with
redundancy and lock function for the calibration data,
an EEPROM for customer serial number, a serial interface for programming the EEPROM, and protection
devices at all pins. The internal digital signal processing is of great benefit because analog offsets, temperature shifts, and mechanical stress do not degrade the
transducers accuracy.
The CUR 3105 is programmable by modulating the
supply voltage. No additional programming pin is
needed. The easy programmability allows a 2-point
calibration by adjusting the output voltage directly to
the input signal (current). Individual adjustment of each
transducer during the customer’s manufacturing process is possible. With this calibration procedure, the
tolerances of the IC and the mechanical positioning
can be compensated in the final assembly. This offers
a low-cost alternative for all applications that presently
need mechanical adjustment or laser trimming for calibrating the system.
– multiple programmable magnetic characteristics in a
non-volatile memory (EEPROM) with redundancy
and lock function
– open-circuit (ground and supply line break detection) with 5 k pull-up and pull-down resistor, overvoltage and undervoltage detection
– for programming an individual transducer within several ICs in parallel to the same supply voltage, a
selection can be done via the output pin
– programmable clamping function
– programming through modulation of the supply voltage
– operates from 40 °C up to 170 °C junction temperature
– operates from 4.5 V up to 5.5 V supply voltage in
specification and functions up to 8.5 V
– operates with static magnetic fields and dynamic
magnetic fields up to 1 kHz
– overvoltage and reverse-voltage protection at all
pins
– magnetic characteristics extremely robust against
mechanical stress
– short-circuit protected push-pull output
– EMC and ESD optimized design
The calculation of the individual IC characteristics and
the programming of the EEPROM memory can easily
be done with a PC and the application kit from Micronas.
The transducer is designed for industrial, white
goods and automotive applications and operates
with typically 5 V supply voltage in the wide junction
temperature range from 40 °C up to 170 °C. The
CUR 3105 is available in the very small leaded packages TO92UT-1 and TO92UT-2, as well as in the small
eight-pin SOIC8 SMD package.

CUR 3105
DATA SHEET
The CUR3105 is a monolithic integrated circuit which
provides an output voltage proportional to the magnetic flux through the Hall plate and proportional to the
supply voltage (ratiometric behavior).
The external magnetic field component perpendicular
to the branded side of the package generates a Hall
voltage proportional to the magnetic field. This voltage
is converted to a digital value, processed in the Digital
Signal Processing Unit (DSP) according to the settings
of the EEPROM registers, converted to an analog voltage with ratiometric behavior, and stabilized by a pushpull output transistor stage. The function and the
parameters for the DSP are explained in Section 2.2.
on page 9.
The setting of the LOCK register disables the programming of the EEPROM memory for all time. This register 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 modulating the supply voltage (see Fig. 2–1). In the supply
voltage range from 4.5 V up to 5.5 V, the transducer
generates an analog output voltage. After detecting a
command, the transducer reads or writes the memory
The open-circuit detection provides a defined output
voltage if the VDD or GND line is broken. 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 redundant and nonredundant EEPROM cells. The non-redundant
EEPROM cells are only used to store production information inside the IC. In addition, the IC is equipped
with devices for overvoltage and reverse-voltage protection at all pins.

2.2. Digital Signal Processing and EEPROM
The DSP is the main part of this transducer and performs the signal conditioning. The parameters for the
DSP are stored in the EEPROM registers. The details
are shown in Fig. 2–3.
Terminology:
SENSITIVITY: name of the register or register value
Sensitivity:
name of the parameter
The EEPROM registers consist of four groups:
Group 1 contains the registers for the adaption of the
transducer to the magnetic field generated by the current to be measured: MODE for selecting the magnetic
field range and filter frequency to select the bandwidth
of the transducer.
Group 2 contains the registers for defining the output
characteristics: SENSITIVITY, VOQ, CLAMP-LOW,
and CLAMP-HIGH. The output characteristic of the
transducer is defined by these 4 parameters.
– The parameter VOQ (Output Quiescent Voltage) corresponds to the output voltage at B = 0 mT.
– The parameter Sensitivity defines the magnetic sensitivity:
V OUT
Sensitivity = ---------------B
– The output voltage can be calculated as:
converter offset compensation, and several other special settings.
An external magnetic field generates a Hall voltage
on the Hall plate. The ADC converts the amplified
positive or negative Hall voltage to a digital value. The
digital signal is filtered in the internal low-pass filter
and manipulated according to the settings stored in
the EEPROM. The digital value after signal processing is readable in the D/A-READOUT register.
Depending on the programmable magnetic range of
the transducer IC, the operating range of the A/D converter is from 30 mT...+30 mT up to 
100 mT...+100 mT.
During further processing, the digital signal is multiplied with the sensitivity factor, added to the quiescent
output voltage and limited according to the clamping
voltage. The result is converted to an analog signal
and stabilized by a push-pull output transistor stage.
The D/A-READOUT at any given magnetic field
depends on the programmed magnetic field range, the
low-pass filter, TC values and CLAMP-LOW and
CLAMP-HIGH. The D/A-READOUT range is min. 0
and max. 16383.
Note: During application design, it should be taken
into consideration that the maximum and minimum D/A-READOUT should not saturate in the
operational range of the specific application.
Range
The RANGE bits are bit 2 and 3 of the MODE register;
they define the magnetic field range of the A/D converter.
V OUT  Sensitivity  B + V OQ
The output voltage range can be clamped by setting
the registers CLAMP-LOW and CLAMP-HIGH in order
to enable failure detection (such as short-circuits to
VDD or GND and open connections).
Group 3 contains the general purpose register GP. The
GP Register can be used to store customer information, like a serial number after manufacturing. Micronas
will use this GP REGISTER to store informations like,
Lot number, wafer number, x and y position of the die
on the wafer, etc. This information can be readout by
the customer and stored in it’s on data base or it can
stay in the IC as is.

Note: Please contact Micronas for further information
about Multiplex Analog Output Mode.
In Burn-In Mode, the signal path of the transducer DSP
is stimulated internally without applied magnetic field.
In this mode, the transducer provides a “saw tooth”
shape output signal. Shape and frequency of the saw
tooth signal depends on the programming of the transducer. This mode can be used for Burn-In test in the
customers production line.

The SENSITIVITY register contains the parameter for
the multiplier in the DSP. The Sensitivity is programmable between 4 and 4. For VDD = 5 V, the register can
be changed in steps of 0.00049.
For all calculations, the digital value from the magnetic
field of the D/A converter is used. This digital information is readable from the D/A-READOUT register.

VOQ
The VOQ register contains the parameter for the
adder in the DSP. VOQ is the output voltage without
external magnetic field (B = 0 mT) and programmable
from VDD up to VDD. For VDD = 5 V, the register can
be changed in steps of 4.9 mV.
Note: If VOQ is programmed to a negative voltage, the
maximum output voltage is limited to:
In Analog Output mode, the transducer provides an
ratiometric 12-bit analog output voltage between 0 V
and 5 V.
V OUTmax = V OQ + V DD
In Multiplex Analog Output mode, the IC transmits the
LSN and MSN of the output value separately. This
enables the IC to transmit a 14-bit signal. In external
trigger mode the ECU can switch the output of the IC
between LSN and MSN by changing current flow direction through IC output. In case the output is pulled up
by a 10 k resistor the IC sends the MSN. If the output
is pulled down the IC will send the LSN. Maximum
refresh rate is about 500 Hz (2 ms). Three pins are
sufficient.

Clamping Voltage
D/A-READOUT
The output voltage range can be clamped in order to
detect failures like shorts to VDD or GND or an open
circuit.
This 14-bit register delivers the actual digital value of
the applied magnetic field after the signal processing.
This register can be read out and is the basis for the
calibration procedure of the IC in the system environment.
The CLAMP-LOW register contains the parameter for
the lower limit. The lower clamping voltage is programmable between 0 V and VDD/2. For VDD = 5 V, the register can be changed in steps of 9.77 mV.
The CLAMP-HIGH register contains the parameter for
the upper limit. The upper clamping voltage is programmable between 0 V and VDD. For VDD = 5 V, in
steps of 9.77 mV.
Note: The MSB and LSB are reversed compared with
all the other registers. Please reverse this register after readout.
GP Register
This register can be used to store some information,
like production date or customer serial number. Micronas will store production Lot number, wafer number
and x,y coordinates in three blocks of this registers.
The total register contains of four blocks with a length
of 13 bit each. The customer can read out this information and store it in his own production data base for reference or he can change them and store own production information.
Note: To enable programming of the GP register bit 0
of the MODE register has to be set to 1. This
register is not a guarantee for trace-ability.
LOCKR
By setting the first bit of this 2-bit register, all registers
will be locked, and the IC 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!

2.3. Calibration Procedure
2.3.1. General Procedure
For calibration in the system environment, the application kit from Micronas is recommended. It contains the
hardware for the generation of the serial telegram for
programming (Programmer Board Version 5.1) and the
corresponding software (PC3105) for the input of the
register values.
For the individual calibration of each transducer in the
customer application, a two point adjustment is recommended. The calibration shall be done as follows:
Step 1: Input of the registers which need not be
adjusted individually
The magnetic range (depending on the maximum field
strength generated by the current), the filter frequency,
the output mode and the GP Register value are given
for this application. Therefore, the values of the following registers should be identical for all transducers of
the customer application.
– FILTER
(according to the maximum signal frequency)
– RANGE
(according to the maximum magnetic field at the IC
position)
– OUTPUTMODE
Note: For inverted output characteristics it is necessary to change SensitivityINITIAL to -0.5.
Please contact your application support team for
further details.
Step 3: Define Calibration Points
The calibration points 1 and 2 can be set inside the
specified range. The corresponding values for VOUT1
and VOUT2 result from the application requirements.
Lowclampingvoltage  V OUT1,2  Highclampingvoltage
For highest accuracy of the transducer, calibration
points near the minimum and maximum input signal
are recommended. The difference of the output voltage between calibration point 1 and calibration point 2
should be more than 3.5 V.
Step 4: Calculation of VOQ and Sensitivity
Set the system to calibration point 1 and read the register D/A-READOUT. The result is the value D/AREADOUT1.
– GP
(if the customer wants to store own production information. It is not necessary to change this register)
Now, set the system to calibration point 2, read the
register D/A-READOUT again, and get the value D/AREADOUT2.
As the clamping voltages are given. They have an
influence on the D/A-Readout value and have to be set
therefore after the adjustment process.
With these values and the target values VOUT1 and
VOUT2, for the calibration points 1 and 2, respectively,
the values for Sensitivity and VOQ are calculated as:
Write the appropriate settings into the CUR3105 registers.
1
 Vout2 – Vout1 
16384
Sensitivity = ---  ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------  --------------2  D/A-Readout2 – D/A-Readout1 
5
Step 2: Initialize DSP
As the D/A-READOUT register value depends on
the settings of SENSITIVITY, VOQ and CLAMPLOW/HIGH, these registers have to be initialized
with defined values, first:
– VOQINITIAL = 2.5 V
1
Vout2  16384
V OQ = ------  ------------------------------------- –
16

  D/A-Readout2 – 8192   Sensitivity  2   -----------1024
– SensitivityINITIAL = 0.5
– Clamp-Low = 0 V
– Clamp-High = 4.999 V
12
This calculation has to be done individually for each IC.
March 24, 2011; DSH000155_002EN
Micronas
CUR 3105
DATA SHEET
Next, write the calculated values for Sensitivity and
VOQ into the IC for adjusting the transducer. At that
time it is also possible to store the application specific
values for Clamp-Low and Clamp-High into the ICs
EEPROM.
The transducer is now calibrated for the customer
application. However, the programming can be
changed again and again if necessary.
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 from step 1 are overwritten in step 4.
Step 5: Locking the Transducer
The last step is activating the LOCK function by programming the LOCK bit. Please note that the LOCK
function becomes effective after power-down and
power-up of the Hall IC. The IC is now locked and does
not respond to any programming or reading commands.
Warning: This register can not be reset!

3.4.1. Storage and Shelf Life for TO92UT Package
The permissible storage time (shelf life) of the sensors is unlimited, provided the sensors are stored at a maximum of
30 °C and a maximum of 85% relative humidity. At these conditions, no Dry Pack is required.
Solderability is guaranteed for one year from the date code on the package.
3.4.2. Storage and Shelf Life for SOIC8 Package
and the time frame “Time for Mounting after opening
the MBB”. The dry-bag shelf life capability of sealed
dry-bags is minimum 12 months starting from the “Bag
seal date” printed on each bag.
The SOIC8 package is a moisture-sensitive Surface
Mount Device. The Moisture Sensitivity Level (MSL) is
defined according to JEDEC J-STD-020 (Moisture/
Reflow Sensitivity Classification for Nonhermetic Solid
State Surface Mount Devices). The device is packed
acc. to IPC/JEDEC J-STD-033: Handling, Packing,
Shipping and Use of Moisture/Reflow Sensitive Surface Mount Devices. By using these procedures, safe
and damage-free reflow can be achieved.
If moisture-sensitive components have been exposed
to ambient air for longer than the specified time
according to their MSL, or the humidity indicator card
indicates too much moisture after opening a Moisture
Barrier Bag (MBB), the components have to be baked
prior to the assembly process. Please refer to IPC/
JEDEC J-STD-033 for details. Please be aware that
packing materials may not withstand higher baking
temperatures.
Please follow the instructions printed on each Moisture
Barrier Bag. These instructions contain information
about the Moisture Sensitivity Level “MSL”, the maximum reflow temperature “Peak Package Body Temp.”
3.5. Recommended Operating Conditions
Functional operation of the device beyond those indicated in the “Recommended Operating Conditions/Characteristics” is not implied and may result in unpredictable behavior, reduce reliability and lifetime of the device.

4. Application Notes
4.3. Ambient Temperature
4.1. Application Circuit
Due to the internal power dissipation, the temperature
on the silicon chip (junction temperature TJ) is higher
than the temperature outside the package (ambient
temperature TA).
For EMC protection, it is recommended to connect one
ceramic 100 nF capacitor each between ground and
the supply voltage, respectively the output voltage pin.
In addition, the input of the controller unit should be
pulled-down with a 10 k resistor and a ceramic
4.7 nF capacitor.
Please note that during programming, the sensor will
be supplied repeatedly with the programming voltage
of 12.5 V for 100 ms. All components connected to the
VDD line at this time must be able to resist this voltage.
T J = T A + T
At static conditions and continuous operation, the following equation applies:

4.7 nF
T = I DD  V DD  R thJ
OUT
C
HAL82x
4.7 nF
4.7 nF
10 k
GND
For typical values, use the typical parameters. For
worst case calculation, use the max. parameters for
IDD and RthJ, and the max. value for VDD from the
application.
For VDD = 5.5 V, RthjA = 235 K/W, and IDD = 10 mA, the
temperature difference T = 12.93 K.
Fig. 4–1: Recommended application circuit
4.2. Use of two CUR3105 in Parallel
Two different CUR3105 current transducers which are
operated in parallel to the same supply and ground line
can be programmed individually. In order to select the
IC which should be programmed, both ICs are inactivated by the “Deactivate” command on the common
supply line. Then, the appropriate IC is activated by an
“Activate” pulse on its output. Only the activated sensor will react to all following read, write, and program
commands. If the second IC has to be programmed,
the “Deactivate” command is sent again, and the second IC can be selected.
Note: The multi-programming of two transducers
works only if the outputs of the two IC’s are
pulled to GND with a 10 k pull-down resistor.
VDD
For all sensors, the junction temperature TJ is specified. The maximum ambient temperature TAmax can be
calculated as:
T Amax = T Jmax – T
4.4. EMC and ESD
The CUR3105 is designed for a stabilized 5 V supply.
Interferences and disturbances conducted along the
12 V on board system (product standard ISO 7637
part 1) are not relevant for these applications.
For applications with disturbances by capacitive or
inductive coupling on the supply line or radiated disturbances, the application circuit shown in Fig. 4–1 is recommended.

– Read a register (see Fig. 5–3)
After evaluating this command, the transducer
answers with the Acknowledge Bit, 14 Data Bits,
and the Data Parity Bit on the output.
5. Programming of the Current Transducer
5.1. Definition of Programming Pulses
The transducer is addressed by modulating a serial
telegram on the supply voltage. The transducer
answers with a serial telegram on the output pin.
The bits in the serial telegram have a different bit time
for the VDD-line and the output. The bit time for the
VDD-line is defined through the length of the Sync Bit
at the beginning of each telegram. The bit time for the
output is defined through the Acknowledge Bit.
A logical “0” is coded as no voltage change within the
bit time. A logical “1” is coded as a voltage change
between 50% and 80% of the bit time. After each bit, a
voltage change occurs.
– Programming the EEPROM cells (see Fig. 5–4)
After evaluating this command, the transducer
answers with the Acknowledge Bit. After the delay
time tw, the supply voltage rises up to the programming voltage.
– Activate a transducer (see Fig. 5–5)
If more than one transducer is connected to the supply line, selection can be done by first deactivating
all transducers. The output of all transducers will be
pulled to ground by the internal 10 k resistors.
With an Activate pulse on the appropriate output
pin, an individual transducer can be selected. All following commands will only be accepted from the
activated transducer.
5.2. Definition of the Telegram

Each telegram starts with the Sync Bit (logical 0),

5.3. Telegram Codes
Address Parity Bit (AP)
Sync Bit
This parity bit is “1” if the number of zeros within the
4 Address bits is uneven. The parity bit is “0” if the
number of zeros is even.
Each telegram starts with the Sync Bit. This logical “0”
pulse defines the exact timing for tp0.
Data Bits (DAT)
Command Bits (COM)
The 14 Data Bits contain the register information.
The Command code contains 3 bits and is a binary
number. Table 5–2 shows the available commands and
the corresponding codes for the CUR3105.
The registers use different number formats for the Data
Bits. These formats are explained in Section 5.4.
Command Parity Bit (CP)
In the Write command, the last bits are valid. If, for
example, the TC register (10 bits) is written, only the
last 10 bits are valid.
This parity bit is “1” if the number of zeros within the 3
Command Bits is uneven. The parity bit is “0”, if the
number of zeros is even.
In the Read command, the first bits are valid. If, for
example, the TC register (10 bits) is read, only the first
10 bits are valid.
Address Bits (ADR)
Data Parity Bit (DP)
The Address code contains 4 bits and is a binary number. Table 5–3 shows the available addresses for the
CUR3105 registers.
This parity bit is “1” if the number of zeros within the
binary number is even. The parity bit is “0” if the number of zeros is uneven.
Acknowledge
After each telegram, the output answers with the
Acknowledge signal. This logical “0” pulse defines the
exact timing for tpOUT.

CUR 3105
DATA SHEET
5.5.1. Programming Information
If the content of any register (except the lock registers)
is to be changed, the desired value must first be written into the corresponding RAM register. Before reading out the RAM register again, the register value must
be permanently stored in the EEPROM.
Permanently storing a value in the EEPROM is done
by first sending an ERASE command followed by
sending a PROM command. The address within the
ERASE and PROM commands must be zero.
ERASE and PROM act on all registers in parallel.
Note: To store data in the GP register it is necessary
to set bit number 0 of the MODE register to one,
before sending an ERASE and PROM command. Otherwise the data stored in the GP register will not be changed.
If all registers of CUR3105 are to be changed, all writing commands can be sent one after the other, followed by sending one ERASE and PROM command at
the end.
During all communication sequences, the customer
has to check if the communication with the transducer
was successful. This means that the acknowledge and
the parity bits sent by the transducer have to be
checked by the customer. If the Micronas programmer
board is used, the customer has to check the error
flags sent from the programmer board.
Note: For production and qualification tests, it is mandatory to set the LOCK bit after final adjustment
and programming of CUR3105. The LOCK
function is active after the next power-up of the
transducer. The success of the Lock Process
should be checked by reading at least one
transducer register after locking and/or by an
analog check of the transducers output signal.
Electrostatic Discharges (ESD) may disturb the
programming pulses. Please take precautions
against ESD.
