SS817 Hall-Effect Cam Sensor Features and Benefits Application Examples Short Circuit Protection Rotary Position Gear Tooth Sensor Self-Adjusting Magnetic Range High Speed Operation No Chopper Delay Zero Speed Detection No Rotary Orientation Concerns Camshaft Sensor Geartooth Sensor Linear Encoder Rotary Encoder Direction Detection 3 pin TO92 (suffix UA) Functional Block Diagram General Description The SS817 is a self adjusting digital output rotary position gear tooth sensor designed for use in automotive camshaft sensing as well as other speed sensing applications. It is designed to be used with a bias magnet south facing the back (non-marked) side of the IC. The bias magnet can be from 50 to 400 mT. The device has an open collector output which is short circuit protected. As the signal is sampled, the logic recognizes an increasing or decreasing flux density. The output will turn on (BOP) after the flux has reached its peak and decreased by an amount equal to the hysteresis. Similarly the output will turn off (BOP) after the flux has reached its minimum value and increased by an amount equal to the hysteresis. 1 V1.50 Nov. 26, 2012 SS817 Hall-Effect Cam Sensor Pin Definitions and Descriptions SOT Pin № Name Type Function 1 VDD Supply Supply Voltage pin 2 GND Ground Ground pin 3 OUT Output Open Collector Output pin Absolute Maximum Ratings Symbol Value Units Supply Voltage VDD 36 V Supply Current IDD 50 mA Output Voltage VOUT 36 V Output Current IOUT 30 mA Operating Temperature Range TA -40 to +150 °C Storage Temperature Range TS -65 to 170 °C Maximum Junction Temperature TJ +175 °C Value Units Parameter Absolute Maximum Temperature Operating Temperature Range Symbol Temperature Suffix “E” TA -40 to 85 °C Temperature Suffix “K” TA -40 to 125 °C Temperature Suffix “L” TA -40 to 150 °C Exceeding the absolute maximum ratings may cause permanent damage.

The hysteresis is fixed at 5.0 mT. Best angular accuracy will be obtained when the magnetic circuit provides peak magnetic flux at the chip near the high end of the linear range of 500 mT. EMC protection using external components are recommended. Two possibilities are shown on the following page. Normally the South pole faces the unbranded side of the device. A North pole will enable a test sequence used in factory 4 V1.50 Nov. 26, 2012 SS817 Hall-Effect Cam Sensor Applications Examples Edge Sensing(unidirectional) Lobe Sensing(bidirectional) Flux Concentration – Tooth Positon Flux Concentration – Valley Positon Recommended Writing and Severe Environment and Minimum Protection Circuit Automotive Protection Circuit 5 V1.50 Nov. 26, 2012 SS817 Hall-Effect Cam Sensor 0.76 0.05 1.58 0.1 TO-92 Package Physical Characteristics 2.13 3 1 1.40 45 1 4.0 0.02 1 2 3 3.0 0.02 Sensor Location Active Area Depth: 0.84(Nom) 3 1 6 1 3 1 6 1 1 2 3 0.05 0.05 2.3. 0.1 3 ‐ 0.44 14 0.5 3 ‐ 0.39 Notes: 1) Controlling dimension : mm ; 2) Leads must be free of flash and plating voids ; 3) Do not bend leads within 1 mm of lead to package interface ; 1.27 Ordering Information Part No. Pb-free Temperature Code Package Code Packing SS817EUA YES -40°C to 85°C TO-92 Bulk, 1000 pieces/bag SS817KUA YES -40°C to 125°C TO-92 Bulk, 1000 pieces/bag SS817LUA YES -40°C to 150°C TO-92 Bulk, 1000 pieces/bag 6 V1.50 Nov. 26, 2012
