HALL-EFFECT, DIRECTION-DETECTION SENSORS The A3421xKA and A3422xKA Hall-effect, direction-detection sensors are a new generation of special-function integrated sensors that are capable of sensing the direction of rotation of a ring magnet. These transducers provide separate digital outputs that provide information on magnet rotation speed, direction, and magnet pole count. These devices eliminate the major manufacturing hurdles encountered in fine-pitch direction-detection applications, namely maintaining accurate mechanical location between the two active Hall elements. Here, the two Hall elements are photolithographically aligned to better than 1 µm, as contrasted with 100 µm or worse mechanical location tolerance when manufactured discretely. These highly sensitive, temperature-stable, magnetic transducers are ideal for use in digital-encoder systems in the harsh environments of automotive or industrial applications. The A3421xKA is a high-hysteresis device designed for low-resolution pulse counting while the A3422xKA is a high-sensitivity device optimized for use with high-density magnets.

Extremely low-drift BiCMOS circuitry is used for the amplifiers to ensure symmetry between the two latches so that signal quadrature can be maintained. An on-chip voltage regulator allows the use of these devices from a 4.5 V to 18 V supply. Both devices have standard open-collector outputs; the logic operation of both devices is the same. Two operating temperature ranges are provided; suffix ‘E–’ is for the automotive and industrial temperature range of -40°C to +85°C, suffix ‘L–’ is for the automotive and military temperature range of -40°C to +150°C. The 5-pin ‘KA’ SIP package provides a cost-competitive solution to linear magnetic sensing in harsh environments.

GH-053-1 3421 AND 3422 HALL-EFFECT, DIRECTION-DETECTION SENSORS FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION The integrated circuit contains an internal voltage regulator that powers the Hall sensors and both the analog and digital circuitry. This regulator allows operation over a wide supply voltage range and provides some immunity to supply noise. The device also contains CMOS logic circuitry that decodes the direction of rotation of the ring magnet. Quadrature/Direction Detection. Internal logic circuitry provides outputs representing speed and direction of the magnetic field across the face of the package. For the direction signal to be appropriately updated, a quadrature relationship must be maintained between the ring magnet pole width*, the sensor-to-sensor spacing, and, to a lesser extent, the magnetic switch points. For optimal design, the sensor should be actuated with a ring magnet pole width* two times the sensor-to-sensor spacing. This will produce a sinusoidal magnetic field whose period (denoted as Τ) is then four times the sensor-to-sensor spacing. A quadrature relationship can also be maintained for a ring magnet that has a period that satisfies the relationship nΤ/4 = 1.5 mm, where n is any odd integer. Therefore, ring magnets with pole-pair spacings equal to 6 mm (n = 1), 2 mm (n = 3), 1.2 mm (n = 5), etc. are permitted. The response of the device to the magnetic field produced by a rotating ring magnet is shown on page 2. Note the phase shift between the two integrated sensors. * “Pole” refers to a single pole (North or South) unless stated as “pole pair” (North and South). www.allegromicro.com Outputs. The device provides three saturated outputs: DIRECTION, E1 OUTPUT, and SPEED. DIRECTION provides the direction output of the sensor and is defined as OFF (high) for the direction E1 to E2 and ON (low) for the direction E2 to E1. SPEED provides an XOR’d output of the two sensors. Because of internal delays, DIRECTION will always be updated before SPEED and is updated at every transition of E1 OUTPUT and E2 OUTPUT (internal) allowing the use of up-down counters without the loss of pulses. Power-On State. At power on, the logic circutry is reset to provide an OFF (high) at DIRECTION and an OFF (high) for E1 and E2 (internal) for magnetic fields less than BOP. This eliminates ambiguity when the device is powered up and either sensor detects a field between BOP and BRP. If either sensor is subjected to a field greater than BOP, the internal logic will set accordingly. 3421 AND 3422 HALL-EFFECT, DIRECTION-DETECTION SENSORS APPLICATIONS INFORMATION Operation with Fine-Pitch Ring Magnets. For targets with a circular pitch of less than 4 mm, a performance improvement can be observed by rotating the front face of the sensor subassembly (see below). This sensor rotation decreases the effective sensor-to-sensor spacing, provided that the Hall elements are not rotated beyond the width of the target. Applications. It is strongly recommended that an external 0.01 µF bypass capacitor be connected (in close proximity to the Hall sensor) between the supply and ground of the device to reduce both external noise and noise generated by the internal logic. The simplest form of magnet that will operate these devices is a ring magnet. Other methods of operation, such as linear magnets, are possible. Extensive applications information on magnets and Hall-effect sensors is also available in the “Hsall-Effect IC Applications Guide” which can be found in the latest issue of the Allegro MicroSystems Electronic Data Book, AMS-702 or Application Note 27701, or at 1.50 COS α (mm) 0.059 COS α (inch) www.allegromicro.com 0.059" 1.50 mm α Rotated sensor for fine-pitch ring magnets A TARGET FACE WIDTH, F >1.50 SIN α (mm) >0.059 SIN α (inch) 1 2 3 A 2 3 4 5 4 1 5 Dwg.
