Release Note: Revision bars indicate significant changes to the previous edition. 1. Introduction The HAL805 is a recent member of the Micronas family of programmable linear Hall sensors. It offers opencircuit detection and individual programming of different sensors which are in parallel to the same supply voltage. The HAL805 is an universal magnetic field sensor with a linear output based on the Hall effect. The IC is designed and produced in sub-micron CMOS technology and can be used for angle or distance measurements if combined with a rotating or moving magnet. The 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 sensor has a ratiometric output characteristic, which means that the output voltage is proportional to the magnetic flux and the supply voltage. The HAL805 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, 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 sensor accuracy. The sensor is designed for hostile industrial and automotive applications and operates with typically 5 V supply voltage in the ambient temperature range from −40 °C up to 150 °C. The HAL805 is available in the very small leaded packages TO92UT-1 and TO92UT-2. 1.1. Major Applications Due to the sensor’s versatile programming characteristics, the HAL805 is the optimal system solution for applications such as: – contactless potentiometers, – angle sensors, – distance measurements, – magnetic field and current measurement. 1.2. Features – high-precision linear Hall effect sensor with ratiometric output and digital signal processing – multiple programmable magnetic characteristics in a non-volatile memory (EEPROM) with redundancy and lock function – open-circuit detection (ground and supply line break detection) – for programming an individual sensor within several sensors in parallel to the same supply voltage, a selection can be done via the output pin The HAL805 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 (like mechanical angle, distance, or current). Individual adjustment of each sensor during the customer’s manufacturing process is possible. With this calibration procedure, the tolerances of the sensor, the magnet, 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. – temperature characteristics are programmable for matching all common magnetic materials In addition, the temperature compensation of the Hall IC can be fit to all common magnetic materials by programming first and second order temperature coefficients of the Hall sensor sensitivity. This enables operation over the full temperature range with high accuracy. – overvoltage and reverse-voltage protection at all pins The calculation of the individual sensor characteristics and the programming of the EEPROM memory can 4 – programmable clamping function – programming through a modulation of the supply voltage – operates from −40 °C up to 150 °C ambient 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 2 kHz – magnetic characteristics extremely robust against mechanical stress – short-circuit protected push-pull output – EMC and ESD optimized design Feb. 14, 2006; 6251-513-3DS Micronas HAL 805 DATA SHEET 1.3. Marking Code 1.5. Hall Sensor Package Codes The HAL805 has a marking on the package surface (branded side). This marking includes the name of the sensor and the temperature range.

Functional Description analog output is switched off during the communication. 2.1. General Function The external magnetic field component perpendicular to the branded side of the package generates a Hall voltage. The Hall IC is sensitive to magnetic north and south polarity. 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 push-pull output transistor stage. The function and the parameters for the DSP are explained in Section 2.2. on page 8. Several sensors in parallel to the same supply and ground line can be programmed individually. The selection of each sensor is done via its output pin. 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 EEPROM cells. In addition, the sensor IC is equipped with devices for overvoltage and reverse-voltage protection at all pins. The setting of the LOCK register disables the programming of the EEPROM memory for all time. This register cannot be reset. VDD (V) 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 sensor generates an analog output voltage. After detecting a command, the sensor reads or writes the memory and answers with a digital signal on the output pin.

Digital Signal Processing and EEPROM The DSP is the main part of this sensor and performs the signal conditioning. The parameters for the DSP are stored in the EEPROM registers. The details are shown in Fig. 2–3. Filter = 2 kHz 2000 ADC- 1500 READOUT Terminology: SENSITIVITY: name of the register or register value Sensitivity: 1000 name of the parameter 500 The EEPROM registers consist of three groups: Group 1 contains the registers for the adaption of the sensor to the magnetic system: MODE for selecting the magnetic field range and filter frequency, TC and TCSQ for the temperature characteristics of the magnetic sensitivity. Group 2 contains the registers for defining the output characteristics: SENSITIVITY, VOQ, CLAMP-LOW, and CLAMP-HIGH. The output characteristic of the sensor is defined by these 4 parameters (see Fig. 2–4 and Fig. 2–5 for examples). – The parameter VOQ (Output Quiescent Voltage) corresponds to the output voltage at B = 0 mT. – The parameter Sensitivity defines the magnetic sensitivity: Sensitivity = ΔVOUT −500 −1000 Range 150 mT Range 90 mT −1500 Range 60 mT Range 30 mT −2000 −200 −100 0 100 200 mT B Fig. 2–6: Typical ADC-READOUT versus magnetic field for filter = 2 kHz ΔB – The output voltage can be calculated as: VOUT ∼ Sensitivity × B + VOQ 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 Micronas registers and LOCK for the locking of all registers. The Micronas registers are programmed and locked during production and are read-only for the customer. These registers are used for oscillator frequency trimming, A/D 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 (operates with magnetic north and south poles at the branded side of the package) to a digital value. Positive values correspond to a magnetic north pole on the branded side of the package. The digital signal is filtered in the internal low-pass filter and is readable in the ADC-READOUT register. Depending on the programmable magnetic range of the Hall IC, the operating range of the A/D converter is from −30 mT...+30 mT up to −150 mT...+150 mT. 8 0 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 ADC-READOUT at any given magnetic field depends on the programmed magnetic field range but also on the filter frequency. Fig. 2–6 shows the typical ADC-READOUT values for the different magnetic field ranges with the filter frequency set to 2 kHz. The relationship between the minimum and maximum ADCREADOUT values and the filter frequency setting is listed in the following table. Filter Frequency ADC-READOUT RANGE 80 Hz −3968...3967 160 Hz −1985...1985 500 Hz −5292...5290 1 kHz −2646...2645 2 kHz −1512...1511 Feb. 14, 2006; 6251-513-3DS Micronas HAL 805 DATA SHEET TC and TCSQ Note: During application design, it should be taken into consideration that the maximum and minimum ADC-READOUT is not exceeded during calibration and operation of the Hall IC. Consequently, the maximum and minimum magnetic fields that may occur in the operational range of a specific application should not saturate the A/D converter. Please note that the A/D converter saturates at magnetic fields well above, respectively below, the magnetic range limits. This large safety band between specified magnetic range and true operational range helps to avoid any saturation. Range The RANGE bits are the three lowest bits of the MODE register; they define the magnetic field range of the A/ D converter. Magnetic Field Range RANGE −30 mT...30 mT 0 −40 mT...40 mT 4 −60 mT...60 mT 5 −75 mT...75 mT 1 −80 mT...80 mT 6 −90 mT...90 mT 2 −100 mT...100 mT 7 −150 mT...150 mT 3 For all calculations, the digital value from the magnetic field of the A/D converter is used. This digital information is readable from the ADC-READOUT register. Sensitivity = 80 Hz 0 160 Hz 1 500 Hz 2 1 kHz 3 2 kHz 4 Micronas ΔVOUT * 2048 ΔADC-READOUT * VDD VOQ The FILTER bits are the three highest bits of the MODE register; they define the −3 dB frequency of the digital low pass filter. FILTER Sensitivity 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. Sensitivity = 1 corresponds to an increase of the output voltage by VDD if the ADC-READOUT increases by 2048. Filter −3 dB Frequency The temperature dependence of the magnetic sensitivity can be adapted to different magnetic materials in order to compensate for the change of the magnetic strength with temperature. The adaption is done by programming the TC (Temperature Coefficient) and the TCSQ registers (Quadratic Temperature Coefficient). Thereby, the slope and the curvature of the temperature dependence of the magnetic sensitivity can be matched to the magnet and the sensor assembly. As a result, the output voltage characteristic can be fixed over the full temperature range. The sensor can compensate for linear temperature coefficients ranging from about −3100 ppm/K up to 400 ppm/K and quadratic coefficients from about −5 ppm/K² to 5 ppm/K². Please refer to Section 4.3. on page 23 for the recommended settings for different linear temperature coefficients. The VOQ register contains the parameter for the adder in the DSP. VOQ is the output voltage without external magnetic field (B = 0 mT, respectively ADC-READOUT = 0) 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: VOUTmax = VOQ + VDD For calibration in the system environment, a 2-point adjustment procedure (see Section 2.3.) is recommended. The suitable Sensitivity and VOQ values for each sensor can be calculated individually by this procedure. Feb. 14, 2006; 6251-513-3DS 9 HAL 805 DATA SHEET Clamping Voltage 2.3. Calibration Procedure The output voltage range can be clamped in order to detect failures like shorts to VDD or GND or an open circuit. 2.3.1. General Procedure 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 2.44 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 2.44 mV. LOCKR By setting this 1-bit register, all registers will be locked, and the sensor 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. 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 and the corresponding software for the input of the register values. In this section, programming of the sensor using this programming tool is explained. Please refer to Section 5. on page 25 for information about programming without this tool. For the individual calibration of each sensor in the customer application, a two point adjustment is recommended (see Fig. 2–7 for an example). When using the application kit, the calibration can be done in three steps: Step 1: Input of the registers which need not be adjusted individually The magnetic circuit, the magnetic material with its temperature characteristics, the filter frequency, and low and high clamping voltage are given for this application. Warning: This register cannot be reset! ADC-READOUT Therefore, the values of the following registers should be identical for all sensors of the customer application. This 14-bit register delivers the actual digital value of the applied magnetic field before the signal processing. This register can be read out and is the basis for the calibration procedure of the sensor in the system environment. – FILTER (according to the maximum signal frequency) – RANGE (according to the maximum magnetic field at the sensor position) – TC and TCSQ (depends on the material of the magnet and the other temperature dependencies of the application) – CLAMP-LOW and CLAMP-HIGH (according to the application requirements) Write the appropriate settings into the HAL805 registers. 10 Feb. 14, 2006; 6251-513-3DS Micronas HAL 805 DATA SHEET Step 2: Calculation of VOQ and Sensitivity 2.3.2. Calibration of the Angle Sensor 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. The following description explains the calibration procedure using an angle sensor as an example. The required output characteristic is shown in Fig. 2–7. Low clamping voltage ≤ VOUT1,2 ≤ High clamping voltage – the angle range is from −25° to 25° – temperature coefficient of the magnet: −500 ppm/K For highest accuracy of the sensor, 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. Set the system to calibration point 1 and read the register ADC-READOUT. The result is the value ADCREADOUT1. V 5 Clamp-high = 4.5 V Calibration point 1 VOUT 4 Now, set the system to calibration point 2, read the register ADC-READOUT again, and get the value ADC-READOUT2. 3 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: 2 Sensitivity = VOUT1 − VOUT2 ADC-READOUT1 − ADC-READOUT2 * 2048 VDD 1 VOQ = VOUT1 − Clamp-low = 0.5 V ADC-READOUT1 * Sensitivity * VDD 2048 Calibration point 2 0 −30 This calculation has to be done individually for each sensor. −20 −10 0 10 20 30 ° Angle Next, write the calculated values for Sensitivity and VOQ into the IC for adjusting the sensor. Fig. 2–7: Example for output characteristics The sensor is now calibrated for the customer application. However, the programming can be changed again and again if necessary. Step 3: Locking the Sensor The last step is activating the LOCK function with the “LOCK” command. Please note that the LOCK function becomes effective after power-down and power-up of the Hall IC. The sensor is now locked and does not respond to any programming or reading commands. Warning: This register cannot be reset! Micronas Feb. 14, 2006; 6251-513-3DS 11 HAL 805 DATA SHEET Step 1: Input of the registers which need not be adjusted individually The register values for the following registers are given for all applications: – FILTER Select the filter frequency: 500 Hz – RANGE Select the magnetic field range: 30 mT – TC For this magnetic material: 6 Software Calibration: Use the menu CALIBRATE from the PC software and enter the values 4.5 V for VOUT1 and 0.5 V for VOUT2. Set the system to calibration point 1 (angle 1 = −25°), hit the button “Read ADC-Readout1”, set the system to calibration point 2 (angle 2 = 25°), hit the button “Read ADC-Readout2”, and hit the button “Calculate”. The software will then calculate the appropriate VOQ and Sensitivity. – TCSQ For this magnetic material: 14 This calculation has to be done individually for each sensor. Now, write the calculated values with the “write and store” command into the HAL805 for programming the sensor. – CLAMP-LOW For our example: 0.5 V Step 3: Locking the Sensor – CLAMP-HIGH For our example: 4.5 V Enter these values in the software, and use the “write and store” command for permanently writing the values in the registers. The last step is activating the LOCK function with the “LOCK” command. Please note that the LOCK function becomes effective after power-down and power-up of the Hall IC. The sensor is now locked and does not respond to any programming or reading commands. Step 2: Calculation of VOQ and Sensitivity Warning: This register cannot be reset! There are two ways to calculate the values for VOQ and Sensitivity. Manual Calculation: Set the system to calibration point 1 (angle 1 = −25°) and read the register ADC-READOUT. For our example, the result is ADC-READOUT1 = −2500. Next, set the system to calibration point 2 (angle 2 = 25°), and read the register ADC-READOUT again. For our example, the result is ADC-READOUT2 = +2350. With these measurements and the targets VOUT1 = 4.5 V and VOUT2 = 0.5 V, the values for Sensitivity and VOQ are calculated as Sensitivity = VOQ = 4.5 V − 12 4.5 V − 0.5 V −2500 − 2350 * 2048 = −0.3378 5V −2500 * (−0.3378) * 5 V = 2.438 V 2048 Feb. 14, 2006; 6251-513-3DS Micronas HAL 805 DATA SHEET 3.

Application Notes 4.3. Temperature Compensation 4.1. Application Circuit The relationship between the temperature coefficient of the magnet and the corresponding TC and TCSQ codes for linear compensation is given in the following table. In addition to the linear change of the magnetic field with temperature, the curvature can be adjusted as well. For this purpose, other TC and TCSQ combinations are required which are not shown in the table. Please contact Micronas for more detailed information on this higher order temperature compensation. For EMC protection, it is recommended to connect one ceramic 4.7 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 4.7 kOhm 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. The HAL810, HAL815, and HAL805 contain the same temperature compensation circuits. If an optimal setting for the HAL810, HAL815 is already available, the same settings may be used for the HAL805.

Use of two HAL805 in Parallel Two different HAL805 sensors 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 Hall 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. 10 nF 4.7 nF 400 31 6 300 28 7 200 24 8 100 21 9 0 18 10 −50 17 10 −90 16 11 −130 15 11 −170 14 11 −200 13 12 −240 12 12 −280 11 12 −320 10 13 HAL 805 Sensor B −360 9 13 VDD −410 8 13 OUT A & Select A −450 7 13 −500 6 14 −550 5 14 −600 4 14 −650 3 14 −700 2 15 −750 1 15 OUT B & Select B 4.7 nF GND Fig. 4–2: Parallel operation of two HAL 805 Micronas TCSQ 4.7 kΩ GND HAL 805 Sensor A TC Feb. 14, 2006; 6251-513-3DS 23 HAL 805 Temperature Coefficient of Magnet (ppm/K) DATA SHEET TC TCSQ 4.4. Undervoltage Behavior In a voltage range below 4.5 V to approximately 3.5 V, the operation of the HAL805 is typically given and predictable for the most sensors. Some of the parameters may be out of the specification. Below about 3.5 V, the digital processing is reset. If the supply voltage once again rises above about 3.5 V, a startup time of about 20 μs elapses for the digital processing to occur. As long as the supply voltage is still above about 3.2 V, the analog output is kept at its last valid value ratiometric to VDD. Below about 3 V, the entire sensor will reset. −810 0 15 −860 −1 16 −910 −2 16 −960 −3 16 −1020 −4 17 −1070 −5 17 −1120 −6 17 4.5.

For VDD = 5.5 V, Rth = 200 K/W and IDD = 10 mA the temperature difference ΔT = 11 K. For all sensors, the junction temperature TJ is specified. The maximum ambient temperature TAmax can be calculated as: TAmax = TJmax −ΔT 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. Applications with this arrangement passed the EMC tests according to the product standards ISO 7637 part 3 (Electrical transient transmission by capacitive or inductive coupling) and part 4 (Radiated disturbances).

Programming of the Sensor – Read a register (see Fig. 5–3) After evaluating this command, the sensor answers with the Acknowledge Bit, 14 Data Bits, and the Data Parity Bit on the output. 5.1. Definition of Programming Pulses The sensor is addressed by modulating a serial telegram on the supply voltage. The sensor 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 sensor answers with the Acknowledge Bit. After the delay time tw, the supply voltage rises up to the programming voltage. – Activate a sensor (see Fig. 5–5) If more than one sensor is connected to the supply line, selection can be done by first deactivating all sensors. The output of all sensors will be pulled to ground by the internal 10 kΩ resistors. With an Activate pulse on the appropriate output pin, an individual sensor can be selected. All following commands will only be accepted from the activated sensor. 5.2.

Telegram Codes Data Bits (DAT) The 14 Data Bits contain the register information. Sync Bit Each telegram starts with the Sync Bit. This logical “0” pulse defines the exact timing for tp0. The registers use different number formats for the Data Bits. These formats are explained in Section 5.4. Command Bits (COM) In the Write command, the last bits are valid. If, for example, the TC register (6 bits) is written, only the last 6 bits are valid. The Command code contains 3 bits and is a binary number. Table 5–2 shows the available commands and the corresponding codes for the HAL805. In the Read command, the first bits are valid. If, for example, the TC register (6 bits) is read, only the first 6 bits are valid. Command Parity Bit (CP) Data Parity Bit (DP) 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. 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. Address Bits (ADR) Acknowledge The Address code contains 4 bits and is a binary number. Table 5–3 shows the available addresses for the HAL805 registers. After each telegram, the output answers with the Acknowledge signal. This logical “0” pulse defines the exact timing for tpOUT. Address Parity Bit (AP) 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.

Number Formats Two-complementary number: The most significant bit is given as first, the least significant bit as last digit. The first digit of positive numbers is “0”, the rest of the number is a binary number. Negative numbers start with “1”. In order to calculate the absolute value of the number, calculate the complement of the remaining digits and add “1”. Example: 101001 represents 41 decimal. Example: Binary number: 0101001 represents +41 decimal 1010111 represents −41 decimal Signed binary number: The first digit represents the sign of the following binary number (1 for negative, 0 for positive sign).

Register Information – This register is read only. – The register range is from −8192 up to 8191. CLAMP-LOW – The register range is from 0 up to 1023. DEACTIVATE – The register value is calculated by: CLAMP-LOW = Low Clamping Voltage VDD * 2048 – This register can only be written. – The register has to be written with 2063 decimal (80F hexadecimal) for the deactivation. – The sensor can be reset with an Activate pulse on the output pin or by switching off and on the supply voltage. CLAMP-HIGH – The register range is from 0 up to 2047. – The register value is calculated by: CLAMP-HIGH = High Clamping Voltage VDD 5.6. Programming Information * 2048 VOQ – The register range is from −1024 up to 1023. – The register value is calculated by: VOQ = VOQ VDD * 1024 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 is not important. ERASE and PROM act on all registers in parallel. If all HAL805 registers 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. SENSITIVITY – The register range is from −8192 up to 8191. – The register value is calculated by: SENSITIVITY = Sensitivity * 2048 TC and TCSQ During all communication sequences, the customer has to check if the communication with the sensor was successful. This means that the acknowledge and the parity bits sent by the sensor 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. – The TC register range is from −31 up to 31. – The TCSQ register range is from 0 up to 31. Please refer Section 4.2. on page 23 for the recommended values. MODE – The register range is from 0 up to 63 and contains the settings for FILTER and RANGE: MODE = FILTER * 8 + RANGE Note: For production and qualification tests, it is mandatory to set the LOCK bit after final adjustment and programming of HAL805. The LOCK function is active after the next power-up of the sensor. Micronas also recommends sending an additional ERASE command after sending the LOCK command. The success of the Lock Process should be checked by reading at least one sensor register after locking and/or by an analog check of the sensors output signal. Electrostatic Discharges (ESD) may disturb the programming pulses. Please take precautions against ESD. Please refer Section 2.2. on page 8 for the available FILTER and RANGE values.
