3 At power-on, a die will not respond to commands until V
CC rises above V UVLOHI. After that, the die will perform and respond normally until V CC drops below V UVLOLOW .
4 Characterization data shows negligible accuracy degradation at supply voltages between 4.35 V and 4.50 V. Significant degradation in accuracy may occur
below 4.30 V.
5 VCC Low Threshold Flag will be sent via the SPI interface as part of the angle measurement.
6 During the power-on phase, the A1334 SPI transactions are not guaranteed.
7 Each die includes a linear regulator. The output voltage and current specifications are to aid in PCB design. The pin is not intended to drive any external circuitry.
8 Parameter is not guaranteed at final test. Values for this characteristic are determined by design.
9 The A1334 operates in magnetic fields lower than 300 G, but with reduced accuracy and resolution.
10 Contact Allegro for field optimization. In general, operation with larger magnetic field values result in improved performance (see Figures 3 and 4).
11 RES
ANGLE represents the number of bits of data available for reading from the die registers.
12 Effective Resolution is calculated using the formula below:

( )
32
log2 (360) - log2
l
l=1
where σ is the Standard Deviation based on thirty measurements taken at each of the 32 angular positions, I = 11.25, 22.5, … 360.
The rate at which a new angle reading will be ready.
To calculate Low RPM mode, time = 25 × 2AVG. Given AVG = 011 = 3 (decimal), so 23 = 8.
15 In general, Allegro’s angle sensor ICs are more accurate when stronger magnetic fields (i.e. 900 G) are used. Please contact Allegro for information regarding
how users can realize higher accuracy performance from Allegro’s angle sensor ICs by using stronger magnetic fields.
16 Value reflects 3 standard deviations.
17 After qualification testing, a typical IC drifted less than 0.5 degrees; however, after certain long duration stresses (for example 1000 cycles of -65 to 175 degree
C temperature cycling), a small number of devices drifted by approximately 1.5 degrees.
18 Maximum value based on worst case simulations.
19 One sigma value at 300 G. Operation with a larger magnetic field results in improved noise performance. For 600 G operation noise reduced by 50% vs 300 G.

A1334
Precision Hall-Effect Angle Sensor IC
FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION
Operational Modes
The A1334 angle sensor device is designed to support a wide
variety of automotive applications requiring measuring 0° to 360°
angle positions.
An option for two electrically-independent die in the same
package provides solid-state consistency and reliability. Each die
SPI port can be configured in a different RPM mode. The data
output selection is controlled by the address request in the SPI
Read command.
The A1334 has dual identical system-on-chip (SoC) architecture.
The output of each die is used by the host microcontroller to
provide a single channel of target data.
Angle Measurement
The A1334 can monitor the angular position of a rotating magnet
at speeds ranging from 0 to more than 7600 rpm. At lower
rotational speeds, the A1334 provides high-resolution angle measurement accuracy. It can also support higher rates of rotational
speeds at reduced levels of angle measurement accuracy.
The A1334 can be configured to operate in two angular measurement modes of operation: Low RPM mode, and High RPM
mode. For applications that have a speed range from 0 to 500 rpm
(can vary with AVG), the Low RPM mode provides increased
resolution. For applications above 500 rpm, configuring the
A1334 in High RPM mode provides angle measurements with
standard resolution. Above 7600 rpm, the A1334 continues to
provide angle data; however, the accuracy is proportionally
reduced.
The actual update rate of Low RPM mode can be changed by
setting the AVG bits in the EEPROM. (See the appendix Programming Reference for details.) The selection of Low RPM mode or
High RPM mode can be programmed, via the Angle_Meas_Mode
bit, for the expected maximum rotational speed of the magnet
in operation to provide the highest corresponding level of angle
accuracy. However, the A1334 provides valid output data regardless of the selected mode and the application speed.
Although the range of the resolution of the measurement data
output, RESANGLE, is determined by the selection of either High
RPM or Low RPM mode, the measurement is also affected by
the intensity (B, in gauss) of the applied magnetic field from the
target. At lower intensities, a reduced signal-to-noise ratio will
cause one or two LSBs to change state randomly due to noise,
and the effective DAC resolution is reduced. These factors work
together, so when High RPM mode is selected, the effective
range of resolution is 8 to 10 bits (from lower to higher field
intensities), and in Low RPM mode, the effective range is 11 to
12 bits, depending on field strength and AVG selection.
Regardless of the field intensity and mode selection, the transmission protocol and number formatting remains the same. The MSB
is always transmitted first. The entire number should be read.
The Output Angle is always calculated at maximum resolution.
To be more explicit:
AngleOUT = 360 (°) × D[12:0] / (213)
(1)
This formula is always true, regardless of the applied field
intensity. What changes with the field and speed setting is how
uniform the LSBs of the measurement data (D 12:x) will be.
When using the dual die version of the A1334, it should be noted
that the secondary die (E2) is rotated 180° relative to the primary
die (E1). This results in a difference in measurement of approximately 180° between the two die, given perfect alignment of each
die to the target magnet.
This phenomenon can be counteracted by subtracting the offset
using a microprocessor. Alternatively, the difference between the
two die can be compensated for using the EEPROM for setting
the Reference Angle.
System-Level Timing
The A1334 outputs a new angle measurement every tANG µs. In
High RPM mode, the A1334 outputs a new angle measurement
every tANG µs, with an effective resolution of 10 bits. There
is, however, a latency of tLAT , from when the rotating magnet
is sampled by the CVH to when the sampled data has been
completely transmitted over the SPI interface. Because an SPI
interface Read command is not synchronous with the CVH timing, but instead is polled by the external host microcontroller, the
latency can vary. For single back-to-back SPI transactions (first
transaction is sending the Read register 0x0 command, second is
retrieving the angle data) the following scenarios are possible:
• Worst case: 2 CVH cycle + 2 SPI cycles
• Best case: 1.5 SPI cycles; 2 µs, assuming a 10 MHz SPI clock

Precision Hall-Effect Angle Sensor IC
Power-Up
Diagnostics
Upon applying power to the A1334, the device automatically runs
through an initialization routine. The purpose of this initialization
is to ensure that the device comes up in the same predictable
operating condition every power cycle. This initialization routine
takes a finite amount of time to complete, which is referred to as
Power-On Time, tPO .
The A1334 supports a number of on-chip self-diagnostics to
enable the host microcontroller to assess the operational status of
each die. For example, the A1334 can detect a low supply voltage
and includes an onboard watchdog timer to monitor that internal
clocks are running properly.
The A1334 wakes up in a default state that sets all SPI registers
to their default value. It is important to note that, regardless of the
state of the device before a power cycle, the device will re-power
with default values. For example, on every power-up, the device
will power up in the mode set in the EEPROM bit RPM. The
state of the EEPROM is unchanged.

Precision Hall-Effect Angle Sensor IC
APPLICATION INFORMATION
Calculating Target Zero Degree Angle
Bypass Pin Usage
When shipped from the factory, the default angle value when
orientated as shown in Figure 2, is approximately 40º (220º on
secondary die). In some cases, the end user may want to program
an angle offset in the A1334 to compensate for variation in
magnetic assemblies, or for applications where absolute systemlevel readings are required.
The Bypass pin is required for proper device operation and is
intended to bypass internal IC nodes of the A1334. A 0.1 µF
capacitor must be placed in very close proximity to the Bypass
pin. It is not intended to be used to source external components.
To assist with PCB layout, please see the Operating Characteristics table for output voltage and current requirements.
The internal algorithm for computing the output angle is as
follows:
Changing Sampling Modes
AngleOUT = AngleRAW – Reference Angle
The A1334 features a High RPM sampling mode, and a Low
RPM sampling mode. The default power-on state of the A1334
is loaded from EEPROM. To configure the A1334 to Low RPM
mode, set the Operating mode to Low RPM mode by writing a
logic 1 to bit 2 (RPM) of the configuration commands (CTRL)
register, via the SPI interface.
(2)
The procedure to zero out the A1334 is quite simple. During final
application calibration and programming, position the magnet
above the A1334 in the required zero-degree position, and read
the angle from the A1334 using the SPI interface (AngleOUT).
From this angle, the Reference Angle required to program the
A1334 can be computed as follows:
Reference Angle = AngleOUT

alignment configurations.
The A1334 is designed to operate with magnets constructed with
a variety of magnetic materials, cylindrical geometries, and field
strengths, as shown in Table 2. To reach this end, Allegro offers
three different “Field Optimization” or trim levels; 300 G, 550 G
and 900 G. Figure 8 demonstrates the typical 25ºC performance
for these three trim levels over field strength. In general, higher
field strengths result in improved performance in terms of angle
error and angle noise (see Figures 3 and 4) To obtain maximum
performance, it is important to match the operating field with the
field trim level. Contact Allegro for more detailed information on
magnet selection and performance.
Figure 6 illustrates the behavior of alignment error when using
an 8 mm diameter magnet positioned above the branded face of
the package. The curve shows the relationship between absolute
angle error present on the output of the die versus eccentricity of
the die relative to the rotation axis of the magnet. The curve is the
same for both dies in the package.
Redundant Applications and Alignment Error
The A1334 dual die version is designed to be used in redundant
applications with a single magnet spinning over the two separate
dies that are mounted side-by-side in the same package. One
challenge with this configuration is correctly lining up the magnet
with the device package, so it is important to be aware of the
physical separation of the two dies. Figure 5 depicts two possible
The curve provides guidance to determine what the optimal magnet placement should be for a given application. For example,
given that the maximum spacing between the two dies is 1 mm,
if the center of the magnet rotation is placed at the midpoint
between the two dies, each die will have a maximum eccentricity
of 0.5 mm.
For applications with reduced accuracy requirements, considering
one die the primary and the other die the secondary, the magnet
axis of rotation could be positioned directly above the primary
die, and thus offset 1 mm from the secondary die, yielding zero
alignment error on the primary die, and approximately ±1° of
absolute error on the secondary die due to geometric mismatch.

A1334
Precision Hall-Effect Angle Sensor IC
System Timing and Error
The A1334 is a digital system, and therefore takes angle samples
at a fixed sampling rate. When using a sensing device with a
fixed sampling rate to sample a continuously moving target, there
will be error introduced that can be simply calculated with the
sampling rate of the device and the speed at which the magnetic
signal is changing. In the case of the A1334, the input signal is
rotating at various speeds, and the sampling rate of the A1334 is
fixed at ANG. The calculation would be:
ANG (µs) × angular velocity ( ° / µs) .
(4)
So the faster the magnetic object is spinning, the further behind in
angle the output signal will seem for a fixed sampling rate.
