A3282 Chopper-Stabilized Hall Effect Latch GND Package LH, 3-pin Surface Mount 3 1 3 2 VCC VOUT 2 1 Package UA, 3-pin SIP The A3282 Hall-effect sensor is a temperature stable, stress-resistant latch. Superior high-temperature performance is made possible through an Allegro® patented dynamic offset cancellation that utilizes chopper-stabilization. This method reduces the offset voltage normally caused by device overmolding, temperature dependencies, and thermal stress. The A3282 complements the current Allegro family of chopper-stabilized latching sensors. The A3282 includes the following on a single silicon chip: voltage regulator, Hallvoltage generator, small-signal amplifier, chopper stabilization, Schmitt trigger, and a short circuit protected open-drain output. Advanced BiCMOS wafer fabrication processing is used to take advantage of low-voltage requirements, component matching, very low input-offset errors, and small component geometries. This device requires the presence of both south and north polarity magnetic fields for operation. In the presence of a south polarity field of sufficient strength, the device output latches on, and only switches off when a north polarity field of sufficient strength is present. 1 2 3 VCC GND VOUT The A3282 is rated for operation between the ambient temperatures –40°C and 85°C for the E temperature range, and –40°C to 150°C for the L temperature range. The two package styles available provide magnetically optimized solutions for most applications. Package LH is an SOT23W, a miniature low-profile surface-mount package, while package UA is a three-lead ultramini SIP for throughhole mounting. Each package is available in a lead (Pb) free version, with 100% matte tin plated leadframes. 1 2 3 ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS Supply Voltage, VCC .......................................... 28 V Reverse-Supply Voltage, VRCC ........................ –18 V Output Off Voltage, VOUT ............................... 26.5 V Output Current, IOUTSINK ...........

After turn-on, the output voltage is VOUT(SAT). The output transistor is capable of sinking current up to the short circuit current limit, IOM, which is a minimum of 30 mA. Note that the device latches, that is, a south pole of sufficient strength towards the branded surface of the device turns the device on. The device remains on if the south pole is removed. When the magnetic field is reduced below the release point, BRP , the device output turns off (goes high). The difference in the magnetic operate and release points is the hysteresis, BHYS , of the device. This built-in hysteresis allows clean switching of the output even in the presence of external mechanical vibration and electrical noise. Powering-on the device in the hysteresis region (less than BOP and higher than BRP) allows an indeterminate output state. The correct state is attained after the first excursion beyond BOP or BRP . Applications It is strongly recommended that an external 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 chopper stabilization technique. As is shown in Panel B of figure 1, a 0.1µF capacitor is typical. Extensive applications information on magnets and Hall-effect sensors is available in: • Hall-Effect IC Applications Guide, AN27701, • Hall-Effect Devices: Gluing, Potting, Encapsulating, Lead Welding and Lead Forming, AN27703.1 • Soldering Methods for Allegro’s Products – SMT and ThroughHole, AN26009 All are provided in Allegro Electronic Data Book, AMS-702 and the Allegro Web site: www.allegromicro.com (B) (A) VS V+ VOUT VCC Switch to Low Switch to High VCC CBYP 0.1 µF VOUT(SAT) 0 BOP B– BRP 0 A3282 RLOAD VOUT Sensor Output GND B+ BHYS Figure 1: Switching Behavior of Latches. In Panel A, on the horizontal axis, the B+ direction indicates increasing south polarity magnetic field strength, and the B– direction indicates decreasing south polarity field strength (including the case of increasing north polarity).

This voltage is disproportionally small relative to the offset that can be produced at the output of the Hall sensor. This makes it difficult to process the signal while maintaining an accurate, reliable output over the specified operating temperature and voltage ranges. Chopper stabilization is a unique approach used to minimize Hall offset on the chip. The patented Allegro technique, namely Dynamic Quadrature Offset Cancellation, removes key sources of the output drift induced by thermal and mechanical stresses. This offset reduction technique is based on a signal modulationdemodulation process. The undesired offset signal is separated from the magnetic-field-induced signal in the frequency domain, through modulation. The subsequent demodulation acts as a modulation process for the offset, causing the magnetic-fieldinduced signal to recover its original spectrum at baseband, while the dc offset becomes a high-frequency signal. The magnetic-field-induced signal then can pass through a low-pass filter, while the modulated dc offset is suppressed. This configuration is illustrated in figure 2. The chopper stabilization technique uses a 200 kHz high-frequency clock. For demodulation process, a sample and hold technique is used, where the sampling is performed at twice the chopper frequency (400 kHz). This high-frequency operation allows a greater sampling rate, which results in higher accuracy and faster signal-processing capability. This approach desensitizes the chip to the effects of thermal and mechanical stresses, and produces devices that have extremely stable quiescent Hall output voltages and precise recoverability after temperature cycling. This technique is made possible through the use of a BiCMOS process, which allows the use of low-offset, low-noise amplifiers in combination with high-density logic integration and sample-and-hold circuits. The repeatability of magnetic-field-induced switching is affected slightly by a chopper technique. However, the Allegro highfrequency chopping approach minimizes the affect of jitter and makes it imperceptible in most applications. Applications that are more likely to be sensitive to such degradation are those requiring precise sensing of alternating magnetic fields; for example, speed sensing of ring-magnet targets. For such applications, Allegro recommends its digital sensor families with lower sensitivity to jitter. For more information on those devices, contact your Allegro sales representative.

Under certain combinations of peak conditions, reliable operation may require derating supplied power or improving the heat dissipation properties of the application. This section presents a procedure for correlating factors affecting operating TJ. (Thermal data is also available on the Allegro MicroSystems Web site.) The Package Thermal Resistance, RθJA, is a figure of merit summarizing the ability of the application and the device to dissipate heat from the junction (die), through all paths to the ambient air. Its primary component is the Effective Thermal Conductivity, K, of the printed circuit board, including adjacent devices and traces. Radiation from the die through the device case, RθJC, is relatively small component of RθJA. Ambient air temperature, TA, and air motion are significant external factors, damped by overmolding. The effect of varying power levels (Power Dissipation, PD), can be estimated. The following formulas represent the fundamental relationships used to estimate TJ, at PD. PD = VIN × IIN (1) ∆T = PD × RθJA (2) TJ = TA + ∆T (3) Example: Reliability for VCC at TA = 150°C, package LH, using a low-K PCB. Observe the worst-case ratings for the device, specifically: RθJA = 228 °C/W, TJ(max) = 165°C, VCC(max) = 24 V, and ICC(max) = 5 mA. Calculate the maximum allowable power level, PD(max). First, invert equation 3: ∆Tmax = TJ(max) – TA = 165 °C – 150 °C = 15 °C This provides the allowable increase to TJ resulting from internal power dissipation. Then, invert equation 2: PD(max) = ∆Tmax ÷ RθJA = 15°C ÷ 228 °C/W = 66 mW Finally, invert equation 1 with respect to voltage: VCC(est) = PD(max) ÷ ICC(max) = 66 mW ÷ 5 mA = 13 V The result indicates that, at TA, the application and device can dissipate adequate amounts of heat at voltages ≤VCC(est). Compare VCC(est) to VCC(max). If VCC(est) ≤ VCC(max), then reliable operation between VCC(est) and VCC(max) requires enhanced RθJA. If VCC(est) ≥ VCC(max), then operation between VCC(est) and VCC(max) is reliable under these conditions. For example, given common conditions such as: TA= 25°C, VCC = 12 V, ICC = 1.5 mA, and RθJA = 165 °C/W, then: PD = VCC × ICC = 12 V × 1.5 mA = 18 mW ∆T = PD × RθJA = 18 mW × 165 °C/W = 3°C TJ = TA + ∆T = 25°C + 3°C = 28°C A worst-case estimate, PD(max), represents the maximum allowable power level (VCC(max), ICC(max)), without exceeding TJ(max), at a selected RθJA and TA. 9 A3282-DS Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. 115 Northeast Cutoff, Box 15036 Worcester, Massachusetts 01615-0036 (508) 853-5000 www.allegromicro.com A3282 Chopper-Stabilized Hall Effect Latch Package LH, 3-Pin (SOT-23W) Package UA, 3-Pin 10 A3282-DS Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. 115 Northeast Cutoff, Box 15036 Worcester, Massachusetts 01615-0036 (508) 853-5000 www.allegromicro.com A3282 Chopper-Stabilized Hall Effect Latch The products described herein are manufactured under one or more of the following U.S. patents: 5,045,920; 5,264,783; 5,442,283; 5,389,889; 5,581,179; 5,517,112; 5,619,137; 5,621,319; 5,650,719; 5,686,894; 5,694,038; 5,729,130; 5,917,320; and other patents pending.
