Application Circuit
Device power is supplied through the VDD line. Power supply decoupling capacitors (100 nF ceramic) should be placed as near
as possible to pins 1 and 2 of the device. Additionally a 1μF (or larger) capacitor should be used for bulk decoupling of the VDD
supply rail as shown in Figure 4. VDDIO supplies power for the digital I/O pins SCL, SDA, and INT1.
The control signals SCL and SDA, are not tolerant of voltages more than VDDIO + 0.3 volts. If VDDIO is removed, the control
signals SCL and SDA will clamp any logic signals through their internal ESD protection diodes.

1. All values referred to VIH (min) and VIL (max) levels.
2. tHD;DAT is the data hold time that is measured from the falling edge of SCL, applies to data in transmission and the acknowledge.
3. A device must internally provide a hold time of at least 300 ns for the SDA signal (with respect to the VIH (min) of the SCL signal) to bridge the
undefined region of the falling edge of SCL.
4. The maximum tHD;DAT could be must be less than the maximum of tVD;DAT or tVD;ACK by a transition time. This device does not stretch the
LOW period (tLOW) of the SCL signal.
5. tVD;DAT = time for Data signal from SCL LOW to SDA output (HIGH or LOW, depending on which one is worse).
6. tVD;ACK = time for Acknowledgement signal from SCL LOW to SDA output (HIGH or LOW, depending on which one is worse).
7. A Fast mode I2C device can be used in a Standard mode I2C system, but the requirement tSU;DAT 250 ns must then be met. This will
automatically be the case if the device does not stretch the LOW period of the SCL signal. If such a device does stretch the LOW period of the
SCL signal, it must output the next data bit to the SDA line tr(max) + tSU;DAT = 1000 + 250 = 1250 ns (according to the Standard mode I2C
specification) before the SCL line is released. Also the acknowledge timing must meet this setup time
8. Cb = total capacitance of one bus line in pF.
9. The maximum tf for the SDA and SCL bus lines is specified at 300 ns. The maximum fall time for the SDA output stage tf is specified at 250 ns.
This allows series protection resistors to be connected in between the SDA and the SCL pins and the SDA/SCL bus lines without exceeding
the maximum specified tf.
10.In Fast mode Plus, fall time is specified the same for both output stage and bus timing. If series resistors are used, designers should allow for
this when considering bus timing.

I2C Pullup Resistor Selection
The SCL and SDA signals are driven by open-drain buffers and a pullup resistor is required to make the signals rise to the high
state. The value of the pullup resistors depends on the system I2C clock rate and the capacitance load on the I2C bus.
Higher resistance value pullup resistors consume less power, but have a slower the rise time (due to the RC time constant
between the bus capacitance and the pullup resistor) and will limit the I2C clock frequency.
Lower resistance value pullup resistors consume more power, but enable higher I2C clock operating frequencies.
High bus capacitance is due to long bus lines or a high number of I2C devices connected to the bus. A lower value resistance
pullup resistor is required in higher bus capacitance systems.
For standard 100 kHz clock I2C, pullup resistors typically are between 5k and 10 kΩ. For a heavily loaded bus, the pullup resistor
value may need to be reduced. For higher speed 400 kHz or 800 kHz clock I2C, bus capacitance will need to be kept low, in
addition to selecting a lower value resistance pullup resistor. Pullup resistors for high speed buses typically are about 1 KΩ.
In a well designed system with a microprocessor and one I2C device on the bus, with good board layout and routing, the I2C bus
capacitance can be kept under 20 pF. With a 1K pullup resistor, the I2C clock rates can be well in excess of a few megahertz.

Function Description
Functionality
MAG3110 is a small low-power, digital output, 3-axis linear magnetometer packaged in a 10-pin DFN. The device contains a
magnetic transducer for sensing and an ASIC for control and digital I2C communications.
4.1
I2C Serial Interface
Communication with the MAG3110 takes place over an I2C bus. The MAG3110 also has an interrupt signal indicating that new
magnetic data readings are available. Interrupt driven sampling allows operation without the overhead of software polling.
4.2
Factory Calibration
MAG3110 is factory calibrated for sensitivity and temperature coefficient. All factory calibration coefficients are applied
automatically by the MAG3110 ASIC before the magnetic field readings are written to registers 0x01 to 0x06 (see section 5).
There is no need for the user to apply the calibration correction in the software and the calibration coefficients are not therefore
accessible to the user.
The magnetic offset registers in addresses 0x09 to 0x0E are not a factory calibration offset but allow the user to define a hardiron offset which can be automatically subtracted from the magnetic field readings (see section 4.3.4).

Data ready interrupt pin
There are two signals associated with the I2C bus: the Serial Clock Line (SCL) and the Serial Data line (SDA). External pullup
resistors (connected to VDDIO) are needed for SDA and SCL. When the bus is free, both lines are high. The I2C interface is
compliant with Fast mode (400 kHz), and Normal mode (100 kHz) I2C standards.
4.3.1
General I2C Operation
There are two signals associated with the I2C bus: the Serial Clock Line (SCL) and the Serial Data Line (SDA). The latter is a
bidirectional line used for sending and receiving the data to/from the interface. External pullup resistors (connected to VDDIO)
are expected for both SDA and SCL. When the bus is free, both lines are high.
A transaction on the bus is started through a start condition (START) signal. START condition is defined as a HIGH to LOW
transition on the data line while the SCL line is held HIGH. After START has been transmitted by the Master, the bus is considered
busy. The next byte of data transmitted after START contains the slave address in the first 7 bits, and the eighth bit, the read/
write bit, indicates whether the Master is receiving data from the slave or transmitting data to the save. When an address is sent,
each device in the system compares the first seven bits after a START condition with its own address. If they match, the device
considers itself addressed by the Master. The 9th clock pulse, following the slave address byte (and each subsequent byte) is
the acknowledge (ACK). The transmitter must release the SDA line during the ACK period. The receiver must then pull the data
line low so that it remains stable low during the high period of the acknowledge clock period.

The number of bytes per transfer is unlimited. If a receiver can’t receive another complete byte of data until it has performed
some other function, it can hold the clock line, SCL low to force the transmitter into a wait state. Data transfer only continues when
the receiver is ready for another byte and releases the data line. This delay action is called clock stretching. Not all receiver
devices support clock stretching. Not all masters recognize clock stretching.
This part uses clock stretching. The host I2C controller must support clock stretching for proper operation.
A low to high transition on the SDA line while the SCL line the SCL line is high is defined as a stop condition (STOP). A write or
burst write is always terminated by the Master issuing a STOP. A Master should properly terminate a read by not acknowledging
a byte at the appropriate time in the protocol. A Master may issue a repeated START during a transfer.
The MAG3110 I2C 7-bit device address is 0x0E. In I2C practice, the device address is shifted left by one bit field and a read/write
bit is set in the lowest bit position. The I2C 8-bit write address is therefore 0x1C and the read address 0x1D.
See Figure 6 for details on how to perform read/write operations with MAG3110.

The SCL and SDA signals are driven by open-drain buffers and a pullup resistor is required to make the signals rise to the high
state. The value of the pullup resistors depends on the system I2C clock rate and the capacitance load on the I2C bus.
Higher resistance value pullup resistors consume less power, but will increase the rise time (due to the RC time constant between
the bus capacitance and the pullup resistor) and will limit the I2C clock frequency.
Lower resistance value pullup resistors consume more power, but enable higher I2C clock operating frequencies.
I2C bus capacitance is the sum of the parasitic trace capacitance and input capacitance of the other devices present on the bus.
devices connected to the bus. A lower value for the pullup resistor is required in higher capacitance bus systems to achieve a
given operating frequency.
For standard mode I2C at 100KHz clock frequency, pullup resistors typically are between 5k and 10 kΩ. For a heavily loaded bus,
the pullup resistor value may need to be reduced. For higher speed 400 kHz or 800 kHz clock I2C, bus capacitance will need to
be kept low, in addition to selecting a lower value pullup resistor. Pullup resistors for high speed buses typically are about 1 KΩ.
In a well designed system with a microprocessor and one I2C device on the bus, with good board layout and routing, the I2C bus
capacitance can be kept under 20 pF. With a 1K pullup resistor, the I2C clock rates can be well in excess of a few megahertz.
4.3.3
Fast Read Mode
When the Fast Read (FR) bit is set (CTRL_REG1, 0x10, bit 2), the MSB 8-bit data is read through the I2C bus. Auto-increment
is set to skip over the LSB data. When FR bit is cleared, the complete 16-bit data is read accessing all 6 bytes sequentially
(OUT_X_MSB, OUT_X_LSB, OUT_Y_MSB, OUT_Y_LSB, OUT_Z_MSB, OUT_Z_LSB).
4.3.4
User Offset Corrections
The 2’s complement user offset correction register values are used to compensate for correcting the X, Y, and Z-axis after device
board mount. These values may be used to compensate for hard-iron interference and zero-flux offset of the sensor.
Depending on the setting of the CTRL_REG2[RAW] bit, the magnetic field sample data is corrected with the user offset values
(CTRL_REG2[RAW] = 0), or can be read out uncorrected for user offset values (CTRL_REG2[RAW] = 1).
The factory calibration for gain, offset and temperature compensation is always automatically applied irrespective of the setting
of the CTRL_REG2[RAW] bit which only controls whether the user offset correction values stored in the OFF_X/Y/Z registers are
applied to the output data. In order to not saturate the sensor output, user written offset values should be within the range of
±10,000 counts.

INT1
The DR_STATUS register (see section 5.1.1) contains the ZYXDR bit which denotes the presence of new measurement data on
one or more axes. Software polling can be used to detect the transition of the ZYXDR bit from 0 to 1 but, since the ZYXDR bit is
also logically connected to the INT1 pin, a more efficient approach is to use INT1 to trigger a software interrupt when new
measurement data is available as follows:
1.

5.
4.3.6
Enable automatic resets by setting AUTO_MRST_EN bit in CTRL_REG2 (CTRL_REG2 = 0b1XXXXXX).
Put MAG3110 in ACTIVE mode (CTRL_REG1 = 0bXXXXXX01).
Idle until INT1 goes HIGH and activates an interrupt service routine in the user software.
Read magnetometer data as required from registers 0x01 to 0x06. INT1 is cleared when register 0x01 OUT_X_MSB is
read and this register must therefore always be read in the interrupt service routine.
Return to idle in step 3.
Triggered Measurements
Set the TM bit in CTRL_REG1 when you want the part to acquire only 1 sample on each axis. See table below for details.

The ASIC will continue the current measurement at the fastest applicable ODR
for the user programmed OSR. The ASIC will return back to the programmed
ODR after completing the triggered measurement.
ASIC is in low power standby mode.
The ASIC will exit standby mode, perform one measurement cycle based on the
programmed ODR and OSR setting, update the I2C data registers and re- enter
standby mode.
The anti-aliasing filter in the A/D converter has a finite delay before the output “settles”. The output data for the first ODR period
after getting out of Standby mode is expected to be slightly off. This effect will be more pronounced for the lower over-sampling
settings since with higher settings the error of the first acquisition will be averaged over the total number of samples. Therefore,
it is not recommended to use TRIGGER MODE (CTRL_REG1[AC]=0, CTRL_REG1[TM]=1) measurements for applications that
require high accuracy, especially with low over-sampling settings.

X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis 16-bit output sample data of the magnetic field strength expressed as signed 2's complement numbers.
When RAW bit is set (CTRL_REG2[RAW] = 1), the output range is between -20,000 to 20,000 bit counts (the combination of the
1000 μT full scale range and the zero-flux offset ranging up to 1000 μT).
When RAW bit is clear (CTRL_REG2[RAW] = 0), the output range is between -30,000 to 30,000 bit counts when the user offset
ranging between -10,000 to 10,000 bit counts are included
The DR_STATUS register, OUT_X_MSB, OUT_X_LSB, OUT_Y_MSB, OUT_Y_LSB, OUT_Z_MSB, and OUT_Z_LSB are stored
in the auto-incrementing address range of 0x00 to 0x06. Data acquisition is a sequential read of 6 bytes.
If the Fast Read (FR) bit is set in CTRL_REG1 (0x10), auto-increment will skip over LSB of the X, Y, Z sample registers. This will
shorten the data acquisition from 6 bytes to 3 bytes. If the LSB registers are directly addressed, the LSB information can still be
read regardless of FR bit setting.
The preferred method for reading data registers is the burst-read method where the user application acquires data sequentially
starting from register 0x01. If register 0x01 is not read first, the rest of the data registers (0x02 - 0x06) will not be updated with
the most recent acquisition. It is still possible to address individual data registers, however register 0x01 must be read prior to
ensure that the latest acquisition data is being read.

OFF_Z_MSB (0x0D), OFF_Z_LSB (0x0E)
These registers contain the X-axis, Y-axis, and Z-axis user defined offsets in 2's complement format which are used when
CTRL_REG2[RAW] = 0 (see section 5.5.2) to correct for the MAG3110 zero-flux offset and for hard-iron offsets on the PCB
caused by external components. The maximum range for the user offsets is in the range -10,000 to 10,000 bit counts comprising
the sum of the correction for the sensor zero-flux offset and the PCB hard-iron offset (range -1000 μT to 1000 μT or -10,000 to
10,000 bit counts).
The user offsets are automatically added by the MAG3110 logic when CTRL_REG2[RAW] = 0 before the magnetic field readings
are written to the data measurement output registers OUT_X/Y/Z. The maximum range of the X, Y and Z data measurement
registers when CTRL_REG2[RAW] = 0 is therefore -30,000 to 30,000 bit counts and is computed without clipping. The user
offsets are not subtracted when CTRL_REG2[RAW] = 1. The least significant bit of the user defined X, Y and Z offsets is forced
to be zero irrespective of the value written by the user.
If the MAG3110 zero-flux offset and PCB hard-iron offset corrections are performed by an external microprocessor (the most
likely scenario) then the user offset registers can be ignored and the CTRL_REG2[RAW] bit should be set to 1.
The user offset registers should not be confused with the factory calibration corrections which are not user accessible and are
always applied to the measured magnetic data irrespective o the setting of CTRL_REG2[RAW].

Table 32. CTRL_REG2 Description
Automatic Magnetic Sensor Reset. Default value: 0.
0: Automatic magnetic sensor resets disabled.
1: Automatic magnetic sensor resets enabled.
AUTO_MRST_EN
Similar to Mag_RST, however, the resets occur automatically before each data acquisition.
This bit is recommended to be always explicitly enabled by the host application. See examples in section 4.3.7. This
a WRITE ONLY bit and always reads back as 0.
RAW
Data output correction. Default value: 0.
0: Normal mode: data values are corrected by the user offset register values.
1: Raw mode: data values are not corrected by the user offset register values.
Note: The factory calibration is always applied to the measured data stored in registers 0x01 to 0x06 irrespective of the
setting of the RAW bit.
Mag_RST
Magnetic Sensor Reset (One-Shot). Default value: 0.
0: Reset cycle not active.
1: Reset cycle initiate or Reset cycle busy/active.
When asserted, initiates a magnetic sensor reset cycle that will restore correct operation after exposure to an excessive
magnetic field which exceeds the Full Scale Range (see Table 2) but is less than the Maximum Applied Magnetic Field
(see Table 3).
When the cycle is finished, value returns to 0.

PCB Guidelines
Surface mount Printed Circuit Board (PCB) layout is a critical portion of the total design. The footprint for the surface mount
packages must be the correct size to ensure proper solder connection interface between the PCB and the package. With the
correct footprint, the packages will self-align when subjected to a solder reflow process. These guidelines are for soldering and
mounting the Dual Flat No-Lead (DFN) package inertial sensors to PCBs. The purpose is to minimize the stress on the package
after board mounting. The MAG3110 digital output magnetometers use the DFN package platform. This section describes
suggested methods of soldering these devices to the PCB for consumer applications.
Please see Freescale application note AN4247,”Layout Recommendation for PCBs Using a magnetometer Sensor” for a
technical discussion on hard and soft-iron magnetic interference and general guidelines on layout and component selection
applicable to any PCB using a magnetometer sensor.
Freescale application note AN1902, “Quad Flat Pack No-Lead (QFN) Micro Dual Flat Pack No-Lead (μDFN)” discusses the DFN
package used by the MAG3110, PCB design guidelines for using DFN packages and temperature profiles for reflow soldering.
7.1
Overview of Soldering Considerations
Information provided here is based on experiments executed on DFN devices. They do not represent exact conditions present
at a customer site. Hence, information herein should be used as guidance only and process and design optimizations are
recommended to develop an application specific solution. It should be noted that with the proper PCB footprint and solder stencil
designs, the package will self-align during the solder reflow process.
7.2
Halogen Content
This package is designed to be Halogen Free, exceeding most industry and customer standards. Halogen Free means that no
homogeneous material within the assembly package shall contain chlorine (Cl) in excess of 700 ppm or 0.07% weight/weight or
bromine (Br) in excess of 900 ppm or 0.09% weight/weight.

7.
The PCB land should be designed as Non Solder Mask Defined (NSMD) as shown in Figure 7.
No additional via pattern underneath package.
PCB land pad is 0.6 mm by 0.225 mm as shown in Figure 7.
Solder mask opening = PCB land pad edge + 0.125 mm larger all around = 0.725 mm by 1.950 mm
Stencil opening = PCB land pad -0.05 mm smaller all around = 0.55 mm by 0.175 mm.
Stencil thickness is 100 or 125 mm.
Do not place any components or vias at a distance less than 2 mm from the package land area. This may cause
additional package stress if it is too close to the package land area.
8. Signal traces connected to pads are as symmetric as possible. Put dummy traces on NC pads in order to have same
length of exposed trace for all pads.
9. Use a standard pick and place process and equipment. Do not use a hand soldering process.
10. Assemble PCB when in an enclosure. Using caution, determine the position of screw down holes and any press fit. It is
important that the assembled PCB remain flat after assembly to keep electronic operation of the device optimal.
11. The PCB should be rated for the multiple lead-free reflow condition with max 260°C temperature.
12. No copper traces on top layer of PCB under the package. This will cause planarity issues with board mount. Freescale
DFN sensors are compliant with Restrictions on Hazardous Substances (RoHS), having halide free molding compound
(green) and lead-free terminations. These terminations are compatible with tin-lead (Sn-Pb) as well as tin-silver-copper
(Sn-Ag-Cu) solder paste soldering processes. Reflow profiles applicable to those processes can be used successfully for
soldering the devices.
