The sensor consists of a single-shot molded plastic package that includes a samarium cobalt magnet, a pole piece, and a Hall effect IC that has been optimized to the magnetic circuit. This small package, with optimized two-wire leadframe, can be easily assembled and used in conjunction with a wide variety of gear shapes and sizes. The integrated circuit incorporates a dual element Hall effect sensor and signal processing that switches in response to differential magnetic signals created by ferrous gear teeth. The circuitry contains a sophisticated digital circuit to reduce magnet and system offsets, to calibrate the gain for air gap independent switchpoints, and to achieve true zero-speed operation. Signal optimization occurs at power-up through the combination of offset and gain adjust and is maintained throughout the operating time with the use of a running mode calibration. The running mode calibration allows immunity to environmental effects such as microoscillations of the target or sudden air gap changes. The regulated current output is configured for two wire applications and the sensor is ideally suited for obtaining speed and duty cycle information in ABS (antilock braking systems). The 1.5 mm Hall element spacing is optimized for fine pitch gear-tooth-based configurations. The package is lead (Pb) free, with 100% matte tin leadframe plating.

The Hall IC possesses two Hall elements, which sense the magnetic profile of the ferrous target simultaneously, but at different points (spaced at a 1.5 mm pitch), generating a differential internal analog voltage (VPROC) that is processed for precise switching of the digital output signal. Figure 3 shows the output polarity for the orientation of target and sensor shown in figure 2. The target direction of rotation shown is: perpendicular to the leads, across the face of the device, from the pin 1 side to the pin 4 side. This results in the sensor output switching from high, ICC(High), to low ICC(Low), as the leading edge of a tooth (a rising mechanical edge, as detected by the sensor) passes the sensor face. In this configuration, the device output current switches to its low polarity when a tooth is the target feature nearest to the sensor. If the direction of rotation is reversed, then the output polarity inverts. The Hall IC is self-calibrating and also possesses a temperature compensated amplifier and offset compensation circuitry. Its voltage regulator provides supply noise rejection throughout the operating voltage range. Changes in temperature do not greatly affect this device due to the stable amplifier design and the offset compensation circuitry. The Hall transducers and signal processing electronics are integrated on the same silicon substrate, using a proprietary BiCMOS process. Target Profiling An operating device is capable of providing digital information that is representative of the mechanical features on a rotating target. The waveform diagram shown in figure 3 presents the automatic translation of the mechanical profile, through the magnetic profile that it induces, to the digital output signal of the sensor. Note that output voltage polarity is dependent on the position of the sense resistor, RSENSE (see figure 4).

During calibration, the device determines the peak-topeak amplitude of the signal generated by the target. The gain of the sensor is then automatically adjusted. Figure 5 illustrates the effect of this feature. Automatic Offset Adjust (AOA) The AOA is patented circuitry that automatically compensates for the effects of chip, magnet, and installation offsets. (For capability, see Dynamic Offset Cancellation, in the Operating Characteristics table.) This circuitry is continuously active, including both during calibration mode and running mode, compensating for any offset drift. Continuous operation also allows it to compensate for offsets induced by temperature variations over time. Digital Peak Detection A digital DAC tracks the internal analog voltage signal VPROC, and is used for holding the peak value of the internal analog signal. In the example shown in figure 6, the DAC would first track up with the signal and hold the upper peak’s value. When VPROC drops below this peak value by BOP, the device hysteresis, the output would switch and the DAC would begin tracking the signal downward toward the negative VPROC peak. Once the DAC acquires the negative peak, the output will again switch states when VPROC is greater than the peak by the value BRP. At this point, the DAC tracks up again and the cycle repeats. The digital tracking of the differential analog signal allows the sensor to achieve true zero-speed operation.

For devices that need to operate from an unregulated power supply, transient protection must be added externally. For applications using a regulated line, EMI/RFI protection may still be required.

Refer to figure 7 for an example of a basic This sensor is integrally molded into a plastic body that has been optimized for size, ease of assembly, and manufacturability. High operating temperature materials are used in all aspects of construction. application circuit. Undervoltage Lockout When the supply voltage falls below the undervoltage lockout voltage, VCC(UV), the device enters Reset, where the output state returns to the Power-On State (POS) until sufficient VCC is supplied. ICC levels may not meet datasheet limits when VCC < VCC(min). Diagnostics The regulated current output is configured for two-wire applications, requiring one less wire for operation than do switches with the more traditional open-collector output. Additionally, the system designer inherently gains diagnostics because there is always output current flowing, which should be in either of two narrow ranges, shown in figure 8 as ICC(High) and ICC(Low). Any current level not within these ranges indicates a fault condition. If ICC > ICC(High)max, then a short condition exists, and if ICC < ICC(low)min, then an open condition exists. Any value of ICC between the allowed ranges for ICC(High) and ICC(Low) indicates a general fault condition.

Following each adjustment to the AGC DAC, the Offset DAC is also adjusted to ensure the internal analog signal is properly centered. SENSOR OPERATION Each operating mode is described in detail below. Power-On When power (VCC > VCCMIN) is applied to the device, a short period of time is required to power the various portions of the IC. During this period, the ATS642 will power-on in the high current state, ICC(High). After power on, there are conditions that could induce a change in the output state. Such an event could be caused by thermal transients, but would require a static applied magnetic field, proper signal polarity, and particular direction and magnitude of internal signal drift. During this mode, the tracking DAC is active and output switching occurs, but the duty cycle is not guaranteed to be within specification. Running Mode After the Initial Calibration period, CI, establishes a signal gain, the device moves to Running mode. During Running mode, the sensor tracks the input signal and gives an output edge for every peak of the signal. AOA remains active to compensate for any offset drift over time. Initial Offset Adjust The sensor intially cancels the effects of chip, magnet, and installation offsets. Once offsets have been cancelled, the digital tracking DAC is ready to track the signal and provide output switching. The period of time required for both Power-On and Initial Offset Adjust is defined as the Power-On Time. The ATS642 incorporates a novel algorithm for adjusting the signal gain during Running mode. This algorithm is designed to optimize the VPROC signal amplitude in instances where the magnetic signal “seen” during the calibration period is not representative of the amplitude of the magnetic signal for the installed sensor air gap (see figure 9). Calibration Mode The calibration mode allows the sensor to automatically select the proper signal gain and continue to adjust for offsets.

Self-calibration occurs. Position 2. Small amplitude oscillation of the target sends an erroneously small differential signal to the sensor. The amplitude of VPROC is greater than the switching hysteresis (BOP and BRP), and the device output switches. Position 3. The calibration period completes on the third rising output edge, and the device enters Running mode. Position 4. True target rotation occurs and the correct magnetic signal is generated for the installation air gap. The established signal gain is too large for the target’s rotational magnetic signal at the given air gap. Position 5. Running Mode Calibration corrects the signal gain to an optimal level for the installation air gap. 13 ATS642LSH-DS Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. 115 Northeast Cutoff, Box 15036 Worcester, Massachusetts 01615-0036 (508) 853-5000 www.allegromicro.com ATS642LSH True Zero Speed Miniature Differential Peak-Detecting Gear Tooth Sensor Power Derating The device must be operated below the maximum junction temperature of the device, TJ(max). 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) ΔT = PD × RθJA (2) TJ = TA + ΔT (3) Example: Reliability for VCC at TA = 150°C, package SH (I1 trim), using minimum-K PCB Observe the worst-case ratings for the device, specifically: RθJA = 126°C/W, TJ(max) = 165°C, VCC(max) = 24 V, and ICC(max) = 16 mA. Calculate the maximum allowable power level, PD(max). First, invert equation 3: ΔTmax = 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) = ΔTmax ÷ RθJA = 15°C ÷ 126 °C/W = 119 mW Finally, invert equation 1 with respect to voltage: VCC(est) = PD(max) ÷ ICC(max) = 119 mW ÷ 16 mA = 7 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 = 4 mA, and RθJA = 140 °C/W, then: PD = VCC × ICC = 12 V × 4 mA = 48 mW ΔT = PD × RθJA = 48 mW × 140 °C/W = 7°C TJ = TA + ΔT = 25°C + 7°C = 32°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. 14 ATS642LSH-DS Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. 115 Northeast Cutoff, Box 15036 Worcester, Massachusetts 01615-0036 (508) 853-5000 www.allegromicro.com ATS642LSH True Zero Speed Miniature Differential Peak-Detecting Gear Tooth Sensor Package SH Module 5.5 .217 0.43 .017 E 0.75 .0295 C E 0.75 .0295 8.0 5.8 B .315 .228 E 4.0 5.0 .244 .157 A 1.7 0.38 .015 .067 1 2 3 4 1.08 .043 1 .039 20.95 .825 13.05 .514 A 0.6 .024 D 0.6 .024 1.27 .050 Dimensions in millimeters.
