The MLX90254 is a Differential Dynamic Hall
Effect Sensor which has been developed for
automotive crankshaft and ABS (anti-lock brake
system) applications. The IC, combined with a
magnet placed at his back, offers speed and
position sensing of ferromagnetic tooth-wheels
in dynamic operation (non zero speed). Its low
hysteresis enables it to operate over a wide
range of air gaps from -40°C to 150°C.
The use of two Hall cells makes the operation
sensitive to a rotation of the IC around its normal
axis.
The output structure is an Open-Drain NMOS
transistor with a capability of 25 mA under 24V
and protected against short-circuits. The IC is
packaged in 4-SIP VA.

1 mT = 10 Gauss: Flux density units.
Pre-induction: the pre-induction is the magnetic field induced by the back bias magnet.
Operating point: the value of the differential flux density when the transistor output turns ON.
Release point: the value of the differential flux density when the transistor output turns OFF
Margin: the flux density of the magnetic field has to be higher or lower than the margin value to enable the
next toggling of the output.

(1) Supply current can rise-up to 20 mA max. in the 3-4 volts Vdd range.
(2) Start-up time : when the wheel has started spinning, the output signal appears after a few teeth but a
delay up to 150 ms could be seen before the highest accuracy/repeatability.
(3) The frequency is linked with the first order high pass filter with a cut-off frequency smaller than 20 Hz.

7. General Description
Let us model the magnetic flux densities by sinusoids. If the wheel confirms a certain geometrical
property, the two Hall cells see two magnetic flux densities in phase opposition. They are illustrated by the
dashed sinusoid on figure 1.
The difference between the two Hall signals is computed and amplified. The remaining DC offset is
removed by the high-pass filter. The noise that is out of the signal bandwidth is attenuated by the lowpass filter in order to minimize the output jitter.
The AC differential signal is compared to the Bop and Brp threshold and the result of that comparison
commands the open drain output transistor.
