DESCRIPTION
The A16100 is a combined Hall-effect sensing integrated cir- cuit and EMC protection circuit that provides a user-friendly, PCB-less solution for camshaft applications. The A16100 incorporates a dual element Hall IC that switches in response to differential magnetic signals created by a ferro- magnetic target. The IC contains a sophisticated compensating circuit designed to eliminate the detrimental effects of magnet and system offsets. Digital processing of the analog signal provides zero-speed performance independent of air gap and also dynamic adaptation of device performance to the typical operating conditions found in automotive applications (reduced vibration sensitivity). High-resolution peak detecting DACs are used to set the adaptive switching thresholds of the device. Hysteresis in the thresholds reduces the negative effects of any anomalies in the magnetic signal associated with the targets used in many automotive applications. Customer-programmable thresholds allow fine adjustment of switchpoints for compensation of mechanical tolerances. Customer-programmable options through EEPROM allow for performance optimization to meet specific application requirements. The A16100 is available in a lead (Pb) free 3-pin SIP package with a 100% matte-tin-plated leadframe.

Three-Wire Differential Sensor IC for Cam Application, Programmable Threshold A16100 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com FUNCTIONAL DESCRIPTION Operation An operating device is capable of providing digital information that is representative of the mechanical features of a rotating gear. The waveform diagram in Figure 3 presents the automatic trans- lation of the mechanical profile, through the magnetic profile that it induces, to the digital output signal of the A16100. No addi- tional optimization is needed and minimal processing circuitry is required. This ease of use reduces design time and incremental assembly costs for most applications. Determining Output Signal Polarity In Figure 3, the top panel, labeled Mechanical Position, repre- sents the mechanical features of the target gear and orientation to the device. The bottom panel, labeled Device Output Signal, displays the square waveform corresponding to the digital output signal that results from a rotating gear. That direction of rotation (of the gear side adjacent to the package face) is: perpendicular to the leads, across the face of the device, from the pin 1 side to the pin 3 side. This results in the IC output switching from low state to high state as the leading edge of a tooth (a rising mechanical edge, as detected by the IC) passes the package face. In this con- figuration, the device output switches to its high polarity when a tooth is the target feature nearest to the package. If the direction of rotation is reversed so that the gear rotates from the pin 3 side to the pin 1 side, then the output polarity inverts. That is, the out- put signal goes high when a falling edge is detected, and a valley is nearest to the package.

Three-Wire Differential Sensor IC for Cam Application, Programmable Threshold A16100 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com Operating Modes CALIBRATION MODE After the Power-On Time has elapsed, the Calibration period begins. While calibration is performed, the sensor IC begins to internally detect the magnetic profile of the target. The output becomes active after t OUT(init), at the first detection of a target switching feature generating a switchpoint. The gain of the sensor IC is adjusted during the Calibration period, normalizing the internal signal amplitude for the air gap range of the device. This Automatic Gain Control (AGC) feature ensures that operational characteristics are isolated from the effects of installation air gap variation. Automatic Offset Adjustment (AOA) is circuitry that compen- sates for the effects of chip, magnet, and installation offsets. (The capability of AOA is indicated by the Allowable User-Induced Magnetic Offset, BOFFSET, in the Operating Characteristics table.) This circuitry works with the AGC during calibration to help center VPROC in the dynamic range to allow for DAC acquisition of signal peaks. Calibration mode also allows for the peak detecting DACs to properly acquire the magnetic signal, so that Running mode switchpoints can be accurately computed. RUNNING MODE After calibration is complete, the device enters in Running mode, where the output accuracy is maximized. Peak-tracking DAC algorithms allow tracking of signal drift result- ing from temperature changes, as well as tracking of target varia- tions, such as pole-to-pole variation and effective runout. Automatic Offset Adjustment remains active, allowing the IC to compensate for offsets induced by temperature variations over time. STOP MODE In certain engine management applications, it is possible for large temperature changes to occur when the target is stationary. These temperature changes can affect the differential magnetic signals. The Stop mode algorithm is engaged to compensate for such shifts in the processed signal that may be seen during stop and go conditions. Several observed edges of target rotation are required to leave Stop mode and return to Running mode. Device Technology The A16100 true zero-speed device contains a self-calibrating Hall-effect IC that possesses two Hall elements, a temperature compensated amplifier, and offset cancellation circuitry. The IC also contains a voltage regulator that provides supply noise rejec- tion over the operating voltage range. The Hall transducers and the electronics are integrated on the same silicon substrate using a proprietary BiCMOS process. Changes in temperature do not greatly affect this device due to the stable amplifier design and the offset rejection circuitry. The single-chip differential Hall effect IC contains two Hall ele- ments, spaced 2.2 mm apart, that measure the magnetic gradient created by a rotating ring magnet. The Hall elements measure the differential magnetic field and convert it to an analog voltage, V PROC, that is then processed to provide a digital output signal.
Three-Wire Differential Sensor IC for Cam Application, Programmable Threshold A16100 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com Programmable Switchpoints The Running mode switchpoints of the A16100 are established dynamically as a percentage of the amplitude of the internal signal, V PROC. Two DACs track the peaks of VPROC channel. The switching thresholds are established at fixed percentages of the values held in the DACs. The switching thresholds are customer programmable from 40 to 60% to allow accurate and consistent output switching and to compensate mechanical toler- ances. Because the thresholds are established dynamically as a percentage of the peak-to-peak signal, the effect of a signal shift is minimized. Power Supply Protection The device contains an on-chip regulator and can operate over a wide V CC range. The device also includes integrated in-package EMC protection components providing robustness to most auto- motive EMC requirements without additional external passive components. Running Mode Lockout The A16100 has a running mode lockout feature to prevent switching in response to small signals that are characteristic of vibration signals. The internal logic of the chip considers small- signal amplitudes below a certain level to be vibration. The output is held to the state prior to lockout until the amplitude of the signal returns to normal operational levels. Watchdog The A16100 employs a watchdog circuit to prevent extended loss of output switching in case of moderate signal shift caused by sudden impulses or vibrations in the system. When the output stops switching, the watchdog will be fired, allowing the chip to self-reset and return to the initial calibration mode to regain output switching. Undervoltage Lockout When the supply voltage falls below the undervoltage lockout voltage, V CC(min), the device enters Reset, where the output state returns to the Power-On State (POS) until sufficient VCC is supplied. This lockout feature prevents false signals caused by undervoltage conditions from propagating to the output of the IC.

Three-Wire Differential Sensor IC for Cam Application, Programmable Threshold A16100 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com POWER DERATING The device must be operated below the maximum junction tem- perature 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 appli- cation. This section presents a procedure for correlating factors affecting operating T J. (Thermal data is also available on the Allegro MicroSystems website.) The Package Thermal Resistance, RθJA, is a figure of merit sum- marizing 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, R θJC, is a 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) For example, given common conditions such as: TA= 25°C, VCC = 5 V, ICC = 8 mA, and RθJA = 270°C/W, then: PD = VCC × ICC = 5 V × 8 mA = 40 mW ΔT = PD × RθJA = 40 mW × 270°C/W = 10.8°C A worst-case estimate, PD(max), represents the maximum allow- able power level (VCC(max), ICC(max)), without exceeding TJ(max), at a selected RθJA and TA. Example: Reliability for VCC at TA = 160°C, estimated values based on pac- kage UC, using single layer PCB. Observe the worst-case ratings for the device, specifically: RθJA = 270°C/W, TJ(max) = 175°C, VCC(absmax) = 24 V , and ICC = 11 mA. Calculate the maximum allowable power level, PD(max). First, invert equation 3: ΔT(max) = TJ(max) – TA = 175°C – 160 °C = 15 °C This provides the allowable increase to TJ resulting from internal power dissipation. Then, invert equation 2: PD(max) = ΔT(max) ÷ RθJA = 15°C ÷ 270°C/W = 55.5 mW Finally, invert equation 1 with respect to voltage: VCC(est) = PD(max) ÷ ICC = 55.5 mW ÷ 11 mA = 5.05 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 reli- able 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.
