Technical content

The ALS31300 three-axis linear Hall-effect sensor IC provides a 12-bit digital value corresponding to the magnetic field measured in each of the X, Y , and Z axes. The ALS31300 is preconfigured for use in 3D sensing applications for head-on linear motion, slide-by position sensing, and rotation angle measurements. The ALS31300 is also offered in joystick mode, including a low gain option for the Z axis channel. This feature enables the use of a back-bias magnet to provide return-to-zero force instead of traditional spring-based solutions. Three different factory-programmed sensitivity ranges are available: ±500 G, ±1000 G, and ±2000 G. The I 2C address of the ALS31300 can be set either by external resistors (16 unique addresses) or programmed into EEPROM via I2C (127 unique addresses), allowing for multiple devices on the same bus. The ALS31300 also includes 78 bits of user EEPROM. Power management of the ALS31300 is highly configurable, allowing for system-level optimization of supply current and performance. Sleep mode consumes just 14 nA (typical), making the ALS31300 well suited for portable, battery-operated applications. The ALS31300 is supplied in a 3 mm × 3 mm × 0.8 mm, 10-contact DFN package (“EJ”). This small footprint package is lead (Pb) free, with 100 % matte-tin leadframe plating.

APPLICATION INFORMATION

Magnetic Sensor(s) Output The ALS31300 provides a 12-bit digital output value that is pro- portional to the magnetic field applied normally to any of the Hall elements. The most and least significant bits for X, Y , and Z chan- nels are separated across two primary registers: 0x28 and 0x29. The process begins with a full 8-byte read of MSB and LSB reg- isters to construct a 12-bit 2’s complement signed value. All data must be read in a single 8-byte read when combining registers, or the result will be the combination of two separate samples in time. The 12 bits of data are combined per Table 8. Table 8: Combined MSBs and LSBs for Magnetic Data BIT 11 10 9 8 7 6 5 4 3 2 1 0 DATA MSB Data LSB Data Assume that a full 8-byte read returns the following binary data for a single axis: MSB = 1100_0000 LSB = 0110 The combined data {MSB;LSB} = 1100_0000_0110, or the decimal equivalent = –1018. This value can then be converted to gauss by dividing by the sensitivity of the ALS31300. An ALS31300 with 500 gauss full-scale input range will have a typical sensitivity of 4 LSB/gauss. The 12-bit magnetic data value can be converted to gauss using the equation: gauss = –1018 LSB ÷ 4 LSB ⁄ G = –254 gauss Example source code for combining MSB and LSB data is avail- able in the 3D Linear and 2D Angle Sensing Application Note. Temperature Sensor Output The ALS31300 provides a 12-bit digital output that is propor- tional to the junction temperature of the IC. Similar to magnetic data, the most and least significant bits for temperature are sepa- rated across two primary registers: 0x28 and 0x29. Temperature is a 12-bit coded value. Temperature can be calculated by: (° ) = 302( −1708) 4096 After power-on, the temperature sensor is stable within 8 ms and it is updated every 8 ms after that. In low-power duty cycle mode, the temperature sensor is updated once every 10 low power cycles. Power Modes Power management on the ALS31300 is user-selectable and highly configurable, allowing for system-level optimization of current consumption and performance. The ALS31300 supports three different power modes: Active Mode, Sleep Mode, and Low-Power Duty Cycle Mode (LPDCM). The operating mode of the ALS31300 will be determined by the value in Sleep, Address 0x27, bits 1:0, described in Table 9. Table 9: Sleep Address Bits Value Operating Mode 0x27 1:0

0 Active Mode

1 Sleep Mode

2 Low-Power Duty Cycle Mode

In Sleep Mode, the ALS31300 enters a near powered-off state where it consumes the minimum amount of current (14 nA typical). In this mode, the device will still respond to I2C commands, but will not update magnetic or temperature data. Sleep mode is valu- able in applications where the supply voltage cannot be disabled but minimal power consumption is required. The time it takes to exit sleep mode is equivalent to Power-On Delay Time (t POD). LOW-POWER DUTY CYCLE MODE (LPDCM) In Low-Power Duty Cycle Mode (LPDCM), the ALS31300 toggles between Active and Inactive states, reducing overall current consumption. The average I CC for the ALS31300 during Low- Power Duty Cycle Mode will vary based on the settings used, and may range anywhere from 2 mA to 12 µA (typical). The diagram in Figure 4 shows the profile of I CC as the ALS31300 toggles between Active and Inactive states during Low-Power Duty Cycle Mode. 3.5 2.5 1.5 0.5

The ALS31300 offers eight discrete time frames, explained in Table 10. Typical ICC consumed in the inactive state is 12 µA.

For more information on LPDCM configuration, refer to the Low-Power Management Application Note for the ALS31300. Bandwidth Selection BW Select, address 0x02, bits 23:21, controls filtering modes on the ALS31300 for the X, Y , and Z magnetic channels. This setting will impact the resolution of sampled magnetic data, the device’s update rate, and the overall bandwidth. A lower value for BW Select offers increased measurement resolution with a longer measurement duration. A higher value for BW Select offers faster measurement time at the expense of reduced resolution. This setting is valuable for controlling active time during low-power duty cycle mode or increasing response time. Typical noise versus BW Select are listed in Table 11.

While the ALS31300 does update at high bandwidths internally, throughput may be limited by the I bus clocking frequency at the application level.

COMMON HALL MODE Magnetic data in registers 0x28 and 0x29 will be proportional to the sum of the fields as seen by the outer sensing elements of the X and Y axes. Concatenated X axis data {x_axis_MSB:x_axis_LSB} will be the result of X O(EAST) + XO(WEST) sensing elements, while concat- enated Y axis data {y_axis_MSB:y_axis_LSB} will be the result of Y O(NORTH) + YO(SOUTH) sensing elements. Z axis data will be the same as in single-ended mode. Interrupt The Interrupt feature on the ALS31300 integrates detection and reporting of large changes in applied magnetic field. An interrupt event is initiated when the applied magnetic field forces the ADC output to a value greater than or equal to the user-programmed threshold. Interrupt detection may be independently enabled or disabled for each of the three axes. Interrupt Reporting The ALS31300 will report the presence of an interrupt event by asserting the INT pin and the INT bit in register 0x28 will be set. Interrupt reporting may be latched or unlatched depending on the value of INT Latch Enable, address 0x02, bit 5. In a latched state, the INT pin will assert when an event is detected, and the INT bit will be set. Should the event subside, the INT pin and INT bit will remain set. In an unlatched state, the INT pin will assert when an event is detected, and the INT bit will be set. Should the event subside, the ALS31300 will reset the INT pin and the INT bit will be cleared. The ALS31300 may also report an interrupt event in EEPROM. This is feature enabled by setting INT EEPROM Enable, address 0x03, bit 21. If an interrupt event is detected, the device will write to INT EEPROM Status, address 0x03, bit 22. Interrupt Modes The ALS31300 includes two different interrupt modes, where the user may select a threshold value or a maximum change in field to compare. This setting is controlled via INT Mode, address 0x03, bit 23, explained in Table 15. Table 15: INT Modes INT Mode Value Mode Description

0 Threshold

An interrupt event occurs when the magnetic ADC Output data ≥ threshold.

1 Delta

Recent magnetic data is compared to stored value when entering LPDCM. An interrupt event occurs when the change in magnetic ADC Output data ≥ user-programmed delta value. THRESHOLD MODE In Threshold Interrupt Mode, the most recent magnetic sample data is compared to the user-selected threshold for each channel. If the magnetic ADC value is greater than or equal to this thresh- old, an interrupt event will occur. DELTA MODE Delta Interrupt Mode is used in combination with Low-Power Duty Cycle Mode, where the ALS31300 toggles between an Active and a Sleep state. In Delta Interrupt Mode, the ALS31300 will remember its last magnetic data sample when entering LPDCM. New magnetic data is compared to the original sample every time the ALS31300 toggles into the active state. If the delta (change) in magnetic data is larger than the user-selected delta, an interrupt event will occur. User-selectable values for threshold and delta share the registers Z INT Threshold, Y INT Threshold, and X INT Threshold, address 0x03, bits 17:0. In Threshold Mode, the value in these registers will be considered a threshold, while in Delta Mode, the value in these registers will be considered a delta. The ALS31300 may interpret these values as signed or unsigned based on the Signed INT Enable bit.

3-D Linear Hall-Effect Sensor with I2C Output and Advanced Low Power ManagementALS31300 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com SIGNED INTERRUPT THRESHOLD By default, the value for Signed INT Enable is set to 0, and the user-programmed value for threshold is unsigned. This will trigger an interrupt event when applying a positive or negative magnetic field, causing the absolute value of the magnetic data to meet or exceed the user-selected threshold. If Signed INT Enable is set to 1, the value for threshold becomes signed. This may be used to trigger interrupts on only positive or only negative magnetic fields that cause the value of the magnetic data to meet or exceed the user-programmed threshold. Interrupt threshold for each channel can be programmed indepen- dently using registers Z INT Threshold, Y INT Threshold, and X INT Threshold, address 0x03, bits 17:0. The following examples set an interrupt threshold for the X axis, but the technique also applies to Y and Z axes. When Signed INT Enable = 0, the interrupt threshold will be determined by the equation: threshold = (INT Threshold + 1) × 25 – 1 When Signed INT Enable = 1, the interrupt threshold will be determined by the equation: if X INT Threshold ≥ 0 threshold = (INT Threshold + 1) × 26 – 1 if X INT Threshold < 0 threshold = (INT Threshold + 1) × 26

3-D Linear Hall-Effect Sensor with I2C Output and Advanced Low Power ManagementALS31300 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com I2C Interface I2C is a synchronous, 2-wire serial communication protocol which provides a full-duplex interface between two or more devices. The bus specifics two logic signals: 1. Serial Clock Line (SCL) output by the Master . 2. Serial Data Line (SDA) output by either the Master or the Slave. The ALS31300 may only operate as a Slave device. Therefore, it cannot initiate any transactions on the I 2C bus. Data Transmission and Timing Considerations I2C communication is composed of several steps outlined in the following sequence. 1. Start Condition: Defined by a negative edge of the SDA line, initiated by the Master, while SCL is high. 2. Address Cycle: 7-bit Slave address, plus 1 bit to indicate write (0) or read (1), followed by an Acknowledge bit. 3. Data Cycles: Reading or writing 8 bits of data, followed by an Acknowledge bit. This cycle can be repeated for multiple bytes of data transfer. The first data byte on a write could be the register address. See the following sections for further information. 4. Stop Condition: Defined by a positive edge on the SDA line, while SCL is high. Except to indicate Start or Stop conditions, SDA must remain stable while the clock signal is high. SDA may only change states while SCL is low. It is acceptable for a Start or Stop condition to occur at any time during the data transfer. The ALS31300 will always respond to a Read or Write request by resetting the data transfer sequence. The state of the Read/Write bit is set to 0 to indicate a write cycle and set to 1 to indicate a read cycle. The Master monitors for an Acknowledge bit to confirm the Slave device (ALS31300) is responding to the address byte. When the ALS31300 decodes the 7-bit Slave address as valid, it responds by pulling SDA low during the ninth clock cycle. When a data write is requested by the Master, the ALS31300 pulls SDA low during the clock cycle following the data byte to indicate that the data has been successfully received. After sending either an address byte or a data byte, the Master must release the SDA line before the ninth clock cycle, allowing the handshake process to occur. I2C Write Cycle Overview The write cycle to access registers on the ALS31300 are outlined in the sequence below. 1. Master initiates Start Condition 2. Master sends 7-bit Slave address and the write bit (0) 3. Master waits for ACK from ALS31300 4. Master sends 8-bit register address 5. Master waits for ACK from ALS31300 6. Master sends 31:24 bits of data 7. Master waits for ACK from ALS31300 8. Master sends 23:16 bits of data 9. Master waits for ACK from ALS31300 10. Master sends 15:8 bits of data 11. Master waits for ACK from ALS31300 12. Master sends 7:0 bits of data 13. Master waits for ACK from ALS31300 14.

3-D Linear Hall-Effect Sensor with I2C Output and Advanced Low Power ManagementALS31300 Allegro MicroSystems, LLC Manchester, NH 03103-3353 U.S.A. www.allegromicro.com Customer Write Access An access code must be sent to the device prior to writing any of the volatile registers or EEPROM in the ALS31300. If customer access mode is not enabled, then no writes to the device are allowed. The only exception to this rule is the sleep register, which can be written regardless of the access mode. Furthermore, any register or EEPROM location can be read at any time regard- less of the access mode. To enter customer access mode, an access command must be sent via the I 2C interface. The command consists of a serial write operation with the address and data values shown in Table 16. Once the customer access mode is entered, it is not possible to change access modes without power-cycling the device. After power up, there is no time limit to when the access code may be entered. Table 16: Customer Access Code Access Mode Address Data Customer Access 0x35 0x2C413534 Read Cycle Overview The read cycle to access registers on ALS31300 is outlined in the sequence below. 1.

Master waits for ACK from ALS31300 9. Master receives 31:24 bits of data 10. Master sends ACK to ALS31300 11. Master receives 23:16 bits of data 12. Master sends ACK to ALS31300 13. Master receives 15:8 bits of data 14. Master sends ACK to ALS31300 15. Master receives 7:0 bits of data 16. Master sends NACK to ALS31300 17. Master initiates Stop Condition The I2C read sequence is further illustrated in the timing dia- grams in Figure 6. The timing diagram in Figure 6 shows the entire contents (bits 31:0) of a single register location being transmitted. Option- ally, the I2C Master may choose to replace the NACK with an ACK instead, which allows the read sequence to continue. This case will result in the transfer of contents (bits 31:24) from the following register, address + 1. The master can then continue acknowledging, issue the not-acknowledge (NACK), or stop after any byte to stop receiving data. Note that only the initial register address is required for reads, allowing for faster data retrieval. However, this restricts data retrieval to sequential registers when using a single read com- mand. When the Master provides a non-acknowledge bit and stop bit, the ALS31300 stops sending data. If nonsequential registers are to be read, separate read commands must be sent.

These modes simplify the process of repeatedly polling the ALS31300 for magnetic X, Y , Z, and Temperature data. Readback modes on the ALS31300 are described in Table 18. The desired readback mode may be entered by setting the appropriate bits for I 2C Loop Mode, address 0x27, bits 3:2. Table 18: ALS31300 Looping Read Modes Code (Binary) Mode Description ‘00’ Single No Looping. Similar to Default I2C. ‘01’ Fast Loop X, Y, Z, and Temperature fields are looped.

8 MSBs for X, Y, and Z, 6 MSBs for

Temperature are looped. ‘10’ Full Loop X, Y, Z, and Temperature fields are looped. Full 12-bit resolution fields are looped. ‘11’ Single Same as code 0. SINGLE MODE A single write or read command to any register—this is the default mode and is best suited for setting fields and reading static registers. If desired, this mode can be used to read X, Y , Z, and Temperature data in a typical serial fashion, but fast or full loop read modes are recommended for high-speed data retrieval. FAST LOOP MODE Fast Loop Mode offers continuous reading of X, Y , Z, and tempera- ture values, but is limited to the upper 8 bits of X, Y , and Z, and upper 6 bits of Temperature. This mode is intended to be a time efficient way of reading data from the IC at the expense of truncat- ing resolution. The flow chart in Figure 7 depicts Fast Loop Mode. Figure 7: Fast Loop Mode FULL LOOP MODE Full Loop Mode provides continuous reads of X, Y , Z, and Tem- perature data with full 12-bit resolution. This is the recommended mode for applications that require a higher data rate for X, Y , Z, and Temperature with full resolution. The flow chart in Figure 8 depicts Full Loop Mode.
