ATS645LSH Two-Wire True Zero Speed Miniature Differential Peak-Detecting Gear Tooth Sensor Features and Benefits • • • • • • • Fully optimized differential digital gear tooth sensor Single chip IC for high reliability Internal current regulator for 2-wire operation Small mechanical size (8 mm diameter x 5.5 mm depth) Air gap independent switchpoints Digital output representing gear profile Precise duty cycle signal over operating temperature range • Large operating air gaps • Automatic Gain Control (AGC) Description The components in speed sensing applications continue to diminish in size to meet spatial constraints and weight reduction requirements. As the geometries of gears become smaller, this can compromise the capabilities of a gear speed sensor. The ATS645 Hall-element-to-Hall-element spacing of only 1.5 mm makes this device uniquely capable of accommodating very fine-pitch gears. In addition, the ATS645 signal peak-detecting algorithm supports consistent switching at relatively large air gaps, where the peak-to-peak amplitude is small. These features make the ATS645 the ideal solution to detect the speed of finepitch targets such as those found in ABS (antilock braking) systems. The ATS645 combines a Hall-effect sensing integrated circuit and magnet to provide a manufacturer-friendly solution for true zero-speed digital gear-tooth sensing in two-wire applications. The device consists of a single-shot molded plastic package that includes a samarium cobalt magnet, a pole piece, and a Hall-effect integrated circuit that has been optimized to the magnetic circuit. This small package can be easily assembled and used in conjunction with a wide variety of gear shapes and sizes.

The circuitry contains a sophisticated digital circuit to eliminate magnet and system offsets and to achieve true zero speed operation (U.S. Patent 5,917,320). A-D and D-A converters are used to adjust the device gain at power-on and to allow switching independent of the breadth of the air gap. 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.The package is available in a lead (Pb) free version, with 100% matte tin leadframe plating.

The Hall IC supports 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. The Hall IC is self-calibrating and also possesses a temperature compensated amplifier and offset cancellation 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 rejection circuitry. The Hall transducers and signal processing electronics are integrated on the same silicon substrate, using a proprietary BiCMOS process. Target Profiling 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. Note that output voltage polarity is dependent on the position of the sense resistor, RSENSE (see figure 4). Target Mechanical Profile 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.

Digital Peak Detection This feature allows the device to operate with an optimal internal electrical signal, regardless of the air gap (within the AG specification). 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 cancels 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 compen- 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. Contact Allegro Microsystems for information on the circuitry needed for compliance with various EMC specifications. Refer to figure 7 for an example of a basic application circuit.

Power-On internal analog signal is properly centered. During this mode, the tracking DAC is active and output switching occurs, but the duty cycle is not guaranteed to be within specification. Diagnostics 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 ATS645 is guaranteed to power-on in the high current state, ICC(High). 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. Calibration Mode 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. Any current level not within these ranges indicates a fault condition. Running Mode After the initial calibration period, CI, during which a signal gain is established, 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. The calibration mode allows the sensor to automatically select the proper signal gain and continue to adjust for offsets. The AGC is active, and selects the optimal signal gain based on the amplitude of the VPROC signal. Following each adjustment to the AGC DAC, the Offset DAC is also adjusted to ensure the Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. 115 Northeast Cutoff, Box 15036 Worcester, Massachusetts 01615-0036 (508) 853-5000 www.allegromicro.com 11 ATS645LSH True Zero Speed Miniature Differential PeakDetecting 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 ΔT = PD × RθJA (2) TJ = TA + ΔT (3) (1) 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.
