A1242 Two-Wire Chopper-Stabilized Hall Effect Latch The A1242 Hall effect latch is a two-wire latch especially suited for operation over extended temperature ranges, from –40 to +150°C. Superior high-temperature performance is made possible through the Allegro® patented dynamic offset cancellation technique, which reduces the residual offset voltage normally caused by device overmolding, temperature dependencies, and thermal stress. The current-switching output technique allows for the reduction in cost in the wiring harness because only two connections to the sensor are required. The current-switching output structure also inherently provides more immunity against EMC/ESD transients. These sensors have low magnetic thresholds, thereby enabling more flexibility in the magnetic circuit design. The Hall effect latch will be in the high output current state in the presence of a magnetic South Pole field of sufficient magnitude and will remain in this state until a sufficient North Pole field is present. The A1242 includes the following on a single silicon chip: a voltage regulator, Hall-voltage generator, small-signal amplifier, chopper stabilization, Schmitt trigger, and a current source output. Advanced BiCMOS wafer fabrication processing takes advantage of low-voltage requirements, component matching, very low input-offset errors and small component geometries. Suffix ‘L-’ devices are rated for operation over a temperature range of –40°C to +150°C; suffix ‘E-’ devices are rated for operation over a temperature range of –40°C to +85°C. Two A1242 package styles provide magnetically optimized solutions for most applications. Package LH is a SOT23W, a miniature low-profile surface-mount package, while package UA is a three-lead ultra-mini SIP for through-hole mounting. Each package is available lead (Pb) free, with 100% matte tin plated leadframes. 1 2 3 Package LH, 3-pin Surface Mount 3 1 2 NC 1 2 3 Package UA, 3-pin SIP Features and Benefits 12 3 ABSOLUTE MAXIMUM RATINGS Supply Voltage, VCC .......................................... 28 V Reverse-Supply Voltage, VRCC ........................ –18 V Magnetic Flux Density, B .........................Unlimited Operating Temperature Ambient, TA, Range E.................. –40ºC to 85ºC Ambient, TA, Range L................ –40ºC to 150ºC Maximum Junction, TJ(max)........................165ºC Storage Temperature, TS .................. –65ºC to 170ºC Chopper stabilization – Superior temperature stability – Extremely low switchpoint drift – Insensitive to physical stress Reverse battery protection Solid-state reliability Small size Robust EMC capability High ESD ratings (HBM) A1242-DS Allegro MicroSystems, Inc. 115 Northeast Cutoff, Box 15036 Worcester, Massachusetts 01615-0036 (508) 853-5000 www.allegromicro.com A1242 Two-Wire Chopper-Stabilized Hall Effect Latch Product Selection Guide Part Number Packaging* Mounting 3-pin SOT23W surface mount 3-pin SIP through hole 3-pin SOT23W surface mount 3-pin SIP through hole A1242ELHLT-I1-T 7-in. reel, 3000 pieces/reel A1242ELHLT-I2-T A1242EUA-I1-T Bulk, 500 pieces/bag A1242EUA-I2-T A1242LLHLT-I1-T 7-in. reel, 3000 pieces/reel A1242LLHLT-I2-T A1242LUA-I1-T Bulk, 500 pieces/bag A1242LUA-I2-T *Contact Allegro for additional packing options.

Note that the device latches, that is, a south pole of sufficient strength towards the branded surface of the device switches the device output to ICC(H). The device retains its output state if the south pole is removed. When the magnetic field is reduced to below the release point threshold, BRP, the device output goes to the low current state. The difference between the magnetic operate and release points is called the hysteresis of the device, BHYS. This built-in hysteresis allows clean switching of the output even in the presence of external mechanical vibration and electrical noise. . TYPICAL APPLICATION CIRCUIT The A1242 should be protected by an external bypass capacitor, CBYP, connected between the supply, VCC, and the ground, GND, of the device. CBYP reduces both external noise and the noise generated by the chopper-stabilization function. As shown in figure 2, a 0.01 μF capacitor is typical. Installation of CBYP must ensure that the traces that connect it to the A1242 pins are no greater than 5 mm in length. All high-frequency interferences conducted along the supply lines are passed directly to the load through CBYP , and it serves only to protect the A1242 internal circuitry. As a result, the load ECU (electronic control unit) must have sufficient protection, other than CBYP, installed in parallel with the A1242. A series resistor on the supply side, RS (not shown), in combination with CBYP, creates a filter for EMI pulses. When determining the minimum VCC requirement of the A1242 device, the voltage drops across RS and the ECU sense resistor, RSENSE, must be taken into consideration. The typical value for RSENSE is approximately 100 Ω.

This voltage is disproportionally small relative to the offset that can be produced at the output of the Hall sensor. This makes it difficult to process the signal while maintaining an accurate, reliable output over the specified operating temperature and voltage ranges. Chopper stabilization is a unique approach used to minimize Hall offset on the chip. The patented Allegro technique, namely Dynamic Quadrature Offset Cancellation, removes key sources of the output drift induced by thermal and mechanical stresses. This offset reduction technique is based on a signal modulationdemodulation process. The undesired offset signal is separated from the magnetic field-induced signal in the frequency domain, through modulation. The subsequent demodulation acts as a modulation process for the offset, causing the magnetic field induced signal to recover its original spectrum at baseband, while the dc offset becomes a high-frequency signal. The magnetic sourced signal then can pass through a low-pass filter, while the modulated dc offset is suppressed. This configuration is illustrated in Figure 3. The chopper stabilization technique uses a 200 kHz high frequency clock. For demodulation process, a sample and hold technique is used, where the sampling is performed at twice the chopper frequency (400 kHz). This high-frequency operation allows a greater sampling rate, which results in higher accuracy and faster signal-processing capability. This approach desensitizes the chip to the effects of thermal and mechanical stresses, and produces devices that have extremely stable quiescent Hall output voltages and precise recoverability after temperature cycling. This technique is made possible through the use of a BiCMOS process, which allows the use of low-offset, low-noise amplifiers in combination with high-density logic integration and sample-and-hold circuits. The repeatability of magnetic field-induced switching is affected slightly by a chopper technique. However, the Allegro high frequency chopping approach minimizes the affect of jitter and makes it imperceptible in most applications. Applications that are more likely to be sensitive to such degradation are those requiring precise sensing of alternating magnetic fields; for example, speed sensing of ring-magnet targets. For such applications, Allegro recommends its digital sensor families with lower sensitivity to jitter. For more information on those devices, contact your Allegro sales representative.

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 TJ = TA + ΔT (1) (2) (3) Example: Reliability for VCC at TA = 150°C, package LH, using minimum-K PCB. Observe the worst-case ratings for the device, specifically: RθJA = 228°C/W, TJ(max) = 165°C, VCC(max) = 24 V, and ICC(max) = 17 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 ÷ 228 °C/W = 66 mW Finally, invert equation 1 with respect to voltage: VCC(est) = PD(max) ÷ ICC(max) = 66 mW ÷ 17 mA = 3.9 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 = 6 mA, and RθJA = 165 °C/W, then: PD = VCC × ICC = 12 V × 6 mA = 72 mW ΔT = PD × RθJA = 72 mW × 165 °C/W = 12°C TJ = TA + ΔT = 25°C + 12°C = 37°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.
