DESCRIPTION
New applications for linear output Hall-effect sensors, such
as displacement and angular position, require higher accuracy
and smaller package sizes. The Allegro A1308 and A1309
linear Hall-effect sensor ICs have been designed specifically
to meet both requirements. These temperature-stable devices
are available in both surface-mount and through-hole packages.
The accuracy of each device is enhanced via end-of-line
optimization. Each device features nonvolatile memory to
optimize device sensitivity and the quiescent voltage output
(QVO: output in the absence of a magnetic field) for a given
application or circuit. This A1308 and A1309 optimized
performance is sustained across the full operating temperature
range by programming the temperature coefficient for both
sensitivity and QVO at Allegro end-of-line test.
These ratiometric Hall-effect sensor ICs provide a voltage
output that is proportional to the applied magnetic field. The
quiescent voltage output is adjusted around 50% of the supply
voltage.
The features of these linear devices make them ideal for use in
automotive and industrial applications requiring high accuracy,
and they operate across an extended temperature range,
–40°C to 150°C (SOT-23W and SIP -L temperature range) or
–40°C to 125°C (SIP -K temperature range).
Each BiCMOS monolithic circuit integrates a Hall element,
temperature-compensating circuitry to reduce the intrinsic

CHARACTERISTIC DEFINITIONS
Power-On Time. When the supply is ramped to its operating
voltage, the device output requires a finite time to react to an
input magnetic field. Power-On Time, tPO , is defined as the time
it takes for the output voltage to begin responding to an applied
magnetic field after the power supply has reached its minimum
specified operating voltage, VCC(min), as shown in Figure 1.
Delay to Clamp. A large magnetic input step may cause the
clamp to overshoot its steady-state value. The Delay to Clamp,
tCLP , is defined as the time it takes for the output voltage to settle
within 1% of its steady-state value, after initially passing through
its steady-state voltage, as shown in Figure 2.
Quiescent Voltage Output Drift Across Temperature
Range. Due to internal component tolerances and thermal
considerations, the Quiescent Voltage Output, VOUT(Q), may
drift due to temperature changes within the Operating Ambient
Temperature, TA. For purposes of specification, the Quiescent
Voltage Output Drift Across Temperature Range, ∆VOUT(Q) (mV),
is defined as:

Sensitivity Temperature Coefficient. The device sensitivity changes as temperature changes, with respect to its Sensitivity Temperature Coefficient, TCSENS. TCSENS is programmed
at 150°C (L temperature device) or at 125°C (K temperature
device), and calculated relative to the baseline sensitivity programming temperature of 25°C. TCSENS is defined as:

where T1 is the baseline Sens programming temperature of 25°C,

temperature device) or 125°C (K temperature device).
The ideal value of Sens across the full ambient temperature
range, SensIDEAL(TA), is defined as:
SensIDEAL(TA) = SensT1 × [100 (%) + TCSENS (TA –T1)] (4)
Sensitivity Drift Across Temperature Range. Secondorder sensitivity temperature coefficient effects cause the
magnetic sensitivity, Sens, to drift from its ideal value across the

stress and relaxation can cause the device sensitivity at TA = 25°C
to change during and after temperature cycling. This change in
sensitivity follows a hysteresis curve. For purposes of specification, the Sensitivity Drift Due to Package Hysteresis, ∆SensPKG,
is defined as:
Sens(25°C)(2) – Sens(25°C)(1)
∆SensPKG =
Sens(25°C)(1)

where Sens(25°C)(1) is the programmed value of sensitivity
at TA = 25°C, and Sens(25°C)(2) is the value of sensitivity at
TA = 25°C after temperature cycling TA up to 150°C (L temperature device) or 125°C (K temperature device), down to –40°C,
and back up to 25°C.
Linearity Sensitivity Error. The A1308 and A1309 are
designed to provide linear output in response to a ramping
applied magnetic field. Consider two magnetic fields, B1 and B2.
Ideally, the sensitivity of a device is the same for both fields, for
a given supply voltage and temperature. Linearity error is present
when there is a difference between the sensitivities measured at
B1 and B2.
Linearity Sensitivity Error, LINERR , is calculated separately for
positive (LinERR+) and negative (LinERR– ) applied magnetic
fields. LINERR (%) is measured and defined as:
Sens(B+)(2)
× 100
LinERR+ = 1–
Sens(B+)(1)

The output voltage clamps, VCLPHIGH and VCLPLOW , limit the
operating magnetic range of the applied field in which the device
provides a linear output. The maximum positive and negative
applied magnetic fields in the operating range can be calculated:
BMAX(+) =
BMAX(–) =
Sens
Ratiometry Error. The A1308 and A1309 provide ratiometric
output. This means that the Quiescent Voltage Output, VOUT(Q) ,
magnetic sensitivity, Sens, and clamp voltages, VCLPHIGH and
VCLPLOW , are proportional to the supply voltage, VCC. In other
words, when the supply voltage increases or decreases by a
certain percentage, each characteristic also increases or decreases
by the same percentage. Error is the difference between the
measured change in the supply voltage relative to 5 V and the
measured change in each characteristic.
The ratiometric error in quiescent voltage output, RatVOUT(Q)
(%), for a given supply voltage, VCC, is defined as:
(8)
|B(+)(2)| > |B(+)(1)| and |B(–)(2)| > |B(–)(1)|

The effective linearity error is:

Undervoltage Lockout. The A1308 and A1309 provide an
undervoltage lockout feature which ensures that the device outputs a VOUT signal only when VCC is above certain thresholds .
The undervoltage lockout feature provides a hysteresis of operation to eliminate indeterminate output states.

VCC Off Level. For applications in which the VCC pin of the
A1308 or A1309 is being power-cycled (for example using a
multiplexer to toggle the part on and off), the specification of
VCC Off Level, VCCOFF , determines how high a VCC off voltage
can be tolerated while still ensuring proper operation and startup
of the device (see Figure 4).

VOUT output is enabled, providing a ratiometric output voltage that is proportional to the input magnetic signal and VCC . If
VCC should drop back down below VUVLOLO after the device is
powered up, the output would be pulled low (see Figure 3) until
VUVLOHI is reached again and VOUT would be reenabled.

Chopper Stabilization Technique
When using Hall-effect technology, a limiting factor for
switchpoint accuracy is the small signal voltage developed across
the Hall element. This voltage is disproportionally small relative
to the offset that can be produced at the output of the Hall sensor
IC. 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. Allegro
employs a technique to remove key sources of the output drift
induced by thermal and mechanical stresses. This offset reduction
technique is based on a signal modulation-demodulation process.
The undesired offset signal is separated from the magnetic fieldinduced 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. In addition to the removal of the thermal and mechanical
stress-related offset, this novel technique also reduces the amount
of thermal noise in the Hall sensor IC while completely removing
the modulated residue resulting from the chopper operation. The
chopper stabilization technique uses a high-frequency sampling
clock. For demodulation process, a sample-and-hold technique
is used. 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 highdensity logic integration and sample-and-hold circuits.
