Ratiometric, linear Hall-effect sensors provide a voltage output that is proportional to the applied magnetic field and have a quiescent output voltage that is approximately 50% of the supply voltage. These magnetic sensors are ideal for use in linear and rotary position sensing systems in the harsh environments of automotive and industrial applications over extended temperatures to -40°C and +150°C. The A3515– features an output sensitivity of 5 mV/G, while the A3516– has an output sensitivity of 2.5 mV/G. See the Magnetic Characteristics table for complete, individual device parametrics. Each BiCMOS monolithic circuit integrates a Hall element, improved temperature-compensating circuitry to reduce the intrinsic sensitivity drift of the Hall element, a small-signal high-gain amplifier, and a rail-to-rail lowimpedance output stage. A proprietary dynamic offset cancelation technique, with an internal high-frequency clock, reduces the residual offset voltage, which is normally caused by device overmolding, temperature dependancies, and thermal stress. This technique produces devices that have an extremely stable quiescent output voltage, are immune to mechanical stress, and have precise recoverability after temperature cycling. Many problems normally associated with low-level analog signals are minimized by having the Hall element and amplifier in a single chip. Output precision is obtained by internal gain and offset trim adjustments during the manufacturing process. These devices are supplied in a 3-pin ultra-mini-SIP ‘UA’ package.

In the quiescent state (no magnetic field), the output is ideally equal to one-half of the supply voltage over the operating voltage and temperature range (VOQ ∪ VCC/2). Due to internal component tolerances and thermal considerations, there is a tolerance on the quiescent voltage output and on the quiescent voltage output as a function of supply voltage and ambient temperature. For purposes of specification, the quiescent voltage output as a function of temperature is defined as ∆VOQ(∆T) = VOQ(TA) – VOQ(25°C) Sens(25°C) Ratiometry. The A3515xUA and A3516xUA feature a ratiometric output. The quiescent voltage output and sensitivity are proportional to the supply voltage (ratiometric). The per cent ratiometric change in the quiescent voltage output is defined as ∆VOQ(∆V) = VOQ(VCC) / VOQ(5V) VCC / 5 V x 100% (4) (1) and the per cent ratiometric change in sensitivity is defined as ∆Sens(∆V) = Sens(VCC) / Sens(5V) VCC / 5 V This calculation yields the device’s equivalent accuracy, over the operating temperature range, in gauss. Sensitivity. The presence of a south-pole magnetic field perpendicular to the package face (the branded surface) will increase the output voltage from its quiescent value toward the supply voltage rail by an amount proportional to the magnetic field applied. Conversely, the application of a north pole will decrease the output voltage from its quiescent value. This proportionality is specified as the sensitivity of the device and is defined as VO(500G) – VO(-500G) 1000 G x 100% (5) Linearity and Symmetry. The on-chip output stage is designed to provide a linear output to within 500 mV of either rail with a supply voltage of 5 V. This is equivalent to approximately ±800 gauss of ambient field. Although application of stronger magnetic fields will not damage these devices, it will force the output into a non-linear region. Linearity in per cent is measured and defined as VO(500G) – VOQ 2 (VO(250G) – VOQ) VO(-500G) – VOQ 2 (VO(-250G) – VOQ) Lin+ = (2) x 100% (6) Sens = The stability of sensitivity as a function of temperature is defined as ∆Sens(∆T) = Sens(TA) – Sens(25°C) Sens(25°C) Lin– = x 100% (7) and output symmetry as x 100% (3) Sym = VO(500G) – VOQ VOQ – VO(-500G) x 100% (8) www.allegromicro.com 5 3515 AND 3516 RATIOMETRIC, LINEAR HALL-EFFECT SENSORS TYPICAL CHARACTERISTICS 1.4 9.0 Vcc = 5.5 V 1.2 Vcc = 5 V SUPPLY CURRENT IN mA 8.0 OUTPUT RESISTANCE IN Ω IO = 1.0 -1 m A IO = IO = 1m A 5 mA 0 mA 7.0 0.8 IO = 1 0.6 6.0 -50 -25 0 25 50 75 100 125 150 0.4 -50 -25 0 25 50 75 100 125 150 AMBIENT TEMPERATURE IN °C Dwg.

For safe, reliable operation, the output should not be pulled above the supply voltage or pulled below the device ground. For optimum performance, a 0.1 µF capacitor between the supply and ground, and a 100 pF capacitor between the output and ground, should be added. The ratiometric feature is especially valuable when these devices are used with an analog-to-digital converter. A/D converters typically derive their LSB step size by ratioing off a reference voltage line. If the reference voltage varies, the LSB will vary proportionally. This is a major error source in many sensing systems. The A3515xUA and A3516xUA can eliminate this source of error by their ratiometric operation. Because their gain and offsets are proportional to the supply voltage, if they are powered from the A/D reference voltage, the sensor output voltage will track changes in the LSB value. These devices can withstand infrequent temperature excursions, beyond the Absolute Maximum Ratings, to TA = 170°C provided the junction temperature, TJ, does not exceed 200°C.
