This allows the usage of the AS5304/AS5306 in applications where the Sensor IC cannot be mounted at the end of a rotating device (e.g. at hollow shafts). Instead, the AS5304/AS5306 are mounted off-axis underneath a multipole magnetized ring or strip and provides a quadrature incremental output with 40 pulses per pole period at speeds of up to 20 meters/sec (AS5304) or 12 meters/sec (AS5306). A single index pulse is generated once for every pole pair at the Index output. Using, for example, a 32pole-pair magnetic ring, the AS5304/AS5306 can provide a resolution of 1280 pulses/rev, which is equivalent to 5120 positions/rev or 12.3bit. The maximum speed at this configuration is 9375 rpm. The pole pair length is 4mm (2mm north pole / 2mm south pole) for the AS5304, and 2.4mm (1.2mm north pole / 1.2mm south pole) for the AS5306. The chip accepts a magnetic field strength down to 5mT (peak). Both chips are available with p ush-pull outputs (AS530xA) o r with o pen drain outputs (AS530xB) . The AS5304/AS5306 are available in a small 20-pin TSSOP package and specified for an operating ambient temperature of -40° to +125°C. 3 • • • • • • • • • K ey Features H igh speed, up to 20m/s (AS5304) 12m/s (AS5306) M agnetic pole pair length: 4 mm (AS5304) o r 2 .4mm (AS5306) R esolution: 2 5µm (AS5304) o r 1 5µm (AS5306) 4 0 pulses / 160 positions per magnetic period. 1 i ndex pulse per pole pair L inear movement magnetic strips measurement using multi-pole C ircular off-axis movement measurement using multipole magnetic rings 4 .5 to 5.5V operating voltage M agnetic field strength indicator, magnetic field alarm for end-of-strip or missing magnet 4 A pplications T he AS5304/AS5306 are ideal for high speed linear motion and off-axis rotation measurement in applications such as • • • • e lectrical motors X -Y-stages r otation knobs i ndustrial drives F igure 1: R evision 1.5 AS5304 (AS5306) with multi-pole ring magnet.

The magnetic field strength of the multi-pole magnet should be in the range of 5 to 60mT at the chip surface. The Hall elements on the AS5304/AS5306 are arranged in a linear array. By moving the multi-pole magnet over the Hall array, a sinusoidal signal (SIN) is generated internally. With proper configuration of the Hall elements, a second 90° phase shifted sinusoidal signal (COS) is obtained. Using an interpolation circuit, the length of a pole pair is divided into 160 positions and further decoded into 40 quadrature pulses. An Automatic Gain Control provides a large dynamic input range of the magnetic field. An Analog output pin (AO) provides an analog voltage that changes with the strength of the magnetic field (see chapter 8).

Direction of rotation is encoded into two signals A and B that are phase-shifted by 90º. Depending on the direction of rotation, A leads B (CW) or B leads A (CCW). 7 .1.1 I ndex Pulse 40 1 2 40 1 2 A 40 1 2 40 1 2 A s ingle index pulse is generated once for every pole pair. One pole pair is interpolated to 40 quadrature pulses (160 steps), so one index pulse is generated after every 40 quadrature pulses (see Figure 6) The Index output is switched to Index = high, when a magnet is placed over the Hall array as shown in Figure 7, top graph: the north pole of the magnet is placed over the left side of the IC (top view, pin#1 at bottom left) and the south pole is placed over the right side of the IC. The index output will switch back to Index = low, when the magnet is moved by one LSB from position X=0 to X=X1, as shown in Figure 7, bottom graph. One LSB is 25µm for AS5304 and 15µm for AS5306. N ote: Since the small step size of 1 LSB is hardly recognizable in a correctly scaled graph it is shown as an exaggerated step in the bottom graph of Figure 7 .

This condition is indicated by using a combination of A, B and Index, that does not occur in normal operation: A low magnetic field is indicated with: Index = high A=B=low 7 .1.3 V ertical Distance between Magnet and IC T he recommended vertical distance between magnet and IC depends on the strength of the magnet and the length of the magnetic pole. Typically, the vertical distance between magnet and chip surface should not exceed ½ of the pole length. That means for AS5304, having a pole length of 2.0mm, the maximum vertical gap should be 1.0mm, For the AS5306, having a pole length of 1.2mm, the maximum vertical gap should be 0.6mm These figures refer to the chip surface. Given a typical distance of 0.2mm between chip surface and IC package surface, the recommended vertical distances between m agnet and IC surface a re therefore: AS 5304: ≤ 0 .8mm AS 5306: ≤ 0 .4mm Revision 1.5 www.austriamicrosystems.com P age 5 of 13 A S5304/AS5306 Integrated Hall IC for linear and off-axis rotary motion detection X=0 X Magnet drawn at index position X=0 CW magnet movement direction Hall Array Center Line N 4.220±0.235 S Index = High Pin 1 Chip Top view 3.0475±0.235 25µm (AS5304) 15µm (AS5306) X=0 X=X1 X Magnet drawn at position X1 (exaggerated) CW magnet movement direction Hall Array Center Line N 4.220±0.235 S Index = Low Pin 1 Chip Top view 3.0475±0.235 F igure 7: Magnet placement for index pulse generation 7 .1.4 S oft Stop Feature for Linear Movement Measurement W hen using long multi-pole strips, it may often be necessary to start from a defined home (or zero) position and obtain absolute position information by counting the steps from the defined home position. The AS5304/AS5306 provide a soft stop feature that eliminates the need for a separate electro-mechanical home position switch or an optical light barrier switch to indicate the home position. The magnetic field warning indicator (see 7.1.2) together with the index pulse can be used to indicate a unique home position on a magnetic strip: 1. 2. F irst the AS5304/AS5306 move to the end of the strip, until a magnetic field warning is displayed (Index = high, A=B=low) T hen, the AS5304/AS5306 move back towards the strip until the first index position is reached (note: an index position is generated once for every pole pair, it is indicated with: Index = high, A=B= high). Depending on the polarity of the strip magnet, the first index position may be generated when the end of the magnet strip only covers one half of the Hall array. This position is not recommended as a defined home position, as the accuracy of the AS5304/AS5306 are reduced as long as the multi-pole strip does not fully cover the Hall array.

I t is therefore recommended to continue to the next (second) index position from the end of the strip (Index = high, A=B= high). This position can now be used as a defined home position. 7 .2 I ncremental Hysteresis I f the magnet is sitting right at the transition point between two steps, the noise in the system may cause the incremental outputs to jitter back and forth between these two steps, especially when the magnetic field is weak. To avoid this unwanted jitter, a hysteresis has been implemented. The hysteresis lies between 1 and 2 LSB, depending on device scattering. Figure 8 shows an example of 1LSB hysteresis: the horizontal axis is the lateral position of the magnet as it scans across the IC, the vertical axis is the change of the incremental outputs, as they step forward (blue line) with movement in +X direction and backward (red line) in –X direction.

It is better than 1LSB for both AS5304 and AS5306, assuming an ideal magnet. Pole length variations and imperfections of the magnet material, which lead to a non-sinusoidal magnetic field will attribute to additional linearity errors. 7 .3.1 E rror Caused by Pole Length Variations AS5304 Systematic Linearity Error caused by Pole Length Deviation 140 120 100 80 60 40 20 0 1500 Error [µm] F igure 9 and Figure 10 show the error caused by a non-ideal pole length of the multi-pole strip or ring.

For optimum performance it is therefore essential to mount the IC such that the Hall sensors are exactly underneath the magnet at the radius where the pole length is 2.0mm (AS5304) or 1.2mm (AS5306), see also 8.1.2. Note that this is an additional error, which must be added to the intrinsic errors INL (see 7.3) and DNL (see 7.4).

In an ideal system, every change of the incremental outputs would occur after exactly one LSB (e.g. 25µm on AS5304). In practice however, this step size is not ideal, the output state will change after 1LSB +/-DNL. The DNL must be
