The Hall Effect sensor IC TLE4941 is designed to provide information about rotational
speed to modern vehicle dynamics control systems and ABS. The output has been
designed as a two wire current interface. The sensor operates without external
components and combines a fast power-up time with a low cut-off frequency. Excellent
accuracy and sensitivity is specified for harsh automotive requirements as a wide
temperature range, high ESD and EMC robustness. State-of-the art BiCMOS technology
is used for monolithic integration of the active sensor areas and the signal conditioning
circuitry.
Finally, the optimized piezo compensation and the integrated dynamic offset
compensation enable easy manufacturing and elimination of magnet offsets.
The TLE4941C is additionally provided with an overmolded 1.8 nF capacitor for
improved EMI performance.

Functional Description
The differential hall sensor IC detects the motion of ferromagnetic and permanent
magnet structures by measuring the differential flux density of the magnetic field. To
detect the motion of ferromagnetic objects the magnetic field must be provided by a back
biasing permanent magnet. Either south or north pole of the magnet can be attached to
the rear unmarked side of the IC package.
Magnetic offsets of up to ± 20 mT and device offsets are cancelled by a self-calibration
algorithm. Only a few transitions are necessary for self-calibration. After the initial
calibration sequence switching occurs when the input signal is crossing the arithmetic
mean of its max. and min. value (e.g. zero-crossing for sinusoidal signals).
The ON and OFF state of the IC are indicated by High and Low current consumption.
Circuit Description
The circuit is supplied internally by a 3 V voltage regulator. An on-chip oscillator serves
as clock generator for the digital part of the circuit.
TLE4941 signal path is comprised of a pair of hall probes, spaced at 2.5 mm, a
differential amplifier including a noise-limiting low-pass filter and a comparator feeding a
switched current output stage. In addition an offset cancellation feedback loop is
provided by a signal-tracking A/D converter, a digital signal processor (DSP) and an
offset cancellation D/A converter.
During the startup phase (un-calibrated mode) the output is disabled (I = ILOW).
The differential input signal is digitized in the speed A/D converter and fed into the DSP.
The minimum and maximum values of the input signal are extracted and their
corresponding arithmetic mean value is calculated. The offset of this mean value is
determined and fed into the offset cancellation DAC.
After successful correction of the offset, the output switching is enabled.
In running mode (calibrated mode) the offset correction algorithm of the DSP is switched
into a low-jitter mode, avoiding oscillation of the offset DAC LSB. Switching occurs at
zero-crossing. It is only affected by the (small) remaining offset of the comparator and by
the remaining propagation delay time of the signal path, mainly determined by the noiselimiting filter. Signals below a defined threshold ∆BLimit are not detected to avoid
unwanted parasitic switching.
Package Information
Pure tin covering (green lead plating) is used. Leadframe material is Wieland K62 (UNS:
C18090) and contains CuSn1CrNiTi. Product is RoHS (restriction of hazardous
substances) compliant when marked with letter G in front or after the data code marking
and may contain a data matrix code on the rear side of the package (see also information
note 136/03). Please refer to your Key account team or regional sales if you need further
information.

1) Magnetic amplitude values, sine magnetic field, limits refer to the 50% critera. 50% of edges are missing
2) The sensor requires up to nstart magnetic switching edges for valid speed information after power-up or after a
stand still condition. During that phase the output is disabled.
3) See “Appendix B”
4) One magnetic edge is defined as a montonic signal change of more than 3.3 mT
5) High frequency behavior not subject to production test - verified by design/characterization. Frequency above
2500 Hz may have influence on jitter performance and magnetic thresholds.
6) During fast offset alterations, due to the calibration algorithm, exceeding the specified duty cycle is permitted
for short time periods
7) Not subject to production test verified by design/characterization

Output Description
Under ideal conditions, the output shows a duty cycle of 50%. Under real conditions, the
duty cycle is determined by the mechanical dimensions of the target wheel and its
tolerances (40% to 60% might be exceeded for pitch >> 5 mm due to the zero-crossing
principle).

∆B = 2 mT sinusoidal input signal and the rising
edge (50%) of the signal current.

Occurrence of Initial Calibration Delay Time td,input
If there is no input signal (standstill), a new initial calibration is triggered each 0.7 s. This
calibration has a duration td,input of max. 300 µs. No input signal change is detected during
that initial calibration time.
In normal operation (signal startup) the probability of td,input to come into effect is:
td,input / time frame for new calibration 300 µs/700 ms = 0.05%.
After IC resets (e.g. after a significant undervoltage) td,input will always come into effect.
Magnetic Input Signal Extremely Close to a Switching Threshold of PGA at Signal
Startup
After signal startup generally all PGA switching into the appropriate gain state happens
within less than one signal period. This is included in the calculation for nDZ-Start. For the
very rare case that the signal amplitude is extremely close to a PGA switching threshold
and the full range of following speed ADC respectively, a slight change of the signal
amplitude can cause one further PGA switching. It can be caused by non-perfect
magnetic signal (e.g. amplitude modulation due to tolerances of pole-wheel, tooth wheel
or air gap variation). This additional PGA switching can result in a further delay of the
output signal (nDZ-Start) up to three magnetic edges leading to a worst case of nDZ-Start = 9.
Due to the low probability of this case it is not defined as max. value in the data sheet.

Asked Questions”).
