Advantages include high sensitivity so lower cost magnets such as alnico or ceramic can be used, insensitivity to shock and vibration, and ability to withstand large variations in the gap between the sensor and the magnet. The HMR4001 is manufactured with Honeywell's HMC1512 Magnetic Displacement Sensor IC, which provides better performance than Hall Effect devices and only needs a magnetic field source greater than 80 gauss. Dual frequency PWM and analog outputs plus a sleep mode function are included on board APPLICATIONS Block Diagram · Linear Displacement · Shaft Position · Angular Displacement · Proximity Detection Web Site: Email: 2001 HMR4001 www.magneticsensors.com ssec.customer.service@honeywell.com Published Jun 2001 Page 1 Honeywell Solid State Electronics Center 12001 State Highway 55 Plymouth, Minnesota 55441-4799 1-800-323-8295 HMR4001 SENSOR PRODUCTS Advance Information SPECIFICATIONS Characteristics Linear Position Range Accuracy Repeatability Angular Position Range Accuracy Repeatability Magnetic Field Strength Electrical Voltage Current Supply PWM Output Frequency Frequency Accuracy PWM Range PWM Amplitude Analog Output Range Physical Dimensions W eight Environment Temperature Operating Storage -40 -55 +85 +125 °C °C circuit board only circuit board only 15x48.5x12 5 mm grams Ambient Temperature (+23°C) 4.0 volts “1” Level Duty Cycle “1” Level at any Position 1 4.5 99 5.5 % Volts pk-pk FS = 5V (or open) FS = 0V Ambient Temperature (+23°C) +/-8 350 250 Hz Hz % Unregulated Active Mode - SLEEP pin = 5V (or open) Sleep Mode - SLEEP pin = 0V 6 7 80 gauss at sensor > 80 gauss at sensor 90 0.1 0.07 deg deg deg > 80 gauss at sensor > 80 gauss at sensor > 80 gauss at sensor 10 0.2 0.05 mm mm mm Conditions Min HMR4001 Typ Max Units Web Site: Email: 2001 HMR4001 www.magneticsensors.com ssec.customer.service@honeywell.com Published Jun 2001 Page 2 Honeywell Solid State Electronics Center 12001 State Highway 55 Plymouth, Minnesota 55441-4799 1-800-323-8295 HMR4001 SENSOR PRODUCTS Advance Information Pin Configuration Pin VA PW FS V+ SL GD Function ANALOG OUTPUT PWM OUTPUT FREQUENCY SELECT INPUT POWER SUPPLY INPUT SLEEP/WAKE INPUT GROUND Description Analog Version of the PWM Output Using a Low Pass Filter.

Ground Reference for Supply and I/O Circuit Board Layout Application Notes Very high precision position measurements using weak magnetic fields should note the influence of the earth’s magnetic field (~ 0.6 gauss) bias on the sensed magnet position. The center-line of HMC1512 sensor integrated circuit U1 is determined to be midpoint (50% Pulse Width, 2.5v Analog) for position sensing. Only one of the two sensor bridges in the HMC1512 is used for sensing the external magnetic field. The other magneto-resistive bridge network is used as temperature compensation network to retain precise positioning over a broad temperature range. Thus the single bridge provides its linearity over a 90° sweep (+/- 45°) as opposed to when both HMC1512 bridges are working together for a 180° (+/- 90°) sweep. For best performance, a magnetic field of at least 80 gauss measured at the sensor location should be maintained. A simple dipole magnet usually has the strongest field near its poles, and the field decreases with the distance. For example: An AlNiCo cylindrical magnet with a 0.25” diameter has field strength of 700 gauss at its surface. With a 0.25” gap between the sensor and the magnet, the field at the sensor is about 170 gauss. This is enough field strength to maintain the sensor in the saturation condition for most applications.
