Detailed Description
The MAX1452 provides amplification, calibration, and temperature compensation to enable an overall performance approaching the inherent repeatability of the sensor. The fully analog signal-path introduces no quantization noise in the output signal while enabling digitally controlled trimming with the integrated 16-bit DACs. Offset and span can be calibrated to within ±0.02% of span. The MAX1452 architecture includes a programmable sensor excitation, a 16-step programmable-gain amplifier (PGA), a 768-byte (6144 bits) internal EEPROM, four 16-bit DACs, an uncommitted op amp, and an on-chip temperature sensor.The MAX1452 also provides a unique temperature compensation strategy for offset TC and FSOTC that was developed to provide a remarkable degree of flexibility while minimizing testing costs. The customer can select from one to 114 temperature points to compensate their sensor. This allows the latitude to compensate a sensor with a simple first order linear correction or match an unusual temperature curve. Programming up to 114 independent 16-bit EEPROM locations corrects performance in 1.5°C temperature increments over a range of -40°C to +125°C. For sensors that exhibit a characteristic temperature performance, a select number of calibration points can be used with a number of preset values that define the temperature curve. In cases where the sensor is at a different temperature than the ASIC, the MAX1452 uses the sensor bridge itself to provide additional temperature correction.
The single pin, serial Digital Input-Output (DIO) communication architecture and the ability to timeshare its activity with the sensor’s output signal enables output sensing and calibration programming on a single line by parallel connecting OUT and DIO. The MAX1452 provides a Secure-Lock feature that allows the customer to prevent modification of sensor coefficients and the 52-byte user definable EEPROM data after the sensor has been calibrated. The Secure-Lock feature also provides a hardware override to enable factory rework and recalibration by assertion of logic high on the UNLOCK pin. The MAX1452 allows complete calibration and sensor verification to be performed at a single test station. Once calibration coefficients have been stored in the ASIC, the customer can choose to retest in order to verify performance as part of a regular QA audit or to generate final test data on individual sensors. The MAX1452’s low current consumption and the integrated uncommitted op amp enables a 4–20mA output signal format in a sensor that is completely powered from a 2-wire current loop. Frequency response can be user-adjusted to values lower than the 3.2kHz bandwidth by using the uncommitted op amp and simple passive components. The MAX1452 (Figure 1) provides an analog amplification path for the sensor signal. It also uses an analog architecture for first-order temperature correction. A digitally controlled analog path is then used for nonlinear temperature correction. Calibration and correction is achieved by varying the offset and gain of a programmable-gain-amplifier (PGA) and by varying the sensor bridge excitation current or voltage. The PGA

Offset Correction
Initial offset correction is accomplished at the input stage of the signal gain amplifiers by a coarse offset setting. Final offset correction occurs through the use of a temperature indexed lookup table with 176 16-bit entries. The on-chip temperature sensor provides a unique 16-bit offset trim value from the table with an indexing resolution of approximately 1.5°C from -40°C to +125°C. Every millisecond, the on-chip temperature sensor provides indexing into the offset lookup table in EEPROM and the resulting value transferred to the offset DAC register. The resulting voltage is fed into a summing junction at the PGA output, compensating the sensor offset with a resolution of ±76µV (±0.0019% FSO). If the offset TC DAC is set to zero then the maximum temperature error is equivalent to one degree of temperature drift of the sensor, given the Offset DAC has corrected the sensor at every 1.5°C. The temperature indexing boundaries are outside of the specified Absolute Maximum Ratings . The minimum indexing value is 00hex corresponding to approximately -69°C. All temperatures below this value will output the coefficient value at index 00hex. The maximum indexing value is AFhex, which is the highest lookup table entry. All temperatures higher than approximately 184°C will output the highest lookup table index value. No indexing wrap-around errors are produced.

FSO Correction
Two functional blocks control the FSO gain calibration. First, a coarse gain is set by digitally selecting the gain of the PGA. Second, FSO DAC sets the sensor bridge current or voltage with the digital input obtained from a temperature-indexed reference to the FSO lookup table in EEPROM. FSO correction occurs through the use of a temperature indexed lookup table with 176 16-bit entries. The on-chip temperature sensor provides a unique FSO trim from the table with an indexing resolution approaching one 16-bit value at every 1.5°C from -40°C to +125°C. The temperature indexing boundaries are outside of the specified A bsolute Maximum Ratings. The minimum indexing value is 00hex corresponding to approximately -69 ° C. All temperatures below this value will output the coefficient value at index 00hex. The maximum indexing value is AFhex, which is the highest lookup table entry. All temperatures higher than approximately 184°C will output the highest lookup table index value. No indexing wraparound errors are produced.
utilizes a switched capacitor CMOS technology, with an input referred offset trimming range of more than ±150mV with an approximate 3µV resolution (16 bits). The PGA provides gain values from 39V/V to 240V/V in 16 steps. The MAX1452 uses four 16-bit DACs with calibration coefficients stored by the user in an internal 768 x 8 EEPROM (6144 bits). This memory contains the following information, as 16-bit wide words: • Configuration Register • • • • • Offset Calibration Coefficient Table Offset Temperature Coefficient Register FSO (Full-Span Output) Calibration Table FSO Temperature Error Correction Coefficient Register 52 bytes (416 bits) uncommitted for customer programming of manufacturing data (e.g., serial number and date)

ture errors. The piezoresistive sensor is powered by a current source resulting in a temperature-dependent bridge voltage due to the sensor's temperature resistance coefficient (TCR). The reference inputs of the offset TC DAC and FSOTC DAC are connected to the bridge voltage. The DAC output voltages will track the bridge voltage as it varies with temperature, and by varying the offset TC and FSOTC digital code a portion of the bridge voltage, which is temperature dependent, is used to compensate the first order temperature errors. The internal feedback resistors (RISRC and RSTC) for FSO temperature compensation are optimized to 75kΩ for silicon piezoresistive sensors. However, since the required feedback resistor values are sensor dependent, external resistors may also be used. The internal resistors selection bit in the configuration register selects between internal and external feedback resistors. To calculate the required offset TC and FSOTC compensation coefficients, two test-temperatures are needed. After taking at least two measurements at each temperature, calibration software (in a host computer) calculates the correction coefficients and writes them to the internal EEPROM. With coefficients ranging from 0000hex to FFFFhex and a +5V reference, each DAC has a resolution of 76µV. Two of the DACs (offset TC and FSOTC) utilize the sensor bridge voltage as a reference. Since the sensor bridge voltage is approximately set to +2.5V the FSOTC and offset TC exhibit a step size of less than 38µV. For high accuracy applications (errors less than 0.25%), the first-order offset and FSOTC should be compensated with the offset TC and FSOTC DACs, and the residual higher order terms with the lookup table. The offset and FSO compensation DACs provide unique compensation values for approximately 1.5°C of temperature change as the temperature indexes the address pointer through the coefficient lookup table. Changing the offset does not effect the FSO, however changing the FSO will affect the offset due to nature of the bridge. The temperature is measured on both the MAX1452 die and at the bridge sensor. It is recommended to compensate the first-order temperature errors using the bridge sensor temperature.
MAX1452
Typical Ratiometric Operating Circuit
Ratiometric output configuration provides an output that is proportional to the power supply voltage. This output can then be applied to a ratiometric ADC to produce a digital value independent of supply voltage. Ratiometricity is an important consideration for batteryoperated instruments, automotive, and some industrial applications. The MAX1452 provides a high-performance ratiometric output with a minimum number of external components (Figure 2). These external components include the following: • One supply bypass capacitor. • • One optional output EMI suppression capacitor. Two optional resistors, RISRC and RSTC, for special sensor bridge types.

Typical Nonratiometric Operating Circuit (12VDC < VPWR < 40VDC)
Nonratiometric output configuration enables the sensor power to vary over a wide range. A high performance voltage reference, such as the MAX6105, is incorporated in the circuit to provide a stable supply and reference for MAX1452 operation. A typical example is shown in Figure 3. Nonratiometric operation is valuable when wide ranges of input voltage are to be expected and the system A/D or readout device does not enable ratiometric operation.
Internal Calibration Registers (ICRs)
The MAX1452 has five 16-bit internal calibration registers that are loaded from EEPROM, or loaded from the serial digital interface. Data can be loaded into the internal calibration registers under three different circumstances. Normal Operation, Power-On Initialization Sequence • The MAX1452 has been calibrated, the SecureLock byte is set (CL[7:0] = FFhex) and UNLOCK is low. Power is applied to the device.

Typical 2-Wire, Loop Powered, 4–20mA Operating Circuit
Process Control systems benefit from a 4–20mA current loop output format for noise immunity, long cable runs, and 2-wire sensor operation. The loop voltages can range from 12VDC to 40VDC and are inherently nonratiometric. The low current consumption of the MAX1452 allows it to operate from loop power with a simple 4–20mA drive circuit efficiently generated using the integrated uncommitted op amp (Figure 4).

Internal EEPROM
The internal EEPROM is organized as a 768 by 8-bit memory. It is divided into 12 pages, with 64 bytes per page. Each page can be individually erased. The memory structure is arranged as shown in Table 1. The lookup tables for ODAC and FSODAC are also shown, with the respective temp-index pointer. Note that the ODAC table occupies a continuous segment, from address 000hex to address 15Fhex, whereas the FSODAC table is divided in two parts, from 200hex to 2FFhex, and from 1A0hex to 1FFhex. With the exception of the general purpose user bytes, all values are 16-bit wide words formed by two adjacent byte locations (high byte and low byte). The MAX1452 compensates for sensor offset, FSO, and temperature errors by loading the internal calibration registers with the compensation values. These compensation values can be loaded to registers directly via

auto-load the registers from EEPROM and be ready for use without further configuration after each power-up. The EEPROM is configured as an 8-bit wide array so each of the 16-bit registers is stored as two 8-bit quantities. The configuration register, FSOTCDAC and OTC11

Low-Cost Precision Sensor Signal Conditioner MAX1452
DAC registers are loaded from the pre-assigned locations in the EEPROM. The ODAC and FSODAC are loaded from the EEPROM lookup tables using an index pointer that is a function of temperature. An ADC converts the integrated temperature sensor to an 8-bit value every 1ms. This digitized value is then transferred into the temp-index register. The typical transfer function for the temp-index is as follows: temp-index = 0.69 ✕ Temperature (°C) + 47.58 where temp-index is truncated to an 8-bit integer value. Typical values for the temp-index register are given in Table 6. Note that the EEPROM is byte wide and the registers that are loaded from EEPROM are 16 bits wide. Thus each index value points to two bytes in the EEPROM. Maxim programs all EEPROM locations to FFhex with the exception of the oscillator frequency setting and Secure-Lock byte. OSC[2:0] is in the Configuration Register (Table 3). These bits should be maintained at the factory preset values. Programming 00hex in the Secure-Lock byte (CL[7:0] = 00hex), configures the DIO as an asynchronous serial input for calibration and test purposes. terminates the baud rate synchronization sequence. This initialization sequence on DIO should occur after a period of 1ms after stable power is applied to the device. This allows time for the power-on reset function to complete and the DIO pin to be configured by Secure-Lock or the UNLOCK pin.
Reinitialization Sequence
The MAX1452 allows for relearning the baud rate. The reinitialization sequence is one byte transmission of FFhex, as follows. 11111111011111111111111111 When a serial reinitialization sequence is received, the receive logic resets itself to its power-up state and waits for the initialization sequence. The initialization sequence must follow the reinitialization sequence in order to re-establish the baud rate.
Serial Interface Command Format
All communication commands into the MAX1452 follow a defined format utilizing an interface register set (IRS). The IRS is an 8-bit command that contains both an interface register set data (IRSD) nibble (4-bit) and an interface register set address (IRSA) nibble (4-bit). All internal calibration registers and EEPROM locations are accessed for read and write through this interface register set. The IRS byte command is structured as follows: IRS[7:0] = IRSD[3:0], IRSA[3:0] Where: • IRSA[3:0] is the 4-bit interface register set address and indicates which register receives the data nibble IRSD[3:0]. • • • IRSA[0] is the first bit on the serial interface after the start bit. IRSD[3:0] is the 4-bit interface register set data. IRSD[0] is the fifth bit received on the serial interface after the start bit.
Communication Protocol
The DIO serial interface is used for asynchronous serial data communications between the MAX1452 and a host calibration test system or computer. The MAX1452 will automatically detect the baud rate of the host computer when the host transmits the initialization sequence. Baud rates between 4800bps and 38,400bps can be detected and used regardless of the internal oscillator frequency setting. Data format is always 1 start bit, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit and no parity. Communications are only allowed when Secure-Lock is disabled (i.e., CL[7:0] = 00hex) or the UNLOCK pin is held high.
The IRS address decoding is shown in Table 9.
Initialization Sequence
S ending the initialization sequence shown below enables the MAX1452 to establish the baud rate that initializes the serial port. The initialization sequence is one byte transmission of 01hex, as follows. 1111111101000000011111111 The first start bit 0 initiates the baud rate synchronization sequence. The 8 data bits 01hex (LSB first) follow this and then the stop bit, which is indicated above as a 1,

Special Command Sequences
A s pecial command register to internal logic (CRIL[3:0]) causes execution of special command sequences within the MAX1452. These command sequences are listed as CRIL command codes as shown in Table 10.
Write Examples
A 16-bit write to any of the internal calibration registers is performed as follows:

1) Write the 16 data bits to DHR[15:0] using four byte accesses into the interface register set. 2) Write the address of the target internal calibration register to ICRA[3:0]. 3) Write the load internal calibration register (LdICR) command to CRIL[3:0]. When a LdICR command is issued to the CRIL register, the calibration register loaded depends on the address in the internal calibration register address (ICRA). Table 11 specifies which calibration register is decoded.
register designated by IRSP[3:0] are sent out as a byte framed by a start bit and a stop bit. Once the tester finishes sending the RdIRS command, it must three-state its connection to DIO to allow the MAX1452 to drive the DIO line. The MAX1452 will threestate DIO high for 1 byte time and then drive with the start bit in the next bit period followed by the data byte and stop bit. The sequence is shown in Figure 5. The data returned on a RdIRS command depends on the address in IRSP. Table 12 defines what is returned for the various addresses.
Erasing and Writing the EEPROM
The internal EEPROM needs to be erased (bytes set to FFhex) prior to programming the desired contents. Remember to save the 3 MSBs of byte 161hex (highbyte of the configuration register) and restore it when programming its contents to prevent modification of the trimmed oscillator frequency. The internal EEPROM can be entirely erased with the ERASE command, or partially erased with the PageErase command (see Table 10, CRIL command). It is necessary to wait 6ms after issuing the ERASE or PageErase command. After the EEPROM bytes have been erased (value of every byte = FFhex), the user can program its contents, following the procedure below: 1) Write the 8 data bits to DHR[7:0] using two byte accesses into the interface register set. 2) Write the address of the target internal EEPROM location to IEEA[9:0] using three byte accesses into the interface register set. 3) Write the EEPROM write command (EEPW) to CRIL[3:0].
Multiplexed Analog Output
When a RdAlg command is written to CRIL[3:0] the analog signal designated by ALOC[3:0] is asserted on the OUT pin. The duration of the analog signal is determined by ATIM[3:0] after which the pin reverts to threestate. While the analog signal is asserted in the OUT pin, DIO is simultaneously three-stated, enabling a parallel wiring of DIO and OUT. When DIO and OUT are connected in parallel, the host computer or calibration system must three-state its connection to DIO after asserting the stop bit. Do not load the OUT line when reading internal signals, such as BDR, FSOTC...etc. T he analog output sequence with DIO and OUT is shown in Figure 6. The duration of the analog signal is controlled by ATIM[3:0] as given in Table 13. The analog signal driven onto the OUT pin is determined by the value in the ALOC register. The signals are specified in Table 14.
Test System Configuration
The MAX1452 is designed to support an automated production test system with integrated calibration and temperature compensation. Figure 7 shows the implementation concept for a low-cost test system capable of testing many transducer modules connected in par13

allel. The MAX1452 allows for a high degree of flexibility in system calibration design. This is achieved by use of single-wire digital communication and three-state output nodes. Depending upon specific calibration requirements one may connect all the OUTs in parallel or connect DIO and OUT on each individual module.
Set next test temperature: • • • • • Calibrate offset and FSO using the ODAC and FSODAC, respectively. Store calibration data in the test computer or MAX1452 EEPROM user memory. Calculate the correction coefficients. Download correction coefficients to EEPROM. Perform a final test.
Sensor Compensation Overview
Compensation requires an examination of the sensor performance over the operating pressure and temperature range. Use a minimum of two test pressures (e.g., zero and full-span) and two temperatures. More test pressures and temperatures will result in greater accuracy. A typical compensation procedure can be summarized as follows: Set reference temperature (e.g., 25°C): • Initialize each transducer by loading their respective registers with default coefficients (e.g., based on mean values of offset, FSO and bridge resistance) to prevent overload of the MAX1452. • Set the initial bridge voltage (with the FSODAC) to half of the supply voltage. Measure the bridge voltage using the BDR or OUT pins, or calculate based on measurements. Calibrate the output offset and FSO of the transducer using the ODAC and FSODAC, respectively. Store calibration data in the test computer or MAX1452 EEPROM user memory.
Sensor Calibration and Compensation Example
The MAX1452 temperature compensation design corrects both sensor and IC temperature errors. This enables the MAX1452 to provide temperature compensation approaching the inherent repeatability of the sensor. An example of the MAX1452’s capabilities is shown in Figure 8. A repeatable piezoresistive sensor with an initial offset of 16.4mV and a span of 55.8mV was converted into a compensated transducer (utilizing the piezoresistive sensor with the MAX1452) with an offset of 0.5000V and a span of 4.0000V. Nonlinear sensor offset and FSO temperature errors, which were on the order of 20% to 30% FSO, were reduced to under ±0.1% FSO. The following graphs show the output of the uncompensated sensor and the output of the compensated transducer. Six temperature points were used to obtain this result.
