The linear output voltage is proportional to the magnetic flux density. The ratiometric output voltage is proportional to the supply voltage. The MLX90251 possesses active error correction circuitry, which virtually eliminates the offset errors normally associated with analog Hall Effect devices. All the parameters of the MLX90251 transfer characteristic are fully programmable. The VOQ (VOUT @ B = 0 Gauss), the Sensitivity, the slope polarity, the Output Clamping levels, the thermal Sensitivity drift, the internal bias point and a low-pass filter are all programmable in end-user applications. The MLX90251 has a very stable thermal compensation for both the Sensitivity and the VOQ over a broad temperature range. For traceability purpose the MLX90251 will carry a unique ID number programmed by Melexis and 24 bits of EEPROM memory are allocated for a user programmed serial number.

Programmable Features The MLX90251 has many programmable features for adjusting the output characteristic. The features are utilized by writing data into the redundant non-volatile EEPROM. Below is a quick list and description of all the programmable parameters. Many of the parameters are set by Melexis and they are not used by the end customer. Later sections of the data sheet give details on how the parameters are used.

Not included in redundant area of the EEPROM. †† 12.1. Output Quiescent Voltage (VOQ) Two parameters, AGND and OFFSET, are used for adjustment of the VOQ. The AGND is a 10 bit parameter for coarse adjustment of VOQ. It has a resolution of approximately 0.014V and a range from -100%VDD to 200%VDD. The OFFSET is a 10 bit parameter with a resolution of approximately -0.005V. The OFFSET parameter is used for fine adjustment of the VOQ, while the AGND parameter is used to set the range. The large adjustable range allows the MLX90251 to be used in an unipolar magnetic system without limiting the output voltage span. The formula below shows how the AGND and OFFSET parameters combine to set the VOQ.  14.25V   5.0V  VOQ = −0.75V +  ∗ AGND  +  − ∗ OFFSET    1023  VDD =5.00V  1023 This formula approximates the typical VOQ of the MLX90251. The actual VOQ formula varies slightly from chip to chip. Melexis calibrates the AGND setting during final test so that the VOQ is approximately 50%VDD with OFFSET set to 512. This gives the VOQ a range of 0%VDD to 100%VDD without adjusting the AGND value. The OFFSET parameter is often used to set the offset in the application's output transfer characteristic. 12.2. Thermal VOQ Drift (DRIFT) The Thermal VOQ Drift is tuned using 4 bits. This parameter, DRIFT, is calibrated for each unit by Melexis during final test. The value is set to achieve a VOQ accuracy below 10mV over a temperature span of 25°C to 150°C. This parameter is not used by the end customer. 12.3. Sensitivity, Rough Gain and Fine Gain The Sensitivity of the MLX90251 is controlled through parameters linked to dedicated internal amplification stages. The parameter Rough Gain (RG), or pre-amplifier, has 4 bits for adjustment of two stages. The two MSB affect the Differential Input Differential Output (DIDO) stage. The two LSB effect the Differential to Single output (DTS) stage. The gain of both the DIDO and DTS are multiplied to get the total RG. The table below shows the theoretical small signal amplifier gain vs. the parameter RG. The pre-amplifier is chopper stabilized and the refresh frequency is adapted automatically to the RG setting to match the chopper gain-bandwidth product.

The stage (parameter FG) follows the RG and provides a 10 bit adjustment. The small signal gain of the FG is within 1.0 and 2.5. The RG and FG parameters are adjusted in the application to calibrate the device's sensitivity (gain) and output slope transfer characteristic. The function for the fine gain is given in the following equation: Fine Gain = 1 1 − 0 .6 * FG 1023 Note. The one bit parameter INVERT is used to fix the “sign” of the sensitivity. A value of 0 makes the Sensitivity positive and the output voltage increases in response to an increasing South magnetic field. A value of 1 makes the Sensitivity negative and the output voltage decreases in response to an increasing South magnetic field. Refer to section 10.5, Sensitivity Polarity, for more information on INVERT. 12.4. Sensitivity Range Selection Each unit is characterized over temperature during final test to optimize its performance and accuracy. To achieve the best possible Sensitivity Temperature Compensation, TempCo, each unit is optimized for use within a specific Sensitivity range. This is represented in the ordering information by the option code. There are four available ranges, option codes 0, 1, 2 and 3. The option code corresponds with the two MSB of the RG parameter. Each device is tested to meet the TempCo specification in the Sensitivity range determined by the RG parameter (RG = 0...3, RG = 4…7, RG = 8…11 or RG = 12…15), regardless of the FG parameter.

The gray areas are representative of the chip to chip dispersion (i.e.: for the same RG and FG parameters, the Sensitivity can vary from chip to chip). There is a large overlap between the different ranges for use of one range for applications with large magnetic and/or mechanical dispersions. The Sensitivity graphs and tables can be used to select the right device type for the application. If one is unsure of the applications magnetic design and the desired Sensitivity range Melexis recommends option code 2.

REVISION 014 - NOVEMBER 2017 3901090251 Page 12 MLX90251 Programmable Linear Hall Effect Sensor Datasheet 12.5. Sensitivity Polarity (INVERT) INVERT) The slope transfer characteristic defines the Sensitivity. The INVERT parameter changes the Sensitivity's polarity, or the slope's direction. This allows the device to accommodate the application requirements and the magnet's polarity. The slope is inverted in the first stage of the IC, at the Hall plate. With INVERT set to 0, the output voltage increases when an increasing South magnetic field is applied and decreases in the presence of an increasing North magnetic field. An INVERT value of 1 causes the output voltage to increase in the presence of a North magnetic field and decrease in the presence of a South magnetic field. The magnetic field polarity is referenced to the field component perpendicular to the top-face of the MLX90251. 12.6. Clamping Levels (CLAMPLOW, CLAMPHIGH) Two independent values, called the clamping levels, can limit the output voltage range or swing. The CLAMPLOW parameter adjusts the minimum output voltage level, ClampLo. The CLAMPHIGH sets the maximum output voltage level, ClampHi. Both parameters have 10 bits of adjustment with a resolution of approximately 0.005V. The formulas below give a close approximation of the output clamp voltage. The actual clamping level formulas vary slightly from chip to chip. If CLAMPLOW exceeds CLAMPHIGH the output voltage is fixed at the high clamp voltage level. The CLAMPHIGH and CLAMPLOW have an initial value of 512, set by Melexis. This results in a fixed output voltage of approximately 50% VDD. ClampLo = 5.10V ∗ CLAMPLOW 1023 V DD = 5.00V ClampHi = 5.10V ∗ CLAMPHIGH 1023 V DD = 5.00V At the point the output voltage switches between the linear operating region and the clamping region the output can deviate slightly. This is represented by the grey areas in the figure below. The limits for deviation in the Y axis are listed in Table 10. The deviation in the X axis is calculated from the application's transfer function. The Clamp Comparator Offset does not affect the output linearity or clamp voltage accuracy. During calibration it is recommended to set the clamp voltage outside of the transition region (0V to 5V).

Filter (FILTER) The MLX90251 includes two programmable low-pass filters located within the chopper amplifier stages. The two lowpass filters are controlled through a 4 bit parameter, FILTER. The FILTER value 0 corresponds to minimum filtering, maximum speed (impulse response time), and maximum output noise. The value 15 provides the maximum filtering, minimum speed, and minimum output noise. It is important to note the noise is also linked to the gain settings. The FILTER parameter needs to be adjusted to achieve optimal performance. The next table shows typical values the cutoff frequency at -3 dB versus FILTER and RG parameters.

Sensitivity Temperature Compensation Compensation (TC, (TC, TCW, TCW, TC2) The change in the device's Sensitivity versus temperature is defined as the Sensitivity Temperature Compensation, TempCo. In an application the slope output transfer characteristic is often affected by temperature. Fluctuations in temperature can cause variations in the air gap, mechanical alignment and magnetic field. The Sensitivity Temperature Compensation feature compensates for these effects. 2 Three parameters, TC, TCW, TC are used for adjustment of the TempCo. The TCW is used to adjust the TempCo range, 2 TC is for fine adjustment of the TempCo value, and TC effects the TempCo linear response. To simplify use of these parameters Melexis stores a look up table within the EEPROM of each device. The look up table is optimized for each device by characterizing the unit over temperature at final test. The value of TempCo is often determined by the magnet. In the application the TempCo is adjusted to compensate for the temperature coefficient of the magnet. To adjust the value the look up table is read from the device. The REVISION 014 - NOVEMBER 2017 3901090251 Page 14 MLX90251 Programmable Linear Hall Effect Sensor Datasheet parameters are then calculated to match the desired value. The Melexis PTC hardware and software tools contain built in functions for programming the TempCo. TempCo Range (ppm / °C) Accuracy (ppm / °C) 0 to 500 500 to 1200 1200 to 2000 ± 100 ± 150 ± 200 Table 12: TempCo Accuracy Note: The budget error of the whole system, the compensation mismatch (system Vs. IC) tolerance should be taken into consideration during the design. Table 11 is valid for Rough Gain within the specified option code. See section 10.4 for information on selecting the option code. 12.9. Diagnostic Output Level (FAULTLEV) The MLX90251 EEPROM memory content is secured through a parity check. This self-diagnostic feature brings the output to a defined range in case of a parity error. The parameter, FAULTLEV, is used to define the parity error diagnostic state. With the FAULTLEV set to 0 a parity error event will result in an output diagnostic voltage low. With the FAULTLEV set to 1 a parity error event will result in an output diagnostic voltage high. To get rid of the output load influence the output diagnostic voltage level can be fixed to either Ground (to be used with pull-down load) or VDD (to be used with pull-up load). Melexis PTC software and hardware tools have built in functions for calculating and programming the parity. Note: The MLX90251 EEPROM is also redundant. Each parameter bit is written in three separate cells and a “majority voting” is applied to determine its status. A parity error is detected only if two out of the three cells unexpectedly change state. The bits available for the customer ID are not redundant. 12.10. The EEPROM, EEPROM, Parity, and Melexis CRC The memory cells of the EEPROM are arranged in a table of four columns and one hundred twenty eight rows. This configuration gives redundancy to the parameters stored in the EEPROM. Each parameter bit is written in three separate cells in an individual row. A majority voting applied to the three cells determines the logic status of the bit. A parameter bit only toggles state in error if two out of three memory cells, within a row, unexpectedly change. If this happens the feature, PARITY, forces the output voltage to the FAULTLEV diagnostic level. This ensures the device does not operate with a critical memory fault. The remaining memory cells are used for data storage. The status of these cells does not effect the device operation. For example the Customer ID, CUSTID, is stored in this area. Melexis stores the device ID information, TempCo look-up table and CRC bits in the extra cells. The CRC bits ensure the integrity of the Melexis data. Note: To avoid parity and CRC errors, the entire contents of the EEPROM must be read before programming. Melexis PTC software and hardware tools have built in functions for reading the EEPROM and handling parity. 12.11. Output Amplifier Configuration (MODE) The output buffer can be configured to accommodate capacitive loads and improve the saturation voltage (output swing). The two bit parameter, MODE, sets the current capacity of the output amplifier. Melexis sets this parameter to 1 at final test. This parameter is not used by the end customer.

Memory Lock (MEMLOCK) The Memory Lock feature prevents the device from entering programming mode and from any changes to the EEPROM. The entire EEPROM is locked by setting the MEMLOCK parameter to 1. This should be the last parameter set in the application. 12.13. IC traceability A unique ID number is programmed into the EEPROM of every IC. The ID number gives Melexis additional traceability to better service its customers. The ID number is composed of the lot number, wafer number, and wafer coordinates (X and Y). Memory is also available for the customer to add a serial number of the product or any other data. 13.

Applications Information 14.1. Application Circuits Circuits – VAVA-package Pin 2, TEST, is not used in applications. For EMC protection it is recommended to connect pin 2 to pin 3, Ground, as close as possible to the device pins. The values for capacitors, C1 and C2, can be adjusted to satisfy ESD and EMC requirements according to the environment. Ceramic capacitors are recommended for use in the application. However for stable operation, the global output capacitor (C2 + C3) should not be higher than 150nF. If higher capacitors (due to special ESD or EMC requirements) or special circuit configurations are requested, please contact Melexis. The MLX90251 can operate with a high impedance load and C2, a load resistor is not required. Figures 12.1-1…12.1-2 Application Circuits A voltage of 9V is required on VDD for programming. All additional components connected to VDD must be able to withstand the voltage. The MLX90251 is designed for operation with a stable 5V supply. If fast voltage transients occur additional filtering may be required. 14.2. Programming the Sensor To program the MLX90251 connection to VDD, GND, and VOUT is required. The device is placed into program mode by increasing the supply voltage to the VDD program level. In program mode data is clocked into the device through the output pin using the Melexis tri-level PTC protocol. The clock and data are integrated into one serial data stream, eliminating the need for a dedicated clock signal. The data is clocked at the leading edge of each bit. Figure 12.2-1 VDD Programming Level Figure 12.2-2 Tri-Level PTC Note: External capacitors and resistors will affect the rise and fall times for the programming waveforms. Program pulse timings may require adjustment for the application. The device cannot be programmed if MEMLOCK equals 1. REVISION 014 - NOVEMBER 2017 3901090251 Page 17 MLX90251 Programmable Linear Hall Effect Sensor Datasheet The EEPROM contents can be read from the device. This procedure, known as a read back, is done by sending a read command and then measuring the supply current. To successfully read the EEPROM it must be possible to measure the supply current to the device. The Melexis PTC hardware and software tools contain built in functions for reading the EEPROM. The MLX90251 can be programmed by using the PTC-04 programmer and the dedicated software tools. The timing and voltage levels are controlled through the programming hardware and software. Further details can be found in the MLX90251 software documentation. 14.3. Calibration Procedure The programmable features of the device allow for calibration within the application. This section gives general information for a two point calibration procedure. The two point calibration is the most common however, it is possible to adapt other procedures. 1.) The first step in the calibration procedure is to initialize the device. This is done by establishing communication and reading the contents of the EEPROM. 2.) The second step is to set the TempCo and FILTER settings. 3.) Step three is the evaluation of position one. During this step the output voltage is measured with initial values for RG, FG and OFFSET. 4.) Step four is the evaluation of position two. During this step, the output voltage is measured with the same values from step 3. From the measurements it is possible to calculate the slope and offset error. Next the output slope transfer characteristic versus FG and RG is interpolated. With this information the initial settings are adjusted and the output voltage is measured again. 5.) Step five is the final check and adjustment. At this stage small corrections are made to the OFFSET and FG parameters. Next, the output clamping parameters, CLAMPHIGH and CLAMPLOW, are determined. 6.) The sixth step is the program phase. Now that all the parameters are determined and the application requirements are satisfied, the settings are programmed into the EEPROM. 7.) The final step, seven, is the lock and verify step. Here the customer can perform any number of additional measurements and verify the EEPROM contents. After this is completed the MEMLOCK is set and the EEPROM is locked, preventing any further programming. Note: EEPROM verification is done by reading the contents of the EEPROM and comparing it to the data written. It is possible to read the EEPROM contents regardless of the status of MEMLOCK. The Melexis PTC software tools contain built in functions and procedures for calibrating the MLX90251. Please refer to the software documentation for more information on how to use the calibration tools. The output of the MLX90251 is ratiometric. To avoid calibration errors from fluctuations in the supply voltage, the output voltage should be measured as a percentage of the supply voltage.
