2. Functional Description
The Hall programmer board V 5.1 serves as a communication interface between a PC
and the programmable Hall sensor connected to the board.
With a specific programming software, command strings are sent to the board, which
generate the serial protocol pattern for the sensor. After sending the protocol, the board
reads back the answer of the Hall sensor or in case of a communication error generates an error flag.
Depending on the command, the board can send the answer of the Hall sensor back to
the PC.
The Hall programmer board V 5.1 can be connected to a serial port of a PC (COM1,
COM2, COM3, or COM4) using a 1:1 cable with SUB-D-9 plugs.
2.1.
Software
For each of the programmable Hall sensor families, a specific PC software exists. This
software provides a graphical user interface based on Microsoft Visual Basic or LabView.
For detailed information on the software, please refer to the software documentation
enclosed in the software installation CD.
2.2.
Firmware
The firmware of the board is stored in an on-board flash memory. The current version
number of the firmware can be read out by sending a “v” command followed by a “t”
command (see Table 4–2).
If the Micronas VB software is used, the firmware version number is read out by selecting the menu item:
Help About.
It is easily possible to do a firmware update (see Section 3.4.1).
2.3.
Power-On Self-Test
Firmware version 1.27 or higher provides a power-on self-test procedure:
– After setting the supply voltage or pushing the reset button, the board performs a
self-test and measures all voltage levels.
– In case of an error, the status flag is set and the error LED ignites.
– If this happens, disconnect all sensors and try again. If the error persists, please
contact your supplier.

3. Usage of the Hall Programmer V 5.1
3.1.
Tips for Safe Programming of the Sensors
The Hall programmer board V 5.1 generates all voltage levels according to the specification of the serial protocol.
VPROG
external generation
In case of the sensors HAL805, HAL815, HAL817, HAL810, HAL824, HAL825,
HAL830, HAL835, HAL880, HAL1000 and HAL1002 the programming voltage VPROG
(which is necessary for the permanent storing of the data in the EEPROM memory) has
to be generated externally, i.e. by the programmer board. If VPROG is out of the specification limits, the programming of the EEPROM memory may be insufficient and the
reliability of the sensor may be reduced. Hence, the Hall programmer board V 5.1 is
equipped with an on-board A/D-converter which reads back the programming voltage
VPROG. The A/D-converter is polled every 80 µs.
If VPROG drops below 12.4 V, an error flag is set and the ERROR LED on the programmer board ignites. Please ensure that your software evaluates the error flags (see
Section 2.7).
VPROG
internal generation
In case of the sensors HAL855 and HAL856, the programming voltage is generated
internally. The supply voltage of the Hall sensor during programming must be 5.0 V.
The width of both pulses (erase and prom) is defined by the programmer board. In case
a customer-specific software is implemented, please ensure that the programming time
is set to 100 ms.
We recommend supervising the programming process and verification of the results
after programming the sensors (see Table 3–1).
Note: The programming voltage VPROG is measured at the output of the Hall programmer board. However, this measurement cannot consider any voltage drop which
may occur between the Hall programmer board and the Hall sensor.
The voltage drop between the programmer board and the Hall sensor must not
exceed 50 mV.
Please ensure that the Hall sensor and the programmer board are connected
low resistively to a common ground.
Note: Electrostatic discharges (ESD) may disturb the programming pulses. Please
take precautions against ESD.

Recommended Wiring
We recommend connecting the application to the board using shielded wires.
In order to minimize the risk of electromagnetic disturbances, the cable should be as
short as possible.
Note: Especially in noisy environments beneath power switches, electromagnetic
actuators, and the like, EMI-compliant layout of the wiring is mandatory.
For recommended cable parameters, please refer to Table 3–2.
Note: The programmer board reads back the programming voltage every 80 µs in
order to be able to detect short spikes on the output voltage line. If cables other
than those specified in Table 3–2 are used, such spikes may not be detected by
the board.

Firmware Update
The HAL Programmer V5.1 is equipped with a flash-memory. Thus, firmware-upgrades
can be done easily by flashing the new firmware into this memory. For this purpose the
software-tool-kit ‘FLASH IT’ is provided.
1. Unzip the package ‘Flashit.zip’ into a suitable working directory. When unzipping with
‘WinZip’ a sub-folder ‘\Flashit’ will be generated.
2. Close the jumper ‘BOOT’ beneath the ‘Reset’-button of the HAL Programmer Board.
3. Push the ‘Reset’-button.
4. Open the jumper ‘BOOT’ again.
5. Start the executable ‘Bootload.exe’ by double-clicking the icon in \Flashit.
6. After hitting the
Fig. 3–2:
icon, the flash process starts.
Flash procedure
Note: The flash process lasts for about 10 – 15 min. After the process has finished,
the board will be reset automatically and the new firmware will start working.
Note: The firmware to be loaded into the flash-memory is called ‘HALFLASH.H86’. It
must be stored in the same folder where the executable is located.

Monitoring of the Programming Voltage
In case of ERASE, PROM, and LOCK, the programming pulse voltage is measured by
the board, and a data string is sent back to the PC. The relation between the data and
the programming voltage is
DAT
V PROG = ------------ 6 2.485 V
4095
If the programming pulse voltage is out of the specification limits, the status bit is set to
“1”.
Examples:
– VPROG = 12.15 V, Data board PC:
STX 1 0 D 0 A 0 ETX
(DAT = 0 D 0 A)
– VPROG = 12.50 V, Data board PC:
STX 0 0 D 6 9 0 ETX

Programming of the Sensor
Definition of Programming Pulses
The sensor is addressed by modulating a serial telegram on the supply voltage. The
sensor answers with a serial telegram on the output pin.
The bits in the serial telegram have a different bit time for the VDD-line and the output.
The bit time for the VDD-line is defined through the length of the Sync bit at the beginning of each telegram. The bit time for the output is defined through the Acknowledge
bit.
A logical “0” is coded as no voltage change within the bit time. A logical “1” is coded as
a voltage change between 50% and 80% of the bit time. After each bit, a voltage
change occurs.
4.3.2.
Definition of the Telegram
Each telegram starts with the Sync bit (logical 0), 3 bits for the Command (COM), the
Command Parity bit (CP), 4 bits for the Address (ADR), and the Address Parity bit (AP).
There are 4 kinds of telegrams:
Write a register
After the AP bit, follow 14 Data bits (DAT) and the Data Parity bit (DP). If the telegram is
valid and the command has been processed, the sensor answers with an Acknowledge
bit (logical 0) on the output (see Fig. 4–2).
Read a register
After evaluating this command, the sensor answers with the Acknowledge bit, 14 Data
bits, and the Data Parity bit on the output (see Fig. 4–3).
Programming the
EEPROM cells
After evaluating this command, the sensor answers with the Acknowledge bit. After the
delay time tw, the supply voltage rises up to the programming voltage (see Fig. 4–4).
Activate a sensor
If more than one sensor is connected to the supply line, selection can be done by first
deactivating all sensors. The output of all sensors will be pulled to ground by the internal 10 k resistors. With an activate pulse on the appropriate output pin, an individual
sensor can be selected. All following commands will only be accepted from the activated sensor (see Fig. 4–5).

Telegram Codes
Sync Bit
Each telegram starts with the Sync bit. This logical “0” pulse defines the exact timing for
tp0.
Command Bits (COM)
The Command code contains 3 bits and is a binary number. Table 4–4 shows the available commands and the corresponding codes for the HAL805, HAL815, HAL817 and
HAL1000.
Command Parity Bit
(CP)
This Parity bit is “1” if the number of zeros within the 3 Command bits is uneven. The
Parity bit is “0”, if the number of zeros is even.
Address Bits (ADR)
The Address code contains 4 bits and is a binary number. Table 4–5 shows the available addresses for the HAL805, HAL815, HAL817 and HAL1000 registers.
Address Parity Bit (AP)
This Parity bit is “1” if the number of zeros within the 4 Address bits is uneven. The Parity bit is “0” if the number of zeros is even.
Data Bits (DAT)
The 14 Data bits contain the register information.
The registers use a different number formats for the Data bits. These formats are
explained in Section 4.3.4
In the Write command, the last bits are valid. If, for example, the TC register (6 bits) is
written, only the last 6 bits are valid.
In the Read command, the first bits are valid. If, for example, the TC register (6 bits) is
read, only the first 6 bits are valid.
Data Parity Bit (DP)
This parity bit is “1” if the number of zeros within the binary number is even. The parity
bit is “0” if the number of zeros is uneven.
Acknowledge
After each telegram, the output answers with the Acknowledge signal. This logical “0”
pulse defines the exact timing for tpOUT.

Programming Information
If the content of any register (except the lock registers) is to be changed, the desired
value must first be written into the corresponding RAM register. Before reading out the
RAM register again, the register value must be permanently stored in the EEPROM.
Permanently storing a value in the EEPROM is done by first sending an ERASE command followed by sending a PROM command. The address within the ERASE and
PROM commands is not important. ERASE and PROM act on all registers in parallel.
If all HAL805, HAL815, HAL817 and HAL1000 registers are to be changed, all writing
commands can be sent one after the other, followed by sending one ERASE and
PROM command at the end.
During all communication sequences, the customer has to check if the communication
with the sensor was successful. This means that the acknowledge and the parity bits
sent by the sensor have to be checked by the customer. If the Micronas programmer
board is used, the customer has to check the error flags sent from the programmer
board.
Note: For production and qualification tests, it is mandatory to set the Lock bit after
final adjustment and programming. The Lock function is active after the next
power-up of the sensor. Micronas also recommends sending an additional
ERASE command after sending the LOCK command (This is done automatically when the board command “l” is used for locking the sensor.).
The success of the Lock process should be checked by reading at least one
sensor register after locking and/or by an analog check of the sensor’s output
signal.
Electrostatic Discharges (ESD) may disturb the programming pulses. Please
take precautions against ESD.

Data Formats
The protocol between the programmer board and the Hall sensor defines fixed lengths
for the data, command, and address words to be transmitted:
– Command (CMD): 3 bit
– Address (ADR): 4 bit
– Data (DAT): 14 bit
– Command Parity (CP): 1 bit
– Address Parity (AP): 1 bit
– Data Parity (DP): 1 bit
Reminder: For communication with the programmer board, the 14 data bits are
encoded in four ASCII characters: DAT3, DAT2, DAT1, and DAT0.
As every register has a different length, not all of the 14 bits are used. Furthermore,
there is a difference between the write format (transfer board IC) and the read format
(transfer IC board). Table 4–6 shows which of the 14 bits are valid for each register
(write format and read format).

The Programming Procedure
The general programming procedure is described in detail for the HAL805 (HAL815/
HAL817).
The procedure for the HAL810 is quite similar. However, the multiprogramming (i.e. the
programming of more than one sensor connected to the same supply voltage) does not
apply for the HAL810. Additionally, some register names are different for the HAL810.

An example of a programming procedure is given in Fig. 4–6.
First, the programmer board has to be initialized. If more than one sensor is connected
to the same supply line, the sensors have to be addressed sequentially. This is done by
the multiprogramming loop: After deactivating all sensors, the sensor to be programmed is activated again by sending a pulse on the corresponding output line, followed by a dummy read command.
Note: The flow chart shown in Fig. 4–6 is intended as a simple example. The multiprogramming loop can also be done within the calibration procedure.
Please keep in mind that the board commands “e...”, “q...”, “m...”, and “t” cause the
board to send back an eight character string to the PC. This string must be read out of
the serial port before sending the next command.

The Calibration Procedure
The output characteristic is determined by four parameters:
– Clamp Low specifies the lower clamping voltage of the output curve.
– Clamp High specifies the higher clamping voltage of the output curve.
– VOQ corresponds to the output voltage at zero ADC-Readout.
– Sensitivity corresponds to the increase of the output voltage with magnetic field. A
sensitivity of “1” is equivalent to a voltage increase of 5 V at an increase of 2048 of
the ADC-Readout.
The following simple formula relates the analog output voltage to the ADC-Readout
(VDD is considered to be 5.0 V):
ADC-Readout 5 V- + V
V OUT = Sensitivity
------------------------------------------------------------------------------OQ
2048
The calibration procedure is shown in Fig. 4–7. The register values are intended as
example:
Step 1:
Programming of the parameters which do not require individual adjustment:
– Clamp Low, Clamp High, Filter Frequency, Magnetic Range, TC, and TCSQ.
Step 2:
Get the ADC-Readout value in the first calibration point and assign a nominal output
voltage (VOUT,1) to that point.
Step 3:
Get the ADC-Readout value in the second calibration point and assign a nominal output voltage (VOUT,2) to that point.
Step 4:
Calculate and program the values of SENSITIVITY and VOQ.
V OUT2 – V OUT1

Monitoring of the Programming Voltage
In case of ERASE, PROM, and LOCK, the programming pulse voltage is measured by
the board, and a data string is sent back to the PC. The relation between the data and
the programming voltage is
DAT
V PROG = ------------ 6 2.485 V
4095
If the programming pulse voltage is out of the specification limits, the status bit is set to
“1”.
Examples:
– VPROG = 12.15 V, Data Board PC:
STX 1 0 D 0 A 0 ETX
(DAT = 0 D 0 A)
– VPROG = 12.50 V, Data Board PC:
STX 0 0 D 6 9 0 ETX
(DAT = 0 D 6 9)

Programming of the Sensor
Definition of Programming Pulses
The sensor is addressed by modulating a serial telegram on the supply voltage. The
sensor answers with a serial telegram on the output pin.
The bits in the serial telegram have a different bit time for the VDD-line and the output.
The bit time for the VDD-line is defined through the length of the Sync bit at the beginning of each telegram. The bit time for the output is defined through the Acknowledge
bit.
A logical “0” is coded as no voltage change within the bit time. A logical “1” is coded as
a voltage change between 50% and 80% of the bit time. After each bit, a voltage
change occurs.
5.3.2.
Definition of the Telegram
Each telegram starts with the Sync bit (logical 0), 3 bits for the Command (COM), the
Command Parity bit (CP), 4 bits for the Address (ADR), and the Address Parity bit (AP).
There are 4 kinds of telegrams:
Write a register
After the AP bit, follow 14 Data bits (DAT) and the Data Parity bit (DP). If the telegram is
valid and the command has been processed, the sensor answers with an Acknowledge
bit (logical 0) on the output (see Fig. 5–2).
Read a register
After evaluating this command, the sensor answers with the Acknowledge bit, 14 Data
bits, and the Data Parity bit on the output (see Fig. 5–3).
Programming the
EEPROM cells
After evaluating this command, the sensor answers with the Acknowledge bit. After the
delay time tw, the supply voltage rises up to the programming voltage (see Fig. 5–4).
Activate a sensor
If more than one sensor is connected to the supply line, selection can be done by first
deactivating all sensors. The output of all sensors will be pulled to ground. With an Activate pulse on the appropriate output pin, an individual sensor can be selected. All following commands will only be accepted from the activated sensor (see Fig. 5–5).
Note: In case of HAL 82x, HAL83x, HAL 880 and HAL1002 an additional 10 k pulldown resistor is required during programming. Firmware rev. 1.33 can be used
alternatively.
Lock a sensor
40
To lock the EEPROM registers, the lock bit has to be set. In case of HAL 82x, HAL83x,
HAL880 and HAL1002 it is necessary to write the lock bit into the lock register (see
Fig. 5–2). If the telegram is valid and the command has been processed, the sensor
answers with an Acknowledge Bit (logical 0) on the output. In order to store the lock bit
permanently, an erase and program command have to be sent to the sensor. The is the
same procedure as mentioned above (see Programming the EEPROM cells and
Fig. 5–4). The EEPROM registers are locked after a power on reset. For HAL 805,
HAL 815, HAL817, HAL 810 and HAL1000 the lock command must be used.

Telegram Codes
Sync Bit
Each telegram starts with the Sync bit. This logical “0” pulse defines the exact timing for
tp0.
Command Bits (COM)
The Command code contains 3 bits and is a binary number. Table 5–4 shows the available commands and the corresponding codes for the HAL805, HAL815, HAL817 and
HAL1000 and Table 5-5 for the HAL82x, HAL83x, HAL880 and HAL1002 registers.
Command Parity Bit
(CP)
This parity bit is “1” if the number of zeros within the 3 Command bits is uneven. The
parity bit is “0”, if the number of zeros is even.
Address Bits (ADR)
The Address code contains 4 bits and is a binary number. Table 5–5 and Table 5-6
shows the available addresses for the HAL805, HAL815, HAL817 and HAL1000 registers and Table 5-5 for the HAL82x, HAL83x, HAL880 and HAL1002 registers.
Address Parity Bit (AP)
This parity bit is “1” if the number of zeros within the 4 address bits is uneven. The parity bit is “0” if the number of zeros is even.
Data Bits (DAT)
The 14 Data bits contain the register information.
The registers use a different number formats for the Data bits. These formats are
explained in Section 5.3.4
In the Write command, the last bits are valid. If, for example, the TC register (6 bits) is
written, only the last 6 bits are valid.
In the Read command, the first bits are valid. If, for example, the TC register (6 bits) is
read, only the first 6 bits are valid.
Data Parity Bit (DP)
This parity bit is “1” if the number of zeros within the binary number is even. The parity
bit is “0” if the number of zeros is uneven.
Acknowledge
After each telegram, the output answers with the Acknowledge signal. This logical “0”
pulse defines the exact timing for tpOUT.

APPLICATION NOTE

Programming Information
If the content of any register (except the lock registers) is to be changed, the desired
value must first be written into the corresponding RAM register. Before reading out the
RAM register again, the register value must be permanently stored in the EEPROM.
Permanently storing a value in the EEPROM is done by first sending an ERASE command followed by sending a PROM command. For HAL 82x, HAL83x, HAL880 and
HAL1002 the address within the ERASE and PROM commands must be zero. ERASE
and PROM act on all registers in parallel.
Note: To store data in the GP register (only HAL82x, HAL83x, HAL880 and HAL1002)
it is necessary to set bit number 0 of the MODE register to one, before sending
an ERASE and PROM command. Otherwise the data stored in the GP register
will not be changed.
If all HAL805, HAL815, HAL817, HAL82x, HAL83x, HAL880, HAL1000 and HAL1002
registers are to be changed, all writing commands can be sent one after the other, followed by sending one ERASE and PROM command at the end.
During all communication sequences, the customer has to check if the communication
with the sensor was successful. This means that the acknowledge and the parity bits
sent by the sensor have to be checked by the customer. If the Micronas programmer
board is used, the customer has to check the error flags sent from the programmer
board.
Note: For production and qualification tests, it is mandatory to set the Lock bit after
final adjustment and programming. The Lock function is active after the next
power-up of the sensor. In case of HAL 805/815/817/810/1000 Micronas also
recommends sending an additional ERASE command after sending the LOCK
command (This is done automatically when the board command “l” is used for
locking the sensor.).
The success of the Lock process should be checked by reading at least one
sensor register after locking and/or by an analog check of the sensor’s output
signal.
Electrostatic Discharges (ESD) may disturb the programming pulses. Please
take precautions against ESD.

Data Formats
The protocol between the programmer board and the Hall sensor defines fixed lengths
for the data, command, and address words to be transmitted:
– Command (CMD): 3 bit
– Address (ADR): 4 bit
– Data (DAT): 14 bit
– Command Parity (CP): 1 bit
– Address Parity (AP): 1 bit
– Data Parity (DP): 1 bit
Reminder: For communication with the programmer board, the 14 data bits are
encoded in four ASCII characters: DAT3, DAT2, DAT1, and DAT0.
As every register has a different length, not all of the 14 bits are used. Furthermore,
there is a difference between the write format (transfer board IC) and the read format
(transfer IC board). Table 5–7 and Table 5-7 show which of the 14 bits are valid for
each register (write format and read format).

The Programming Procedure
Programming Procedure for HAL805, HAL810, HAL815, HAL817
and HAL1000
The general programming procedure is described in detail for the HAL805 (HAL815/
HAL817).
The procedure for the HAL810 is quite similar. However, the multiprogramming (i.e. the
programming of more than one sensor connected to the same supply voltage) does not
apply for the HAL810. Additionally, some register names are different for the HAL810.

An example of a programming procedure is given in Fig. 5–6.
First, the programmer board has to be initialized. If more than one sensor is connected
to the same supply line, the sensors have to be addressed sequentially. This is done by
the multiprogramming loop: After deactivating all sensors, the sensor to be programmed is activated again by sending a pulse on the corresponding output line, followed by a dummy read command.
Note: The flow chart given in Fig. 5–6 is intended as a simple example. The multiprogramming loop can also be done within the calibration procedure.
Please keep in mind that the board commands “e...”, “q...”, “m...”, and “t” cause the
board to send back an eight character string to the PC. This string must be read out of
the serial port before sending the next command.

The Calibration Procedure
The output characteristic is determined by four parameters:
– Clamp Low specifies the lower clamping voltage of the output curve.
– Clamp High specifies the higher clamping voltage of the output curve.
– VOQ corresponds to the output voltage at zero ADC-Readout.
– Sensitivity corresponds to the increase of the output voltage with magnetic field. A
sensitivity of “1” is equivalent to a voltage increase of 5 V at an increase of 2048 of
the ADC-Readout.
The following simple formula relates the analog output voltage to the ADC-Readout
(VDD is considered to be 5.0 V):
ADC-Readout 5 V- + V
V OUT = Sensitivity
------------------------------------------------------------------------------OQ
2048
The calibration procedure is shown in Fig. 5–7. The register values are intended as an
example:
Step 1:
Programming of the parameters which do not require individual adjustment:
– Clamp Low, Clamp High, Filter Frequency, Magnetic Range, TC, and TCSQ.
Step 2:
Get the ADC-Readout value in the first calibration point and assign a nominal output
voltage (VOUT,1) to that point.
Step 3:
Get the ADC-Readout value in the second calibration point and assign a nominal output voltage (VOUT,2) to that point.
Step 4:
Calculate and program the values of SENSITIVITY and VOQ.
V OUT2 – V OUT1
2048
Sensitivity = -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----------- ADCReadout 2 – ADCReadout 1 5V
SENSITIVITY = Sensitivity 2048
5V
V OQ = V OUT1 – ADCReadout 1 Sensitivity -----------2048
1024
VOQ = V OQ -----------5V

Step 5:
Store the registers permanently.
The “Store” sequence is given in Fig. 5–8. The permanent storing of data into the
EEPROM memory is a two-step process. First, all zero bits (ERASE), then all one bits
(PROM) are written.
