DESCRIPTION
The A1468 is an optimized Hall effect sensing IC that provides
a user-friendly solution for digital ring-magnet sensing, or
when coupled with a magnet, ferromagnetic target sensing,
in three-wire applications. The small device package can be
easily assembled into applications for use in conjunction with
a wide variety of target shapes and sizes.
The integrated circuit incorporates dual Hall effect elements
with a 2.2 mm spacing and signal processing that switches
in response to differential magnetic signals created by ring-
magnet poles. The circuitry contains a sophisticated digital
circuit to reduce system offsets, to calibrate the gain for air-
gapâindependent switchpoints, and to achieve true zero-speed
operation. Signal optimization occurs at power-on through
the combination of offset and gain adjust, and is maintained
throughout the operating time with the use of a running-mode
calibration. The running-mode calibration provides immunity
to environmental effects such as micro-oscillations of the target
or sudden air gap changes.
The device is ideally suited to obtaining speed and duty cycle
information in ring-magnetâbased speed, position, and timing
applications, such as in speedometers.
The A1468 is available in a 4-pin SIP (suffix K). The package
is lead (Pb) free, with 100% matte tin leadframe plating.
