HAL® 37xy
Second-Generation 3D HAL® Sensor Family
with Superior Angular Accuracy
The HAL 37xy family is the second sensor
generation using Micronas’ proprietary
3D HAL technology, which offers a further
improvement of the angular performance.
Compared to the first generation, a 30%
lower angular error has been achieved.
Operation with magnetic fields down to
20 mT is enabled thanks to the improved
technology. HAL 3715 and HAL 372x pro-
vide a linear, ratiometric analog output sig-
nal with integrated wire-break detection
working with pull-up or pull-down resistors.
HAL 373x features digital output formats
such as PWM and SENT SAEJ2716 rev.
2010. The digital output format is customer
programmable.
The sensors can measure three magnetic
field components BX, BY, and BZ. This
enables a set of potential applications for
position detection, such as wide distance,
angle or through-shaft angular measure-
ments. On-chip signal processing calcu-
lates the angle out of two of the magnetic
field components and converts this value
into an output signal. The sensor exhibits
excellent drift performance over the specified
temperature range resulting in a new class
of accuracy for angular or linear measure-
ments. The sensor features an arbitrarily
programmable stepwise linear characteris-
tic for linearization of the output signal.
Major characteristics can be adjusted to the
magnetic circuit by programming the non-
volatile memory.
The sensors contain advanced on-board
diagnostic features that enhance fail-safe
detection. The devices are designed for
automotive and industrial applications and
operate in the junction temperature range
from 40 °C up to 170 °C. The sensors are
available in a very small four-pin leaded
transistor package TO92UP, as well as in a
SOIC8 package.
